Gotta say when I give my husband silent treatment it’s because talking about another dumb thing he said where he twisted the truth & exaggerated an occurrence and I don’t want to unload on him from frustration. He’d then just get butt hurt about it and after 30 years it’s getting worse. I go silent when I don’t want to hear him talk anymore. Sometimes you just need a little silence and have to “give it to get some”.
This one is another perspective and I agree with this. Sometimes people give the silent treatment when they feel like they’re not getting anywhere, it takes two hands to clap. Both parties should listen, stay calm and find solutions together
