You know my methods
|
Every week I post a genuine issue from my bulging postbag and i invite the citizens of Tibb to reply with advice:
Dear LT: 'How can I stop my husband holding court at parties?' My husband and I used to be extremely sociable: we went out a lot, and kept an open house. Friends used to visit us almost every weekend. That has changed in the course of time. I recently began to notice that my husband gesticulates too much at the parties we still occasionally attend. He does it as if according to a pattern. First, he catches people’s attention and then holds that attention, raising his voice, speaking faster and faster, mobilising his hands to gestures, like tossing pancakes or throwing his arms like crucified Jesus. I believe he thinks his speeches, because that’s what they are, are extremely interesting: he tackles what I call “heavy problems”. When he is in full flow, I notice that people look around trying to interrupt, change the subject or say something themselves. But no, my husband must be the leader of conversation. I feel we are invited out less and less and worry it’s because friends don’t want to subject themselves to his arm-waving and speechifying. How can I tell him to change his body language, to try to listen more and generally calm down? Evita, Maidstone Last edited by LeatherTrumpet; 31-07-2019 at 11:08 AM. |

I suggest never going out again, or if you do tying his hand behind his back

Dear evita....stop dressing like a frump when you go out with your husband, then his wandering hands may wander somewhere else.

She might suggest her husband finds himself a hobby while she finds someone else to go to parties with.
Oh!... Oh!... She needs a gay mate. They're well turned out, stand their round, not afraid to dance and you don't have to **** them at the end of the evening. Last edited by Livia; 22-07-2019 at 03:36 PM. |

It’s refreshing they go to parties together they need to go in the garden behind the shed and get giggy.

Maybe she should stop being such a judgmental cow and realise that people probably are interested in what he is saying and realise that she is the dull one and the reason they get invited less and less is because she stands there all night looking grumpy giving evils to her husband who people like
