This predicts a divorce #advice #relationshipadvice #sadiakhan #podcast #happy #motivation

final factor that really predicts a

divorce based on conflict styles of

Partners is stonewalling now what

stonewalling simply means is for some

people when there's conflict and high

conflict environments they emotionally

shut down and they go silent and they

will give you the silent treatment they

start to use their silence as a weapon

they start to punish you through

withdrawal and they usually do it when

they know that it bothers you that

silent treatment ends up causing more

pain than the actual fight itself if you

have a habit of stonewalling or your

partner has a habit of stonewalling you

take segmented breaks if you know you

don't want to talk and you can't

literally handle the argument anymore

but your partner is clinging for you

then what you need to do is take some

time out for yourself but give

reassurance so I'm going to be gone for

half an hour just leave me alone for

half an hour I promise I'll be back and

we can resolve this in that time apart

try and shift your mood and resume when

you're calmer and then end with some

form of connection
