My wife gets mad at me for not answering them when they ask me questions or acknowledging when they make statements to me. I’ve been with them over half my life and a few months ago I FINALLY found a way to describe it lol. I told them “sometimes you talk out loud to yourself”. Because when they’re talking to themselves I don’t need to answer, so I’ll tune out, but sometimes they start talking to me and I don’t realize it because I’m tired or distracted. This was after we were both exhausted from the gym.
My SO put it perfectly when I apologized for talking too much, she said “it’s ok, I know you like to listen to yourself”
And honestly, I do talk to myself when nobody’s around and there isn’t a huge difference in what I’m saying in either context.
I’m not having a conversation with myself, I’m just kind of thinking out loud.
