Wow, this sounds like me and my boyfriend. I’m naturally quiet and introverted around people that I don’t know but too talkative with my boyfriend. I also ask lots of questions for the sake of conversation because he is much quieter than I am. I’m trying to connect with him but this isn’t the best way obviously. It is really causing a problem for us and I’m in the process of pushing him away because of it. He would rather relax and be quiet. He will engage in conversation to appease me but it’s draining for him because I ask lots of questions. One question leads to another which leads to another. This of course makes him not look forward to talking to me. For some reason I just can’t stop. It wouldn’t be a problem if it were just a short dialog going back and forth for a short while but it’s like I’m trying to unravel his soul or something. It’s like I’m interviewing him. LoL Actually it’s not funny. I’ve been like this in other relationships too so it’s just not him. We don’t argue but he does become cold and irritable. I need help! I love him but I don’t want to drive him away with this behavior.
