Make a rule about no work talk at the dinner table, or in bedroom. Believe me, I know it’s annoying cause that’s all my husband does is talk about work,or it’s the bills,or it’s the kids. Enjoy it, cause I find out alot of drama and stuff from his job, and it’s the same as when I’ve got drama with my friend or something. It’s different. But it’s his way of expressing his feelings from a tiring day, or work load. You’re his safe space, enjoy it even though it’s annoying
My husband tells me I talk about work all the time (teacher) and my plants. I figure it’s his job to listen to me… I’m sure a lot of people disagree but I have to talk to someone about it. All I have to do is at least act like hes listening.
We talk about work while I make dinner over a cocktail and then we move on!

Just tell the guy you need a break from the work talk once in a while lol if you really need it, it costs nothing to be a good listener to your life partner. Escaping the house is another option, although more rude if you do it in the middle of conversation 
There is a woman out there who will listen with rapt attention. If you do not want to listen to him he will find a woman who will.

I’m gonna guess he works so much that he doesn’t do anything else to talk about. Get him a hobby or plan a trip

Can you not bring up anything else ?? He’s probably talking about that all the time Bc he can’t think of nothing else to talk with you about… so he uses you to vent. If he wanted to talk about something else he would
Don’t tell him you don’t want to hear about it, just bounce different subjects off of him when something comes up while he’s talking. This should give him the signal to change gears…
You can also keep eye contact with him to show that you are listening, but keep your responses short and don’t give open-ended replies or questions…
For example he is going on and on about how his day went…you can reply “I’m sorry you had a stressful day honey, I can tell that whatever happened bothered you because you’re a little wound up. Let’s have a beer and forget about it…Also, what movie do you want to watch, I saw this movie trailer today about etc.”

Meet him at the Door in your BIRTHDAY SUIT!!!

Everyone needs someone to listen to them. Sounds like he’s not getting what he needs. Figure out what or why he feels he’s not important either to you or at work. You could also Give him something else TO talk about. No I’m not talking about sex. Find something y’all can enjoy doing together. Maybe a hobby if some sort like fishing or camping or even reading books. If your marriage is boring or unsatisfying figure out how to save it. It’s ending and you don’t even see it coming. God bless. Oh! There you go …join a Church Family and get active in it by getting involved in a Bible study or something to help the Church Family thrive.
Establish a time frame for both of you to talk about your days and vent. That’s what me and my hubby do. We call it the “bitching hour”. It’s not always at the same time haha but we always ask “permission to bitch?”. It works well for us.
I mean it doesn’t work for everyone obviously but sometimes just being straight forward about it works lol If I’m having a day where I’m annoyed by everything including my husband babbling about something I really don’t care about I can look at him and say “honey, I love you, but today I really don’t care bc I’m just tired and annoyed.” He doesn’t offense to it. He says “okay honey I’m sorry I love you too how can I help?”

So…I am that person…
I do talk about work a lot.
In fact I’m know that I am borderline obsessing.
The thing is that my job causes me A LOT of anxiety.
Massive. Massive. Massive.
Amounts of anxiety.
I am so afraid of screwing up, getting fired, letting my family down.
I spend my entire shift. Smiling. Faking my feelings. Faking enthusiasm. Faking contentedness. Trying to do everything right. Trying to not screw up.
And…when I clock out? I’m ready to fall apart.
No matter how much I want to stop thinking about work…if I’m not thinking about work I’m worrying about something else and I’m obsessing/talking about that.
I actually had a meltdown/panic attack today that lasted hours. My head still hurts. My stomach still hurts. I’m sitting here watching paranormal shows to calm down.
I am absolutely not trying to be selfish…
My anxiety is just that out of control right now.
Here’s a few things that help me:
- being honest with myself and others about how I’m feeling I notice I talk more/obsess more when I’m trying to convince myself that I love my job…when I don’t. It’s like I’m trying to convince myself I do.
- Distractions. Distractions. Distractions. Don’t talk to me about something serious…my mind will automatically revert to my serious issue which is work. but If you get me talking about hobbies, the kids, or fun plans…I can lighten up a lot.
- Patience. Let my word vomit run it’s course.
- Gentle honesty. Tell me I’m obsessing and my mind needs a break from work and I can/will put that effort in to switch off.

So my husband likes to talk about his job a lot too and I don’t mind but the way I see if -he goes to work 50-70 hours a week. That is his daily life. While I’m at home with the kids dealing with whatever his mind is set on his job while mine is set on my tasks and such. We tend to talk about what we think about most. Idk. Hard to explain but from my mind it makes sense

First, be glad he talks to you. Some men don’t bother talking to their wives and kids. They come home and bury their noses in game systems or their phones. Second, he must like his job or he wouldn’t find it so interesting to talk about. Third, try listening enough to think of questions to ask about his job. Let him tell you about stuff. Then weave in stuff about your day. While you were doing this, this was going on here. Now what was going on at this time? Oh ok, this was happening here. Would that work? Then ask him about vacation time. Maybe suggest things you’d like to do with him when he had time off work. Or ask if they’ll be real busy late Friday. Would it work for you to pack a few things and the two of you take off for the weekend? Maybe that would help. Maybe it’s worth a try. The change in scenery might change the subject after awhile.

A listing ear is always nice expressly if it’s a demanding job. Give it a time limit then change the subject to something you both enjoy 
like a hobby you both enjoy or snuggles with a good movie might help. I wouldn’t say anything it’s good he feels he has a best friend in his partner
In today’s world, be thankful he has a job and even more thankful that he likes it enough to talk about it with you.

Dude you suck all he wants to do is talk about his job lol he could do it with a side chick lol maybe even just a female that works his “demanding “ job
… you’re his person. Be thankful he talks to you about work. Talk about what you did that day and see if he listens. If he cuts you off to talk about work, politely tell him that’s not what you’re talking about right now, you’re talking about your day and what happened with you.

Him ur over hearing about it

Lol just tell him straight up it’s not that serious lol. I get it, my husband likes talking about his job to but it doesn’t bother me… I like knowing about his job and how he feels about it.
I’ve actually talked to my husband about this. Ya know, they spend almost MOST of their days there and my husband just comes home and talks about his day, everyday. So I get it but there’s got to be SOME break period. Like when he gets home and wants wind down time, I usually try and give him a couple of hours to check his messages and shit I ask him to stop talking about work usually before dinner. That’s our time and then we go for a walk 
play ball with the dog and then watch a little tv and go to bed! Once and awhile, work talk will come up BUT we’re still working on it LOL I totally understand what you’re saying because it drives me crazy as well!!! Maybe just talk to your husband about how you feel
Be thankful that he’s talking to you about it

There’s a difference between occasionally sharing something noteworthy or especially frustrating and passive aggressively pissing and moaning about work on a daily basis.
there should be a rule that u should make and he agrees with u on this - which what happens at work stays at work unless it is something they u yourself needs to know about! and for you whatever u say that has nothing really to do with u should stay to yourself - u both should ask eah other questions like how was your day today ! this way things hopefully will stay here needed .
Get a fucking job… some people work…
My boyfriend is the same way but I know it’s just his way of decompressing I’ve learned that even if it’s annoying or I don’t want to hear it that I’d rather him get it out than hold it in he loves and hates his job he’s hated at work (not by co-workers) so when he comes home no matter what time of day or night he comes home I’m all ears because he needs to know that even though I don’t want to hear it I will because I’m his safe space and the love of his life and he needs that from me

I feel bad I do that to my husband. I have a demanding job. I work for the United States postal service and most of our conversations are about my job. I think it’s because we get so frustrated that we feel our partner will hear our venting and calm us down. Mine tells me to find a new job but I won’t find anything like the job I have now. I make great money have a 401k tsp and very good health benefits. I feel like I can’t walk away
Bring something new to the conversation like porn that might change his way of thinkin.
I would rather my husband talk to me about anything then not at all. I am bad about not talking much so I talk about work just to have a conversation because I can’t really think of anything else. Maybe he’s just trying to talk and that’s all he really knows since that’s all he does all day. I get not wanting to hear it but it’s better then silence.

Simply state “Shut the f—- up”

I’ve had this issue for 7 years now with my boyfriend. I know it’s hard to listen to at first, but you get used to it. Sometimes they have no one but you to talk to at the end of the day or just want to vent to their significant other whom they love. I just sit back and listen anymore because it upsets him if I ignore him and then more problems happen. You just need to listen, maybe speak up and make an agreement, like 30 mins or an hour a day to talk about it and no bringing if up unless necessary. Both of your guys happiness matters!
