In your relationships, one of the most frustrating problem you can face is the SILENT TREATMENT.

When somebody you care about uses the silent treatment against you, it is unpleasant and uncomfortable.

1.

We all want peace and happiness in our relationships so, when there is a problem, we want to fix it as quickly as possible.

But, how can you fix a problem when the other person won’t tell you what the problem is.

2.

I always understood this much so, when I was younger, the silent treatment was one of my favourite tactics.

I was able to manipulate and control most people but then, one of my friends stopped falling for it.

When I would give him the silent treatment, he would leave me be.

3.

He would refuse to respond to it.

It really got on my nerves. 

I was trying to make him feel bad, but it was him who had me frustrated, irritated and failing to understand what was going on.

Because of this, he was able to maintain control while l was going mad.

4.

Thankfully, the way he dealt with it helped me to see the stupidity of the silent treatment.

So, I have long since stopped using it.

The key to his success in dealing with the silent treatment was that he understood my intentions and, he refused to give in to them.
