Sulking husband

My husband sulks!

Sometimes for no apparent reason he stops talking to me for up to 10 days at a time.

How should I react?

I've tried to continue talking to him but am met with a stony silence or a grunt.

In the past I've usually been the one to bring it to an end by talking him around but now I feel this might have been a mistake as I've shown him that I tolerate this behaviour.

In fact I find it dissturbing and unacceptable.

But I don't know how to deal with it.

This time round I'm behaving the same - ignoring him too - but it doesn't make any difference. Also I don't feel good about behaving this way - it seems so immature.

I've tried talking to him about it when things calm down and he's agreed not to do it anymore - and yet it happens again and again. It's almost like a weapon he's using against me when he's angry about something.

Any ideas how to handle this?
