A man's silence isn't coldness. It's a choice to avoid words he can't take back, to keep stress from home, to hold onto the last bit of control he has left.

A man's silence isn't coldness. It's a choice to avoid words he can't take back, to keep stress from home, to hold onto the last bit of control he has left.
When a man gets quiet, people think he's just being distant. Sometimes he's not distant. Sometimes he's just trying not to damn fall apart. He's trying not to say something that he just can't take back. Trying not to bring the stress into the house. So before you call him cold or black-hearted, understand something. Some men go silent because silence is the only control that they got left.
