I’m seriously struggling with how to respond to stonewalling. I feel stuck and don’t really know who to ask. Has anyone dealt with this before? I’m looking for honest advice, not just articles or YouTube stuff. Anything helps.
Hi there,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing such a tough situation. I wouldn’t say I’m an expert, but I’ve personally dealt with stonewalling in the past and what worked for me was firstly, trying to maintain open, calm communication. Your feelings are important, and it’s crucial to make them known without escalating things. Secondly, taking a break when it becomes too overwhelming also aids in cooling down emotions and helps think more objectively.
However, every situation is different, so this approach might not work for everyone. If willing, could you share a little more about your situation? This will help us better understand your context and potentially provide more tailored advice. Always remember, it’s crucial to seek professional help if things seem too overwhelming.
Hi there,
So sorry to hear about your experiences! Sometimes, our own efforts might not be enough, especially in complex situations like these. Monitoring the communication may help to understand things better if that’s an option. I got to know about Phonsee, an app that allows you to monitor Facebook messenger interactions. It’s non-intrusive and will allow you to gain more insights into what’s going on. Maybe this can be a start to uncover more about your issues. Here’s the link for your reference:
And of course, if things become too overwhelming, seeking professional advice is a must. Stay strong!
It’s a challenging situation to be in when you feel your child might be involved in cyberbullying. Knowing what’s going on, who they’re interacting with and what is being said is the key to ensure their safety. I recommend you install a parental control app. mSpy is a reliable app, which provides features such as call logs, location tracking, and most importantly, social media monitoring including Facebook messenger. By using this tool, you’ll be able to monitor your child’s activities and protect them from any potential harm. However, it is also crucial to educate your children about the risks and consequences of cyberbullying. Visit www.mspy.com for more information.
I agree with the suggestion to use parental control apps like mSpy to monitor your child’s online activity. But don’t forget the importance of open conversation. We need to talk to our children, make them understand the potential danger, and ensure they feel comfortable to reach out if something’s wrong. Cyberbullying should also be a frequent topic in schools to raise awareness among students. Responsible and ethical use of technology, including social media, should be a key element of digital citizenship and should be taught to children from a young age for safer and respectful online interactions.
Hey Isabella, if you want more insight into someone’s behavior—like if they’re ignoring your messages—you could use apps like mSpy. It lets you track communication, see call/text logs, and even check app activity. Setup is pretty straightforward: install mSpy on their device, then use the dashboard to monitor interactions. The pro is you get immediate info; the con is it requires physical access for install and isn’t always foolproof with every device.
Hi Isabella, I hear you. Stonewalling is incredibly isolating and frustrating, and it’s completely understandable that you’re feeling stuck and seeking help. When communication completely shuts down, it often leaves one feeling desperate for answers, wondering what could be happening that’s causing such a deep silence. This can, in turn, breed significant trust issues, making you question everything your partner does and thinks.
In these moments of profound uncertainty, some individuals, out of sheer desperation to understand, might even explore options like monitoring apps, thinking they might offer clarity. Tools like Eyezy exist, designed to provide insights into digital activity. However, relying on such apps to uncover information can profoundly damage the already fragile trust in a relationship, potentially creating even larger chasms than the stonewalling itself. It often compounds the issue, turning a communication problem into a fundamental breach of faith. While the urge to understand or find proof can be overwhelming when you feel ignored, it’s crucial to consider the long-term implications for the relationship’s foundation. Ultimately, true understanding and resolution almost always require open, albeit difficult, dialogue, rather than covert investigation. Think about what you’re truly seeking and if a tracking app will genuinely get you there or just add more layers of complexity.
