“When couples cannot talk about their problems in a healthy way and become entrenched in their opinions, they have the same failed conversations over and over. The relationship becomes emotionally clogged. Friction and frustration grow. Partners feel rejected, like they can’t get through to one another. Behaviors associated with conflict avoidance include passive aggressive behavior, withdrawal.” — Susan Scott
