With my ex-wife, I did the opposite... I never tuned her out. Whenever she opened her mouth, I dropped everything to listen with 110% undivided attention. Look what that got me.
*sigh* you just can't win...

Fine line between tuning out and being there 24/7.
First step is finding a woman who doesn't yap that much, you tend to have more serious convos I've noticed.
My main doesn't gossip or blab much at all, she calls me in the mornings, I'll call her afternoons.
Second step is to keep that fire burning, talking about things of substance. I know I want to to my main via text or phone unless it's something legit.
We do send funny snapchats though, but not the entire day. She understand I'm busy and I'm not on my phone most of the time.
It's always good to be self aware of the communication between both parties, never let it get mundane or repetitive.
Another good reason to avoid moving in at all costs. Obviously there are couples that do this, but: living together, getting home from work, and trying to be novel and exciting.. day after day? This is a perfect recipe for falling into a patter of eating dinner, watching network TV, and falling to sleep mutually unfullfilled.
How to avoid a mundane, repetitive lifestyle in this circumstance? Plan a wedding, have a child, or always advance mutually interesting activities, adventures, and travels. The former is more common than the latter.
