x a million.  any woman who says otherwise is full of BS (just consider the responses if the genders were reversed.....)[/quote]

I guess I don't agree that letting your partner know you need time and space to cool off = silent treatment. If a woman (or a man) does it to punish their spouse or freeze them out, that's one thing. But if either spouse needs a few hours or a day to gather their thoughts before sitting down to have a calm conversation, I fail to see how that's abuse. Can you explain? [/quote]

The two are very different and the non-silent party knows the difference.  For example, my mother refuses to talk to me for days.  She has a scowl on her face the entire time to let you know that she is NOT happy.   It creates all kinds of negative/stressful energy.  She drops it as soon as she gets her way.  [/quote]

If my DH keeps an argument up and doesn't let me cool off it will result in days of bad feelings. I feel attacked. If he gives me some space we can come back together and resolve it and clear the air. [/quote]
