Yes 😭 my bf and I joke that he is a man of few words, whereas I cannot shut the fuck up — sometimes I worry I’m exhausting him but I usually just ask him and he assures me he doesn’t mind. If you’re bf’s like mine he’s probably pretty easy-going, but it also doesn’t hurt to just ask him!

On the other hand though there are moments where I want to shake him into responding with more than a monosyllable 😭

Haha same! I definitely have asked him i still get in my head at times but i just choose to listen to him because he’s been like this our whole relationship. His listening skills are one of my favorite qualities about him😌

Real! The only time it honestly bothers me is during conflict bc I’ll give a whole Ted talk on why I feel the way I do and he’ll give me a two word response and I’m like pleeeaaase elaborate 😭 besides that though it works very well lmao
