I have a lovely DH (been together 15 years) who is extremely kind and considerate but I've recently started to feel like he's not that interested in my life and what's going on unless I bring stuff up and tell him.
If I start a conversation about my job, for example, he listens and asks pertinent questions but he rarely starts such a conversation off his own bat.
I'm pretty chatty and feel I'm very good at checking in with him on his life stuff. He's a good conversationalist but more considered than me and doesn't check in on me as often as I do on him. Perhaps that's because I always beat him to it by telling him things that are happening with me?
I guess what I'm trying to work out in my head is whether it's just a difference in conversational styles or is he just not that motivated by my life to bother to ask and find out whats going on? If I put this question directly to him, he would protest and reassure me that he is interested.
