Going numb
If all of the emotions that come with an argument, or telling your partner that he hurt you, are too much for you, you may just go numb. You won’t become aggressive, passive-aggressive, or even noticeably sad. You will just become quiet, removed, and distant. You can’t stand to process the negative emotions happening, so you stop processing everything entirely.
