A happy life together in marriage presupposes close communication between spouses.
When talking to each other, they share thoughts, problems, talk about what worries them, enjoy discussing the events of the day, etc.
Sincere conversations strengthen relationships, make love stronger, bring a man and a woman closer. But all this is ideal.
In real life, it happens that spouses are unable to maintain a dialogue. Often this happens because of the husband's tendency to be silent and stingy in expressing emotions.
Silent men are not such a rare phenomenon. But there are very few women who are satisfied with a withdrawn and unsociable husband.
Usually the weaker sex considers a man's silence not as his merits, but as his shortcomings. The persistent silence of a partner offends a woman, she regards it as evidence of indifference, lack of love.
Even if a silent husband is a good host and family members, thanks to his efforts, live in prosperity and comfort, the wife cannot feel happy.
The long-term internal discomfort that such a woman experiences is expressed in frequent attempts to start a quarrel, constant grumbling. In the best case, the wife herself chatters all the time, trying to get her faithful to talk.
She constantly asks her husband questions, expecting to receive a detailed answer, but usually hears terse interjections and short “yes” or “no”.
What are the reasons for a man's silence?
So, the man is taciturn. Here is a list of possible reasons for his silence:
• he was brought up that way;
• he is a pronounced introvert;
• something is really bothering him;
• he's having an affair.
What should a wife do?
If the husband has fallen silent because of problems that worry him, he will be able to conduct a dialogue again as soon as things get better. In this case, the woman just needs to be patient. The problem is that she usually does not know that the husband has withdrawn into himself only for a while, and not forever.
If a man was brought up in a Spartan spirit from childhood, and he is firmly convinced that talkativeness and emotionality are the prerogative of the weaker sex, then it is hardly possible to change him. But he was like that before the wedding, so the woman initially knew who she was marrying.
The same can be said about introverted men. Yes, they are focused on their inner world and are not prone to talkativeness, but they are like that even before marriage. This is a special personality type.
If you love a person, you have to accept him as he is. Patience, humility, love and attention to a loved one will help a woman save her marriage. Trying at all costs to change her husband, she will show selfishness and can destroy the family.
If a man has started to talk less to his closest person – his wife – because he has another woman, this is a very serious case. What could be worse than betrayal!
Moreover, the husband’s behavior changes significantly, as a rule, if the betrayal was not just a one-time episode.
The sudden silence and coldness towards his wife indicate that he has an emotional connection with another woman. He speaks out on the side, what can be done about it?
