TBH I'd prefer a good old humdinger then it's over and done with, than something dragging on for days. My ex could be like that at times, I just used to ignore him and crack on

Don't forget the fact that we are all by nature very different people and some are timid and let things fester while others are more outspoken and speak there mind openly, With this in mind you will find that a lot of people may be in a similar situation to the OP.

Carry on with your life and don't let it bother you.
Just do what you would do if they weren't there. My ex used to do this, which was quite useful as I'd just get on with what I needed to get done in peace.

It got to the stage where she would sulk and I'd not have a clue why, so called it a bad day and gave up with her completely.

So much better not to have to deal with it now. Why can't people just say what is up with them?

Couldn't cope with that, I'm afraid. My mum's friend and her husband however lived together for 3 years without speaking a word to each other following a mega row. They eventually had to converse when their youngest child left home and there was no-one to relay messages. Odd relationship but they're still together now.

Have you tied checking if your partner is still alive?

Bondage at this point might seem insensitive and self-serving;)

How about serving him stuff at mealtimes that you know he doesn't like?
Then if he leaves it serve it up again for breakfast.
Yes, I know it's childish but if he's acting that way...............

Yes the best way to get your own back is to feed him food he doesn't like.

...better out than in.

Depends on your motives and your heart attitude though.

Google narcissism.

If it's a match, run.

My friend's husband was like that ...it was utterly pathetic . It killed their marriage. In a normal mood he was the nicest man , would do anything for anyone but every few months he'd go off off on one for about a week.According to his mother he'd done it since he was a teen.

She left him when he started including the kids in the silent treatment.

Personally I'd act around him like there was nothing wrong and "not notice" he was sulking - if he acts like a teenager he gets treated like one but ultimately you can stay in a miserable situation or leave.

Do something odd to break the ice like keep putting some Primark Ugg type boots in the fridge, that would be so odd they would have to break the silence to ask you why.
