Also I’ve been following Sandi’s rules and it seems like it falls into my wife’s personality. She loves to give the silent treatment especially when doesn’t want to admit mistake. Her father and her didn’t talk for a year when she was rebelling in high school. I feel like she wants zero communication to justify pushing away. She will respond to this as in “look how bad our relationship has been lately”. Seriously my wife is the most passive aggressive person and potentially a narcissist.
I don’t know why but I feel like I should be friendly and more open. It’s so hard to figure her out.
