The silent treatment can make you feel really bad and make you desperate to end the tension. It’s scary and takes up a lot of energy wondering how long it’s going to last, if it’s still on, and if there’s something you should be doing differently to fix it. It feels horribly rejecting when someone you love won’t speak to you, answer you, or look at you—like a punishment with no end to the sentence. So what can you do when you’re being shut out? On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, we’re talking about how to handle the silent treatment with dignity. I’ll share 3 experiments to try if what you’re doing doesn’t feel so dignified and you want to shorten or stop the silent treatment. Plus, my guest Deanna’s marriage was hurting from betrayal on both sides when she stumbled on The Surrendered Wife book and this podcast. She started applying the 6 Intimacy Skills™ right away and was amazed at what happened after only a few days. Today she feels loving and loved. She’s going to tell us how she did it so you can do it too.
