Side A
TL;DR · I needed an hour to cool down; they call it stonewalling.
I asked for space after a circular fight. Jordan did not speak to me for two days except logistics. That is punishment, not cooling off.

TL;DR · They would not stop rehashing the same point while I was driving.
I shut down because every time I answered, it restarted the loop while I was driving. I needed quiet to be safe and calm.

Both of you chose the worst timing and the worst repair strategy.
Was there past stonewalling? Pattern vs one bad weekend matters.
Cool-off hours are healthy; silent days are not. Agree on a return time to talk.
Do not litigate relationship issues while operating a vehicle. Park it literally.
Name the maximum silence window — 24 hours, then check-in required.
Punishment silence erodes trust faster than the original fight.
Two days is long but the trigger was intense. Tone down rehashing first.
Safety while driving trumps winning the argument. Riley restarting loops is unsafe.
Forty-eight hours of logistics-only is stonewalling. Jordan should have sent a repair text.
