Thanks so much for the answers, this helped clarify.
Based on all this, my partner does a lot of the ignoring, not really the stonewalling.
But I have a sense that he wants to seek my attention as well, by doing this. Does that make much sense?

Frankly? I don't really think I can fix it by myself. I have zero energy or interest for that.

Well one major reason why I'm asking these questions is to try and feel the attitudes he has. Because, I need to know what a healthy vs unhealthy relationship FEELS like. It's a long-standing problem in my life that I am working on.
