It is not uncommon for one party to sulk and silence the other when they are fighting. If right now you are being ignored by him, what do you do? Just ignore it or even think and feel completely wrong - "Is he hurt because I offended him?". If your partner is sulking, do not continue to be let alone, let alone ignored. Cranky actually includes passive aggressive behavior, which over time can have a negative impact on your relationship.
The right way to deal with a cranky partner
If your partner is left alone, it feels bad and makes you go awry. So you should lower your ego a little and slowly approach your partner with these various surefire ways, so that your relationship is both intimate again.
1. Find out why your partner is sulking
People who are cranky are confusing. It was difficult to know what he really wanted because he was on strike. But even though there is a big chance that he will still cranky with you, it never hurts to try to find out what is the cause.
There may be things in your behavior or words that make your partner angry, but he or she can't express it. Maybe he was sulking as a way to suppress his emotions so as not to hurt you. Alternatively, he feels that you can't understand what he wants, but he can't get angry and will shut you up until you realize your mistake.
By continuing to try to strike up conversations with him, you show him that you care and want to improve this tough relationship. Be patient as you try to find out the root cause of her sulking.
2. Give your partner some alone time
If after asking nicely and he's still "cool," it's best to just give in and give him some time alone. Try checking the news again a few hours later or on another day, rather than continuing to force that which can eventually lead to the second session of the fight.
3. Continue to show concern for your partner
Turning around is not a good peace strategy. In fact, when one party is cranky, the other must try to keep communication going between the two.
Communication does not always exist only in the form of speech. Show in an attitude and behavior that you still care and care about him during ups and downs. For example, secretly tucking an umbrella in his briefcase before he leaves for work once you know the weather will be bad that day. Or, send his favorite dish to the office when you know he has successfully completed his project.
Like a stone that will slowly crumble when you continue to wash it with water, your partner's stubbornness will slowly subside when flooded with your love and care.
4. Talk again when your partner's emotions have stabilized
After his emotions have started to stabilize and he can talk to him, try to talk to him again properly. Ask again what made him cranky.
Let your partner know that you would love it if he was open with you about how he was feeling. Explain that she doesn't have to be afraid of your reaction, and that you will try to accept and be with whatever problem is at hand. If it was you who was wrong, take heart to sincerely apologize to him.
Also tell your partner how best you both deal with problems so that this does not happen again in the future so that your relationship will improve.
