Thanks lizardlady
Papa bear tends to shut down and not listen (but pretends to listen) in social situations. He doesn't find them interesting. I don't blame him, the conversations often have not been interesting. He has specialist interests. He used to be described as ''introverted'' in school reports, not overly ''shy''... just not a talker. More of a thinker, a scientist.
In every day ''superficial'' or work related conversations he is completely ''normal''....
He seems to desire less social interaction than anyone else I have known. I guess that isn't a problem. I'm finding ways of working around this

I'm not very social either, I have found some humans, especially all of the FOO, to be ......
We do laugh and have fun together. Maybe I am indeed ''too needy''
