Navigating a partner’s feelings when they won’t communicate is much like walking through a minefield, because a misstep can just end the entire thing. But people shouldn’t suffer in silence, so figuring out how to work on one’s relationship sometimes takes some planning.

A woman went online to ask for advice on how to handle her husband’s behavior. After their second child, she noted that suddenly he didn’t want to talk much or even interact and she reflected that he maybe simply wanted an older version of her back. Netizens shared some similar stories and gave what advice they could.
