As long as you do not have any kind of meter to read the amount of emotional damage you're causing to your partner while you're on your silent treatment there is nothing as a mature soul in this case.

barrybanbi:


you are reading this as a one way strip issue, if you have an idea of what it takes to maintain your silence in the midst nagging partners and mr / Mrs always right people you will understand that silence sometimes is golden

donpeey22:
The problem with "silent treatment" is that if not controlled, it could actually cause the quarrel to linger, especially when the two people have big egos. In that case it becomes difficult for one of them to yield and approach the other to talk things over.

Silence treatment is bad n a sign of immaturity.

bosun11:




sorry about that

bosun11:
Kachisbarbie : few hours and it occurred while we both went out

Kachisbarbie:


why hours?
What where you doing within those hours?
What was she doing too?
What was going through your mind?

Kachisbarbie:


Yes, maybe when the "silent treater" decides to talk, the other party must have exhausted his/her patience. He/she may start giving another attitude, thereby lingering the quarrel.

bosun11:



hours because she had to ask what was up and everything was settled
listening to music
well thinking of what happened and how to settle the misunderstanding

emeraldoe:
Sometimes silence is better. I give d silent treatment to make my hubby calm. He comes back to sort tins out if I jst bone and maintain my lane. But if I rant, hmm, d house will be on fire and he won't knw I'm angry. He dreads my silence

zexzy:
The silent treatment is so annoying, issues should be resolved as soon as the two ppl involved calm down. When you keep giving me the silent treatment the amount of respect i ve for you will keep going down.

Kachisbarbie:


So, I take it that if she didn't talk to you, you wouldn't have taken the step?

deb6:
Silence treatment is bad n a sign of immaturity.
Why not say ur mind n 4get about the issue instead of keeping silent n habouring evil thoughts.

Kachisbarbie:


lolz.
When I go silent for long, I tend to harbour a lot of evil thought(s)/revenge.
I avoid it as much as possible.
You know it starts from 1min to 5mins, 1hour, a day....b4 you know it, it becomes a habit.

Not good @alll

100Cents:


Silent treatment is a sign of immaturity, pride, vain glory, self centeredness, stubbornness, discontent, disloyalty.

Its also a shame that people who engage in this attitude boast about it. One lady was boasting about giving her bf/Ex the silent treatment for one year.

" He still calls me and wants me, I promise him I am coming but I won't go, just posting him ".

She is taking pride in making someone a fool and being untrustworthy herself.
