Mine works the other way.
We usually do the silent treatment until the awkwardness hits a breaking point and one of us gives up; which by that time the other party has also cooled down and is more receptive for an apology, and in most cases, even reciprocative of an apology.
For some reason I find that it works well. It sure as hell suits me more than the over dramatic, emotionally charged, lovers quarrel. The times I found myself in those kind of relationships in the past, I find the experience both tiring and a little bit embarrassing when caught in a blow up(esp. if its in public).
It's funny, Ramon considers "silent treatment" as a kiddish quality but in my experiences, it's incendiary people who deal with their problems by blowing up is what I feel more "kiddish" IMO
