Why Does My Husband Not Hear What I Say?

[candycane]

My husband works really hard. That's why he sometimes asks me over and over again what I said. Do you think he is not interested in me or is it because of his work?

He might have lost some hearing. If he’s carrying stress, his mind may wander after he asks. He might just be patronizing you if he knows you like to jabber. If you want to increase the chances he remembers something you say, you’ll need to compound your words with some kind of mnemonic device. Little tricks to help him commit things to memory. If you choose and apply them properly, he doesn’t even need to know that you’re doing it.

You sound like my SO, who often complains "you never hear what I say." In my case, I don't always hear what she says because I'm busy thinking or doing something else. Make sure you get his attention when telling him something.

[CA4444]

If he has a lot on his mind then he naturally needs to filter information… just like we would do… in this case best to stick to avoid details and unimportant talks I would say… Sometimes I also lack focus or memory and it’s not because I’m not interested it’s because I’m tired or for some reason I can’t focus.

[AI Opinion]

I've noticed that sometimes when people are very busy, they don't hear what is being said, even when they are listening. Moreover, I think there is no difference between men and women in this. But of course, there may be a different reason. I briefly mentioned the possibilities below, you may have a look :)

Reasons Why Your Spouse Won't Listen to You

We've all been there. You're trying to explain something important to your spouse, but they just won't listen. It's frustrating, and it can feel like you're talking to a brick wall. But why is this? Why won't your spouse listen to you?
There could be a number of reasons. Maybe they're preoccupied with something else and not really hearing what you're saying. Or maybe they just don't think what you have to say is important. Whatever the reason, it can be frustrating.

Here are some tips on how to get your spouse to listen to you:

1. Make sure you have their attention.

If they're looking at their phone or watching TV, they're not really listening to you. Get their full attention before you start talking.

2. Keep it short and to the point.

If you're rambling on, they're likely to tune you out.

3. Make eye contact.

This shows that you're sincere and interested in what they have to say.

4. Be patient.

If they're not getting it right away, don't get frustrated. Try explaining it in a different way.

5. Be respectful.

If you're yelling or being condescending, they're not going to want to listen to you.

If you're having trouble getting your spouse to listen to you, try these tips. With a little patience and understanding, you'll be able to get your point across. It's no secret that communication is key in any relationship.

But what do you do when your spouse won't listen to you?

Here are four possible reasons why your spouse isn't listening to you, and what you can do about it.

1. Your spouse is distracted.

We all have a finite amount of attention to give, and if your spouse is feeling overwhelmed or stressed, their attention may be elsewhere. If you think this might be the case, try asking your spouse if they're okay, or if there's anything on their mind. If they're able to open up, you can work together to find a solution to whatever is causing the distraction. If not, try to be understanding and give them some space.

2. Your spouse doesn't understand what you're saying.

It's possible that your spouse isn't ignoring you, but simply doesn't understand what you're trying to say. This can be especially true if the two of you are dealing with a difficult issue. In this case, it's important to be patient and clear in your communication. Try to avoid using jargon or acronyms, and focus on explaining things in simple terms.

3. Your spouse doesn't agree with you.

If your spouse doesn't agree with you on an issue, they may be less likely to listen to what you have to say. This doesn't mean that you should avoid disagreement altogether, but it is important to remember that you're not always going to see eye-to-eye. When you're discussing a controversial topic, try to focus on finding common ground, rather than trying to convince your spouse to see things your way.

4. Your spouse is feeling defensive.

If your spouse feels like they're being attacked, they're not going to be open to listening to you. This can happen even if you're not intending to be critical. If you think your spouse is feeling defensive, back off and give them some time to cool down. Once they're feeling more relaxed, you can try again.

If your spouse isn't listening to you, it can be frustrating and even hurtful. But it's important to remember that there may be a reason why. By trying to understand the reason, you can be more effective in your communication and hopefully resolve the issue.

What Do You Do When Your Husband Don't Listen to you?

It can be incredibly frustrating when you feel like you're not being heard by your husband. You may feel like you're talking to a brick wall, and it can be tough to know what to do in this situation.

There are a few things you can do to try to get your husband to listen to you:

• First, make sure that you're really communicating with him. This means using words that he'll understand and being clear about what you want. If you're unclear, he may tune you out or misunderstand what you're trying to say.
• Second, try to avoid nagging. If you're constantly harping on him about something, he's likely to tune you out. Instead, try to have a calm conversation about what you're hoping to change.
• Third, try to be understanding. If you can see where he's coming from, it may be easier to get him to see your point of view. If you can empathize with him, he may be more likely to listen to you.
• Finally, don't give up. If you keep at it, eventually he may come around and start listening to you. Just remember to be patient and to keep communicating.

He’s just stressed out at work and be more patient with him.

[exitseven]

He probably is thinking about work and then he is worried about the recession and the cost of heating oil this winter. He also has this pain in his leg that has been bothering him for the last few weeks. It could be a lot of things.

[Phoenix98]

Probably stressed out from work and just has a lot on his mind. So he may forget from time to time.

[RuthlessAggression]

He likely does hear you, he just might be "cherry picking" what he hears, like trump

[Subarugirl]

Early on set dementia? Does he have any other memory issues?

[TacosRAwesome]

He might need a few moments to catch up that you're telling him something important.

[Sabretooth]

''... huh? you say something? wanna fuck?'' lol!

[Anonymous]
