I think it's a man thing for sure! My dh is only 47 but he is already getting hard of hearing. He worked offshore for several years and his hearing is definitely going. He can't hear some pitches well at all-- including our daughter! I can't even get him to mention it to the doctor-- he denies there is a problem and tells me I can't hear! GRRRRR back at ya!Originally Posted by WaterRat
My DH has tinnitus (from firing a gun without wearing hearing protection) and age-related deafness. He has hearing aids which he only wears when he's going somewhere, insisting that he hears me fine. He doesn't and it's so annoying. I can't call him for dinner, I have to go find him and tell him. He often doesn't hear the phone or the door bell. Grrrr. I think our life is "important" enough for him to wear the hearing aids. Rant over. Sorry.
