Scenario

When couples both avoid conflict and create silent standoffs

My partner and I both come from families that handled conflict by shutting down and we've recreated that exact pattern in our relationship — when something important comes up we both go silent and then weeks pass and nothing gets resolved.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people with matching avoidance patterns have created a relational system where nothing can be processed or healed.
