We never know when we feel sad, or angry..specially after a busy hectic day, it might be from any kind of work pressure, from handling too many things at home or driving home through a busy traffic, some discussion at work..anything...

You actually dont atall feel like talking to anyone, then dont talk..really, dont talk..Even if your spouse tries to initiate a discussion. If you have been married for quite some years, then he/she will understand you are irate and will be silent..If you are newly wed, then its a better and kind thought to let your spouse know you didnt have a good day and would like some silent time...that is better than you being angry with your family members, they being hurt and the silent war continues for days...

However, even if you dont want to talk, atleast give the other person a clue that you are irate, or "BE WARE OF ME" kind of a notice...If you are tight lipped, they might keep asking you the reason for your silence and you will end up being more irate...
