Nah, it’s only a game, literally doesn’t matter.

I get a bit annoyed at myself if I make mistakes, not if I lose.

#25

too much effort. Have to be genuinely upset otherwise I can only pretend for like 10 minutes max before I find it too exhausting.

That said, depression aside I don’t tend to stay mad or upset about any one thing for a long period of time anyway.

I am the same with that kind of thing I like a good battle win or loose.
*Though one of my friends is the worst winner ever, he will phone you up the next day to remind you that he won then hang up! U must not loose to him.

That is some next level poor winning.

i don’t sulk - but i do a thing which probably looks and feels very very similar where i take a while to process my anger - and have to go kindof quiet and not talk to the person who s making me angry - so to the layperson probably loks liek a sulk

it is not though, sulking is for babies

my wife also does this, will later admit that she was doing it, (kind of) apologise BUT THEN DO IT AGAIN WHENEVER SHE FEELS LIKE IT. You doing it and being blase about the fact your doing it for no good reason has irrrrrrkkkked me.

#33

oh yeah and you’re so innocent i bet

#34

i’m with smee on this - what is the point of this? it’s just being stubborn for no reason - obvs none of us are perfect in relationships, but deliberately persisting in behaviour that’s purposely infuriating and knowingly ridiculous just seems liek a dick move to me

BUT WHATVER WORKS FOT YOU I GUESS

^this.

Really achieves nothing. Being in a bad mood is fine, and everyone can have that, but sulking for the purpose of sulking is like deliberately fostering a bad atmosphere.

Isn’t any form of arguing seen as being stubborn for no reason?

I’d much rather be in a relationship where you have the odd sulk every so often than one where you have full blown blazing rows.

Also anyone who thinks a relationship isn’t a little bit like a game is a bit silly. It’s a playful game, not a hurtful one. It’s nice to be the little wounded kitten and be sweet talked out of a sulk.

The non-issue had already been solved hours ago. I’m just having a little sulk still.

#44

Like I say - whatever works for you
Enjoy your sulk at reading

No it’s worse because the sulks NEVER happen in person. I just don’t text back as quickly as I usually do or ask what he’s had for lunch etc.

It’s a fair cop

Doesn’t have to be either though.

8 years next month and we still have never had one shouting match, and only one or two angry disagreements. Just have it out, talk like adults about how you feel and remember that you love each other, while being considerate of each others feelings and taking it as valid.
