Hi there. I have a fantastic husband apart from in one department. He is quite unsocial. Not anti-social. He just doesn't initiate conversation with people and stands there like a lemon when I am chatting to others. He is well liked within his own group of friends, however, none of them lives near us, so it is always me that arranges any social activity, with my friends.
I find it a big strain when we go out, as the onus is always on me to keep it all flowing. For example, the school fete yesterday, I made a point of going and chatting to several of the other parents, whilst he just stood there. If there was ever a lull in conversation, he is never there to back me up, so to speak and I now find these situations quite exhausting.
I have friends of my own and a social life but it is always up to me to organise and keep it all together. I am not an extrovert myself but always make an effort with people and am genuinely interested in them.
Does anyone else have a partner like this? Does anyone have any tips? I know he isn't going to change, so maybe I just need some of you who are in the same boat to empathise!
