This past weekend we went to my spouse’s younger brothers house. For dinner we sat around the table and just chatted while the kids were in the basement playing.
When we were on our way home he was in a really bad mood. He said, “I’m not even there. I’m not a part of it. I can’t join the conversation.”
He sat at that table looking at everyone, without really looking at them. It was like he was staring at something beyond them. And he only said 1 sentence.
Then in the car, he wasn’t looking at me. He holds entire conversations without actually using his eyes.
I’m wondering what this is. It’s becoming more frequent. He sits there and appears to be sleeping, but he’s awake. Or, he’ll look at his phone to text but then not actually see what he’s typing.
Anyone else have this?
