    My niece and sister had to move in with me and my wife

    Now it's constant gossip, chatter and pointless conversations

    They stand outside the house gossiping and talking absolute rubbish with the 2 female neighbors too (being friendly they call it)

    I'm cracking up, I'm literally surrounded now by women yapping all day long.

    I'm too introverted for all this and need my own space



    So men...... How do you escape this madness?

    Women just love yapping. Yapping. And yapping about every single absolute piece of rubbish

    Did you see what blogger X said
    Did you see what blogger X is wearing or what her son had on
    Did you hear about X down the road
    Where did so and so get that car

    Freezing aint it.... Ya gurl...
    You cold?..
    . Ya gurl, cold isn't it
    Ya gurl

    Now with lockdown I'm trapped this madness

    Send help (or at least tips for your fellow man to escape this madness and mind his mental health!)

    Take up cycling. Go the whole hog with a decent bike and a kinky amount of lycra. With the 5km restriction, you can still do 30km loops around your house and disappear for a good 2/3 hours.

    It always fascinated me as to how women can talk about nothing for so long, my women is a lecturer in a university, you'd think after interacting with students and staff all day she would have enough said but no, she has to take me through her day from the time she gets to work until the time she comes home, I don't even have to respond, just sit here pretending to listen. Love to bits tho so I wouldn't change it for the world and the evening she's not home I feel like I'm living in a cave with the dogs, never change sugar tits

    Buy a couple of kegs and a dart board for shed / garage/ quiet room .
    Go in and drink , practice darts . Keep practising till you do a 501 finish.
    That will be a while so at least you can drink :)

    Highly recommend a good quality telescope. Who isn’t into seeing the planets and galaxies!
    Couple of cans, the stars, the couple of cans.
    Thats what I do anyway

    God be with the days when a wife was seen and not heard, unless it was calling its husband to let him know that his dinner was ready. Sure now they do be talking and everything.

    You'd think that would work, wouldn't ya ?

    I bought myself a fairly decent telescope thinking she'd have no interest , now I regularly have this drunk sitting beside me with a glass of wine telling me how her day went , what her sister said , wanting to know what I'm looking at and can she have a go now.

    Convert a room into the 'studio'.

    You'll need:
    A computer
    A DJ Controller
    Some DJ software and some music making software
    A gang load of tracks and a gang load of samples. The more bass the better.
    Some decent monitor speakers and some decent headphones.

    With this you can switch between making your own tunes and listening to/mixing other peoples tunes. Literally endless possibilities and it'll drown out the gossip drawl to boot. Pepper with cans as you see fit.

    The only thing about that is you can’t count on the weather.
    Going out for a gaze while it’s cloudy as hell might land you in more trouble. It’s better to be less obvious !

    This isn’t all women.
    Three women in this house, wife and two daughters 18 & 12.

    Never watch any soaps, no gossiping, no rubbish about reality tv. Herself works hard, brings home a great wage. No time for idle messing about. 18yo at school
    And works too but work is off with covid. Youngest spends all free time down in our stable with her pony.

    I couldn’t be putting up with all that false life OP is describing.

    OP hlget yourself out walking or cycling in the fresh air.
