Just out of interest what is it going to take for you to stop ignoring him?
Will it be a sorry or I won't do that again or I won't abuse you all anymore... Only if you ignore him and he doesn't say sorry and he doesn't move on then what, how are you going to know if he's repentant to you if you're not talking? If he's not repentant and carries on then I guess it will be the silent treatment forever more.
