@flowzki My problem with long distance is that just maybe..one person will go behind and he getting sex from else where
I’ll now look like the stupid one for being loyal
A partner who punishes you with silent treatment is a very toxic person. Silent treatment is not a cooling off period. It is not needing space to think. It is control. It is punishment. It is emotional manipulation dressed in silence.
For the recipient, silent treatment is almost the same as physical pain. Brain studies have shown that social rejection activates the same neural pathways as physical pain. When someone you love shuts you out without explanation, your brain registers it as a blow. You feel it in your chest. You struggle to sleep. You replay every conversation trying to figure out what you did wrong.
Over time, you begin to doubt your own sanity and your own reality. You question your memory. You question your worth. You start apologising for things you did not do, just to end the silence. That is not love. That is a hostage situation.
A person who uses silent treatment as a weapon is not resolving conflict. They are avoiding it while making you suffer. It is a very wicked, evil thing to do to someone you claim to love.
If you are in a relationship where silence is used to punish you, know this you are not crazy. You are being manipulated. And you deserve someone who will speak to you even when they are angry, because love does not go mute when conflict arrives.
