Wow. The girls babbling was probably nervousness. Passing up a woman for reading an oil forum? Really? Not in this lifetime buddy (unless i want to bite my arm off to get away of course).
However, if married, this type of male behavior is totally acceptable. In fact, it is an acquired skill that improves over time, especially when kids enter the picture. It is a form of passive listening. Words enter your ears, are processed by your brain, then, as your are contemplating your next afternoon tending your car's needs, your mouth blurts out "yes dear", "that's interesting", etc.. If the message received is somewhat scolding in nature, the brain goes into autopilot with "yes, dear...I'm sorry....I love you". All the while, you are basking in the glow of anticipating your next OCI.
In reality, the OP is exhibiting traits indicating he is worthy of marriage.
