GirlTip #98: Using Silence As A Weapon

When a friend disappoints you, silence can feel easiest. Maybe I won't return that call & avoid a bigger flare-up. But silence is a weapon, too, even more powerful because of its ability to make the other person obsess over it. It's easy to assume she doesn't notice your silence, or care, but that's almost never the case. Remember the power of your silence. An empty space can be the most painful.
