[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, overall, our relationship is fine( I think, lol) but she reacts in a different way if I tell her something I don't like straight. She don't take it well, and goes in the silent mode. Today, she told me that she is not ready to chat and went for a walk and we chatted after 2 hrs. She did discuss that she didn't want to say anything mean when she is upset and rather shuts down for a while. [/quote] This seems reasonable.[/quote] I think OP needs to back off. This is fine, and actually, healthy. OP, have you had any individual therapy? Do you have past trauma with your parents and emotional withdrawal? It may be impacting your adult relationships. What you partner is doing is a healthy coping mechanism. You may want to talk with someone. Try reading about anxious attachment, too. Not saying you have this. Just mentioning it. Definitely would be helpful to talk with someone.[/quote]
