i was given silent treatment after this incident.

me over text: i have a work call so cannot pick you up from the airport

work call ends early so I walk the dogs

she ubers home without issue

three days later after refusing to talk to me.

her: I guess the dogs were more important than me!

Silent treatment is poor communication and needs to be discussed and removed from the relationship in counseling, but this is stupid things husbands do.  

Picking her up was something she wanted and makes her feel loved and appreciated.  Assuming work call could not be moved then explain and okay, but she will still feel less important to you than taking your work call.  Once your schedule changed you could have prioritized her and in her mind make her feel like you want to care and support her by letting her know there was a change and you will pick her up.

Instead you took actions that made her think you don't prioritize or think about her.  She wants to believe you are her man and that you will protect and support her, and here you failed.

However she found out about the dog walking is where he fucked up. Turn your Ring off before you walk out the door. Turn it back on when you return. 

Lol isn’t that 1000000x more suspicious?

This is what car services were invented for. Neither of us expect rides to/from the airport from each other. We both recognize that it’s a horrible waste of each other’s time.

Thanks Dr. Phil.

But you're not wrong.

I never really understood the silent treatment.  It's like, hey I'm not going to nag you, or spend hours telling you about meaningless shit that you don't care about, or interrupt you while you are watching tv to ask stupid questions, and, I'm going to keep not doing it until you apologize for the thing that you don't have any idea you did that I perceived as some kind of slight.
