My husband is emotionally reserved by nature, it's just the way he was raised, and perhaps with some influence from his career in the military.

I just want to know any tips or techniques or examples from those who are emotionally reserved themselves?

I myself am a very talkative, expressive person, so this is a hard one for me to understand naturally.

    Get em drunk and force conversation until you end up staying up al night talking about nonsense. Then you will have a basis for more conversation
