What to say do on return?

I’m not going into lots of detail. I would just like some constructive advice. I’ve name changed.

My dh is a sulker and gives the silent treatment . We had a minor disagreement on Monday. He refused to talk to me the next day, told me to go away so didn’t want to discuss it. So I have, I’m at my sons. I have to go back tomorrow as dogs are with neighbour. How is best to approach our situation? If he still won’t talk (very unemotional parents, never really talked about his feelings) is it over? What happens next time?

Honestly why are you tip toeing around this shit? Just tell him. Tell him he either grows the fuck up or it’s over. And make it clear it’s not happening again. Make it so clear he’s left in no doubt.

Say nothing until he does. File for divorce in the mean time.

DH sulked when we first got together early 20s I think I said it was totally unfair to expect me to know what was wrong, apologise if needed or resolve anything when he wouldn't talk.

He changed, a much older man - far less likely to happen I should think!

My fiance did this twice, I made it very clear there wouldn't be a third time, he knew I meant it (because I did) and he hasn't done it now for 3 years, so whether it's sunk in and stays rhat way it remains to be seen, but if I were you, that's the message I'd be sending out loud and clear
