I think we both used silence to protect ourselves but it’s reached a point where it hurts more than it helps.
While silence is often necessary to avoid immediate pain, it reaches a breaking point. Once that quiet mounts to excruciating pain, it ceases to be a protective shield and becomes the wound itself.
Prolonged mutual silence is a double void by choice waiting to be filled. When both parties choose the void, the "missing" phone number becomes a convenient excuse to avoid the vulnerability required to end the agony.
His claim of not having her number is less about a lack of data and more about a lack of courage to fill that waiting space.
