I’m getting it now, I don’t know why, she won’t tell me, but she does know it annoys the **** out of me, what pisses me off is that, ok, give me the silent treatment, but at least let me know what for…?
You’re supposed to know what for! Saying you don’t just makes it worse because you’ve clearly forgotten something important, which is why you’re getting the silent treatment. 😉
My wife stopped talking to me for a few hours once. She then said “Right, now I’m talking to you…..”. She was even angrier when I said I hadn’t noticed she’d been giving me the silent treatment. 😀
ignore the silent treatment and talk to her even more.
and say “yes dear” to everything she says, when she starts talking(ranting} to you again, winds them up big time 😆
WOMEN, can’t live with them, can’t bury them under the patio!
Its when she tells you and she only knows about something small and not the big thing you did you can breathe a sigh of relief.
Its the “what’s the matter” answered by ” nothing” that gets me as I then have to think which “nothing” she actually knows about and is mad about. Hence I never fess up incase I simply dig a bigger hole.
Just suck it up, or go the pub and get some space.
Previous gf soon learned that giving me the silent treatment or declaring “I’m not speaking to you!” was not very effective. Instead she would tell me about her friends, who said what to who, so and so’s new hairdo etc…… I still have nightmares now…. 🙁
Speaking from experience, when your OH declares that they are not speaking to you do NOT ask if you can have some sort of guarantee in writing. It will not be well received.
Although it will earn you a couple of days worth of lovely peace and quiet….
