The emotional violence here is in what is not said.

Yes, but is it violence or kindness to hold your words and create distance until you’re able to communicate more clearly. Is the expectation that someone communicate before they are ready as much violence as withholding when all you have access to is rage and blame?  There is a rich and full gap between these two. It’s striking to witness. We can read into it based on a long history of gender and power dynamics. And… to read any moment well, we need context.

Nothing is spoken, but everything is felt. A shared umbrella, a shared silence where closeness doesn’t always mean connection.
