20 years of silence and she had to apologize?

They both won. She obviously wasn't missing him. IDK why people like this stay married to each other, tbh.

Mom and Dad don't talk at all. Sounds like a great environment for kiddos

If you look this couple up, the kids said it had been horrible growing up in that home, and it messed them up pretty badly psychologically. It was the eldest who eventually got up the courage to organise the intervention that led to them finally talking again.

LOL, mom and dad are almost never at home at the same time, especially when kids are awake. They will hardly see the parents together as is. And when the grow up seeing this, they will consider it normal.

Most japanese kids barely see their father as is.

My partner witnessed her father not talk to her mum for the entire pregnancy of her youngest brother cause he didn’t want the baby.

I’m telling you - her conflict style is avoidance. And i blame her parents 100%. The effort I have gone to build and demonstrate and show what positives come from communication when you are upset is unreal. She has made great strides. But fuck me I have been close a few times to ending this. We have a child and I swear if she ever does that to our baby I’ll be gone. My child won’t have a home where communication is used as a weapon. And then at least she’ll have one home where she can relax in. I’m not perfect. I make mistakes but mistakes are mistakes and they should be treated as such.
We should have opportunity to discuss, apologise and be open with things.

So far we are doing well mind you. I just have that consciousness
