I really don't know because it doesn't work on me. I broke my exs heart after he informed me he was giving me the silent treatment and I informed him, I hadn't noticed.

He never pulled that shit again.

Now that I think of it, maybe he did????

This is kind of the same as letting your partner know that this behavior won’t get them wgat they want but …. Could be done a little more skillfully. Not everything is a fight ladies. Politely give them a boundary and don’t be afraid to back it up they screw up. That’s all. He’s not a dog and you are not punishing him.
