What is resentment in a marriage?

This entry describes resentment as anger that has been stored and keeps a tally, often after a grievance was not named or was named and left unsettled. It notes that the feeling can run a household long after the original incident, and that it is not the same as a single complaint.

What this entry does not do

It does not treat resentment as proof the marriage should end, and it does not replace the entry on apology.
