Flipping the table or reasoning is not essentially an emotional issue but a choice of perceived power. When you choose to reason, you often default to assuming the other party can be persuaded, the relationship is worth continuing, and there is still room for negotiation in the future. But in reality, the other party may not care about logic, only their position, and the relationship itself may be a structure of ongoing depletion. So-called explanations are merely delaying conflict rather than resolving it. Therefore, many times, a person is not unaware they should leave, but constantly uses explanations to buy a dignified exit. And "waiting for an explanation" is not rational either; it's just a psychological buffer—waiting for one more reply is holding onto one more hope; explaining once more is confirming that you haven't lost yet; understanding once more is an attempt to maintain a sense of control. But the problem is that explanations often do not bring answers, only prolong the drain.
