Dh on his phone so bloomin much!

[Scifigeekgirl]

(Mainly) happily married to Dh of 20 years but am getting increasingly fed up with how he is on his phone so much of the time when he’s home.
Oh my goodness, the endless scrolling, WhatsApping, checking emails, X, games and then all over again, it’s driving me mad and I think it’s rude.
It’s like the phone is the priority and I just happen to be in the room too.
Ive asked him to put the phone away for a while and sometimes he will but he’s always huffy about it and it just creeps back anyway.
I wanted more from my evenings with him than this! AIBU?

Evenings with him doing what?

Find something more interesting to do together. What do you do in the evenings? Appoint him chef two days a week. Invite people over. Go bowling with friends or find a sport together.

I'm male. In my 60s and found myself doing the same every evening. I'd just constantly flick from one platform to another scrolling endless videos.
It got so bad that my attention span was suffering and I couldn't concentrate on anything on TV as it was too long.
In the end I deleted all the social apps and that takes away the temptation.

The internet is a gateway to things which are far more interesting than a boring life in boring town.

What do you do otherwise? Maybe the alternative is boring, if its just say watching TV - or trying to talk when you have nothing to talk about.

My husband and I play video games together. Maybe you can both think of something you both want to do together?
