There is nothing as painful as when your angry partner ices you out when you make them upset. Your first response would be 'I don't care they can go suck on a crouton for all I care' but ten minutes later the tune changes to 'why aren't they saying anything yet?'
And when they stubbornly keep their mouths shut for an entire day it feels like your heart is being shredded into pieces inside a wood chipper. You finally relent and say 'you know what, I am just going to talk about it' hoping they would have cooled down by then.
This is exactly the emotional rollercoaster Qie Ranzhe went through with the only difference being that it happened in just under two hours. He went from 'I should be the one to be coaxed' to 'damnit, we have to talk about it' in less than 120 minutes.
