Dolphin,
She is not being silent at all! She is slamming doors and rolling here eyes. She has something on her mind and she wants you to read it. That is her problem and it is manipulation. Trust me on this...I do it. I am working on it, but the fact is that I still do it.
For me it is a difficulty expressing what I want, but for Ward it is a pain in the a**!
For me if Ward says..."Spit it out"...it puts it back on me. If I don't, then who is the one to blame??
We (or Ward) cannot read minds...
