like, if you don’t know the person well? it’s kind of like ghosting, right? kind of shitty but not like… that bad?
maybe if you frame it like…. “i’m not going to justify that with a response“ or “i’m really upset with you and don’t want to talk” or even “i need space for myself” imo it’s the complete lack of communication that makes the silent treatment shitty. if you’re clear with your intentions and what you want/why you’re doing it then it’s less of a punishment for the other person and more of you setting boundaries.

i’m still supportive of ghosting in general as a method for distancing urself from ppl who absolutely suck, but i was personally tired of having it be basically the only trick i have for pulling back… tried this wild thing called “talking” over the weekend, and it’s the craziest thing… ppl listened to me!

I mean you are at a bus stop or something and you start small talk with the stranger next to you and then you just tell them the thing that is lurking in the back of your mind, like “you know what? My friend just texted me and she’s spiraling a bit but am
I a bad friend for needing space bc I feel like I’m spiraling?”
