Hahaha....same here! Get same response...."you didn't ask a question"! Drives me nuts too.....but in grand scale of things not worth getting upset over! Maybe a 'man' thing smile

Luckygirl, my DH used to do that. Drove me crackers!

I would expect at least an OK. Very rude of him, really, to ignore you.

Nonnie Fri 10-May-19 15:50:43

But do they do it to other people?

Atqui Fri 10-May-19 15:25:51

In the mathematical sense of the wordsmile

Atqui Fri 10-May-19 15:25:04

So far it seems my H is the normal one then!!!!

Atqui Fri 10-May-19 15:23:25

No Jane not an engineer. Could think of some other words but better not print them!

Join the club. No, he is not an engineer.

Atqui is your DH an engineer by any chance?

I used to joke that I could enter the room naked and he would not look up! His Mum warned me when I married him that if I wanted to speak to him whilst reading he would finish his sentence, put his finger on his place, and slowly look up. She said it drove her mad.

So if you say ‘i have won the lottery’ it will be dismissed as a statement ?

GrannyGravy13 Fri 10-May-19 14:29:35

Yep mine has that certificate also!!!

Mine too, I played him at his own game and he said that I was going deaf ! It was fun though , might start again ha ha .

No, I think they go on a course for this sort of buggerance factor. Mine got the diploma.

I’m seeking reassurance that I’m normal! If you walked into a room in the evening where your partner was just pottering ( not reading or concentrating)! and you said “ I’m going up to have a bath now”, wouldn't you expect a response such as “0k see you soon”? Mine ignored me so I repeated what I said twice. I was told ( when I asked why) that it was a statement and didn’t need a response.
