I'll show him your comment and maybe that will help convince him. Glad your husband's hearing has improved with the aid, and I hope he has completely recovered from his fall. Thanks Mary!<br /><br />Valerie - Wise words, but I do wish that I was more patient! Thanks Valerie! <br /><br />Rosalind - Ah the effects of matzo! I try not to eat too much of it, but I can't resist the chocolate leftovers! I agree that selective hearing is probably a built-in defense mechanism for men! Happy Pesach to you and your family!<br /><br />Yvonne - Opposite ends are the worst, or even just a room away if the washing machine or dishwasher is running! I can't hear well in those situations either and it drives me crazy! Thanks Yvonne!<br /><br />Susan - Your "wife filter" line is classic. It's almost like they know they only have a certain amount of hearing for the day, and they don't want to waste it on us! Thanks Susan!<br /><br />L.G. - Maybe we should try tuning them out for awhile and see how they like it! It would be an interesting experiment. <br />Thanks L.G.!Empty Nest Insiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10074223969046687064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7345934324603392493.post-1216249989434025212012-04-09T11:24:10.668-07:002012-04-09T11:24:10.668-07:00It's something in the male DNA for sure.

(Maybe because we talk too much?)

Mr A almost always responds to any statement from me with, "What?" If I'm feeling bolshy I don't bother to repeat myself but carry on with the conversation and he always knows what I'm talking about. I think it's a habit... or maybe he hopes I'll stop talking for a bit. No way!<br /><br />Hope you're having a lovely Pesach too.

My husba...Have you been observing our household? My husband had selective hearing for years, and still does. However, I finally convinced him he needed hearing aids. He got his first pair reluctantly at about age 50. Unfortunately, they were the old style that's been around for years. Consequently, he only wore them when he went to work or we were out. Why should he leave his hearing aids in when we were alone at home!!!! Finally his hearing got so bad that the digital kind was the route to go. They are well worth every expensive cent they cost. And, he wears them much more than he did the first pair he got. Good luck - at some point you'll have to convince your hubby that he really needs hearing aids. Yes, some is no doubt selective hearing, but it could also mean that his hearing is starting to go.Mariodacatsmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06040681324029176934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7345934324603392493.post-45064473046221330982012-04-09T06:03:17.176-07:002012-04-09T06:03:17.176-07:00When you live with someone who is hard of hearing ...When you live with someone who is hard of hearing AND practices selective hearing it is important to keep your sense of humour.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7345934324603392493.post-53823224718992013052012-04-09T04:38:07.586-07:002012-04-09T04:38:07.586-07:00that's so nice to read
