Are all guys inherently self centered? I waited all day for him to ask ab my presentation (which he knew I was very nervous about!) and I still had to guide us to the topic myself. He didn’t ask a thing, just if it was good. Then yaps ab himself for 1hr

It’s more that we are just dumb lol like, it’s not malicious but most guys just don’t ask out of forgetfulness

I mean… you just said he asked if it was good. For most guys, that’s about the extent of it for us. It’s either good, bad, or meh. We’re not really inclined to ask for more details unless you give them.

Men aren’t inherently self centered, it’s more of an immaturity and only child mentality. Or he has zero genuine interest in you and your life so it’s not that he’s always self centered but just is with you (honestly this is worse than someone being all around bad imo)

My brother is like that too. It’s not all of them, but there’s definitely a large faction. He blames it on his adhd and that multiple people have told him that, but my other brother has it too and this isn’t a problem with him.

But even after I bring it up myself? Is he just not interested in what I’ve been excited to tell him?

It’s more just being a short level of detail interest. It was good? That’s usually enough, not worried with the details

you genuinely wouldn’t ask ur girl ab how it went though? He only asked bc I brought it up, and then right back to himself. I wish he’d care a little more

He also might be functioning with the mentality that people will just bring up what they want and talk about it without being asked (probably the same way he does and that why he’s yapping) so it might be something you just need to jump into the conversation and just talk

If I ask you how it went and you said “good” then what else do I really need to know? You would tell me if it went badly, would you not?

Yeah but he knew I’d receive feedback on writing I worked hard on (it was a workshop too, but I won’t get into details lol) I feel like there’s more to know, I was excited ab the positive feedback, like the entire point was to tell him about the details

That’s valid, he also has more knowledge of the importance for you

You wouldn’t want to know about an important event for your gf? It’s Something i worked hard on, expressed being nervous for, and then waited all day to talk only to have the conversation centered on posters in ur dorm. To me that was upsetting, and it felt like he didn’t care enough to ask about this thing I had been talking about for weeks

Yeah that sounds like a rough situation. Have you tried talking to him about how that makes you feel ever?

If I can ask questions to keep the conversation going about him why can’t he take an interest in me?

Not really, it’s still new, and we were texting. But like he stopped answering, saying he was busy when I tried to say more, and then when he texted me an hour later he change the topic. But I suppose talking is what normal people do LOL

Yeah, it’s something I noticed with my own brother and male friends too. Even my gay friends are like this 😭
