I think one of the most frustrating and confusing things to experience is someone choosing not to talk with you. Especially when you don't completely understand why. There is no recourse. You can't improve upon or change the situation if you don't know what the situation is.
The unknown leaves you wondering. What did I say? What did I do? You begin to question all your actions. You begin to second guess your motivations. It's a confusing place to be.
I don't believe in the silent treatment. It resolves nothing. If there is a situation where space is needed then request the space. "I need time to heal." "I need time to sort things out." "I need to take a break."
Silence is more than deafening.
