How do you deal with a moody boyfriend?

My boyfriend has gone into a mood with me over a disagreement we've had regarding a situation we were recently in. He knew my feelings about this particular topic from the start of our relationship, but because he's now realised that he's not getting his own way, he's being moody and barely talking to me. He insists that he's not in a mood though! Advice/opinions please?

Don't let his silence control you. Try to reason with him and if you can't then let him be unhappy. Him denying the mood is borderline gaslighting- in my opinion.

@Hakphin: I see what you mean. When I try to discuss it with him, he's so dismissive that it upsets me. I'll stop trying to talk about it with him and let him get on with his mood. Thanks!
