Is it stonewalling when you do so to protect yourself from name-calling, hyper-monitoring, triangulation, and physical intimidation and violence? Stone-walling is my reaction to abuse which isn’t withholding my love. It’s showing them that I have boundaries and will not be treated that way. I know how to love and if it doesn’t feel like love, I dip.
Remaining silent and walking away from mistreatment is not stonewalling - it's responding appropriately to a boundary violation. Hopefully you are communicating what your boundary is, what your response will be if it is violated, and you set conditions to be met for you to re-engage in the relationship if you want it to continue.
This is a great question as I was thinking the same thing . I suppose this is why they do what they do so the person on the receiving end thinks they have done something wrong . ❤️🩹
I like the detail where you are literally infront of a Stone wall. 😊
Stonewalling is soul destroying
