The silent treatment...

[iluvtofly 0]

So I'm currently getting the silent treatment from a supposedly grown man. What do you think of the silent treatment?

Sometimes, it's better not to say anything than to say something that you're going to regret later!

It's not over anything serious. He's just being a child and can't handle being fed some of his own medicine.

Mostly I think it is childish. After thinking about it for a second though I think it may be ok if he is mad and just wants to control that anger and not get in another argument with you. That's assuming you got in an argument. Women do it all the time though, a lot also won't admit when they are mad about something or be honest about what they are mad about. You just get "I'm fine" What do you call that? Childish? Best way to get a point across? I didn't vote because I really haven't formed a solid opinion. Also, I talk about what I am mad about with whom I'm mad at and work it out, but that's just me.

Both of you sound childish

How's yours doing?

There are several other people that know what's going on...and he's probably giving them the silent treatment as well. I promise that it's nothing serious...he's just being silly.

I think you two should crawl into bed and have sex.

Ohhh I *hate* the silent treatment. My dad does it & it drives my mum nuts. I think if you're being quiet because you're thinking things through, that's one thing and perfectly acceptable.. If your silence is a form of "punishment", it's passive-aggressive and wrong. "Teaching someone a lesson" means you think you're better than them, and this type of behaviour does NOT (in my opinion) give rise to a mutually agreeable solution to the problem in question.

That being said, little nasty attacks and/or nagging is just as counter-productive. So is rounding up your friends and "ganging up" against your partner.

I think if you love someone you don't deliberately try to hurt them. Communication is key.

Thanks, Nat. You just reminded me why it's really not so bad being single.

Is this what the text I got from Bolas was about???

Silence is a weapon in my family and I HATE it. Being cut off to prove a point fucking sucks.

Well it DOES if the person you're not speaking to is listening to what you're not saying.

I heard a rumor that Billy actually started the whole thing.

The real question is "What Tebow Do?"

I bet Tebow would be man enough to stand up and say what is on his mind. Sorry that this guy is lesser of a man.
