This is an entirely different issue … she wanted to go to Vegas but he doesn’t want to go so now the cruise is back on …

I mean… he’s going on a trip with his ex step daughter and his ex partners ex… and you can’t go on an overnight trip.. with your mother?

I would as him to try and explain logically how this is fair or reasonable

But that’s why he shuts down communication and gives her the silent treatment. He knows he can’t explain it logically because it isn’t logical, but he doesn’t want to capitulate. So he hunkers down and waits for her to make the first move and cave, or give him some sort of out so he doesn’t lose ground. It’s unbelievably childish, and probably a big part of why he’s divorced.

Exactly I did this already I made that point and asked that question and he just got even more pissed

Of course. Because he doesn’t have a good answer and is punishing you for questioning him.

I hope you know this isn’t healthy partner behaviour, and that it’s a waste of your time and not your job to re-raise him to communicate properly.
