One day you are going to wake up & realize how much she means to you. When that day comes she'll be waking up next to the guy who already knows.

When arguing do you give the silent treatment?

onecutehoneybear @onecutehoneybear (938) • United States 27 Dec 07

When my hubby and I argue or fight about anything he always gives me the silent treatment. That makes me so mad, I can't stand it when he does that. I want him to yell, scream, verbalize just about anything instead of holding it...
