Therapy or leave. This is a man’s point of view. I did therapy. I’m better now. Hope it works for you too. Good luck. Or end it.
Sounds like my ex! It’s a form of emotional abuse. I didn’t realize until I got out. Sooooo happy now. So glad I didn’t have children with that man. 😳
Or he simply dies not know how or couldn't talk. Not everything is emotional abuse. He does need to work on it
Choose yourself. Leave, get therapy and learn how to love yourself and out your wellbeing first.
I feel you sister… its the same with my husband. I cant leave him because I have a 3yr old daughter. I couldn’t leave him be ause of societal pressure and no support from my parents. He is emotionally abusive- the tricky part is when he is infront of my family he behaves like a ideal husband- at home wont even put a tea cup in the sink. Everyone thinks he is a gentleman.
Since i cant leave him- I have created a wall within myself. I just dont care what he says and dont. For a person like him, their power lies in the fact that when he gives you the silent treatment it is hurting you…you are crying not eating upset… they get a sadistic pleasure out of it. But the moment you dnt care and carry on with your regular life they suddenly start loosing out on you… I just do things normally even if he is giving me silent treatment. It didnt happen overnight took me 7 years to realize and reflect on this. Stop giving them the power to affect you and you will see him perish infront of you. Easier said than done. These are insecure and loveless souls they understand only trauma and get uncomfortable when u stop being traumatised… its alien for them.
The OP needs to get a divorce too and therapy.
Being stonewalled is not ok and the silent treatment is emotional abuse that’s normalized by people who don’t know how to process their own feelings but crave power and control. If he won’t go to therapy with you, I would consider getting out… sorry to hear. I’ve been through it too
That sucks - sorry you didn’t see this before you get married. Couples therapy would be a good starting point, but he has to want to do it. Whatever the next step is, make sure your finances are setup to allow you to get out.
Silent treatment is a narcissistic behaviour
Did this develop over the last years? What was different when you got married?
@Accolite : I am sorry you are going thru this. If he is not accepting help , then there is nothing much you can do. You can't keep trying all your life.

I heard someone saying narcissist… narcissistic behaviour is much worse than that… they will play with ur mind in ways u can’t even imagine … they can push a normal person to depression.. yet they won’t blame themselves for that…
Therapy and leave.
That's exactly my wife doing to me, for sake of kid , I am tolerating beyond limits
May be I am sorry for the judgement. I have nothing but sympathy for people going through this kind of abuse.
Guys , come out and please decode this behaviour.
I would say that is affecting you and your partner both I think you should confront him to resolve the issue everytime such hing happens
I have definitely been in your shoes OP. It sucks but I would try therapy and if that doesn't work it may be time to go. That is if you can even get him to go to therapy. My ex wouldn't do it so we parted ways.
