I agree that silence is my best option. Silence doesn't bother me. I prefer it. The truth is I would rather not communicate with her until she is ready to talk. I find talking to my wife stressful and non productive. We usually just end up in circles.
Why go in circles? ^^^ Just listen to understand and validate what she is saying. We don't have to agree but we should be able to understand how they are feeling.
