husband won't/can't talk to me

My husband and I are very different people. I am someone who loves to talk and listen. He is much more quiet. However as of late I've been feeling very lonely. He comes home and tells me all about his day. I am genuinely happy to hear about every interaction he had, and engage in conversation. However, when I start to talk about my day, it seems like he checks out and has no interest. I tell him about somethign that happens at work and he won't even look at me, or acknowledge the fact that I'm actually talking. It's a very lonely feeling to not have anyone to talk to about what's happening in your life. The only time I get him to engage in a conversation I've initiated is when we talk about our daughter. He does the same thing when we're having a disagreement. He won't look at me, or acknowledge that I'm speaking. I have always been very good at talking about my feelings in an open, honest, and respectful way. I don't feel I get that in return. How can I get my husband to listen to me, or engage in a conversation? I would like to believe that a marriage is what you make of it. I've been trying so hard and don't feel like I'm getting much in return. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
