If a woman says she's angry...and she doesn't want to talk about it...what do you do??...and how do you handle it???

And what would you like her to do??

I don't push anyone that is angry. Just tell her that when she's ready to talk, I'm ready to listen.

Then back away very, very slowly.....

Would kinda depend on the situation.


As long as she's not throwing things at me I would give her some space to work through it.

What would I like her to do? Talk to me when she's ready so it can be worked out.

Leave her the hell alone......

No doubt, the "discussion" is going to take place.....but best left up to her timing.

I would prefer to deal with it right there and then and get it resolved sooner than later.... but learned the hard way on that wishfull mistake.

It'd depend on how angry she really is. If it's something drastic.. lock myself in the computer room, and let her have time to sort things out. If it's something much more tame in that respect, I'll test the waters of discussion with 'I feel' statements and see where that goes. It can easily backfire and make things worse.

As the old addage goes:

A woman gets the final word in an argument, any more after that point is the start of a new argument.

I'm not saying that's the case, or I live by it... but it's something to consider in the de-escalation process.

What if you think she's being "unreasonable" in her anger?

The angry part I have no problems comprehending.

But what does this mean, this "doesn't want to talk about it?"

wink dunno

I'm sure you of all people will understand this explanation...

I never go into an argument "ill-prepared"...i need time to weigh my options...run it through my head...anticipate what he will say and form all my answers so that there are no "loop holes"...

So when i am very very angry...I don't talk...

If you have anger there is a root for it.

sorry, wik, i was being sarcastic about myself....

It's not likely I'd EVER "not want to talk about it." You know?
