Reply To: “He Hides His Friendship With Me From His Girlfriend”

My mom’s brother calls her all the time when he’s driving somewhere because he just wants to talk to someone. He’s married, but like, my mom is retired and his wife is busy. And I’m sure he can gab about stuff with his sister he can’t necessarily with his wife, or it’s different. Anyway, he does not care if she’s cooking or doing whatever. I don’t think he even asks her if she’s busy, he just assumes he can talk her ear off when he wants to. This feels a bit like that, but on steroids. Like Wendy says, there are few or no other ppl who are willing to chat with my uncle like that for long periods, and on demand.
