Also, remember that some men need to recharge. We know Sigmas, autists and schizoid types may need to, but more common and less obvious are everyday introverts, men who use their brain a lot at work, extreme empaths, or men who are not the top dog in their current jobs. Many such men come home tired, not necessarily physically, but mentally, emotionally and socially. He's not ignoring you: he's just enjoying a little bit of headspace and will be back in the real world once he's recharged a bit. Nagging will not make him recharge any faster, it will have the complete opposite effect.

PS: If you want him to recharge faster or to just be close to him, try this:

1: Be aware of what he needs to relax and have it ready when he is home.

2: Be mostly quiet, let him have his headspace.

3: Fetch his favourite drink.

4: Be with him in the room, or in the very next room, doing your own thing. Eventually he will approach you or invite you, verbally or nonverbally, once he's ready.

5: Accept that some days he will not recharge until he's been to bed. Keep peaceful, keep him "stocked" for food and entertainment, let him get on with it and hope that he will be better in the morning.

Important. If your man is drained from the moment he gets in until he goes to bed every day, does not open himself up to you even if you let him be and make sure he's cared for, and only really seems himself after a whole 24 hours off work, he might be on a path to depression, if not already depressed. After a week or two observing, if the pattern is there, talk to him about work and find out what is hurting him. He might not know it yet, but he may need to get out of there ASAP. OTOH, if he's only really himself when he gets in from work and after a while at home the behaviour begins, then the source of malaise is his home or family life. This may not be you, it may be concern about a relative, the area you live in... anything. Again, observe for a week or two, then ask him to open up to you about it. Men often live with mild chronic depression and anxiety in complete quiet. They can spend years in this pattern and hardly know there's anything wrong, only to have a meltdown, a midlife crisis or a sudden suicide attempt when the despair hits them harder than usual. So look after him and make sure his life is worth living, not just when it comes to you, but when it comes to work, family, everything.
