If like to talk n compromise.
She can get emotional all she wants no matter what I just want to make her smile and laugh and I'll always be there to do that
Nagwawalk-out si chi :(( I usually dont like ending the day knowing di kami ok. So sad...
Shout and argue, cry and say horrible things, but we always make up
Talking it out, eventually.
We need to work on this... Kuz it's not where I want it to be... But I love to get rode after n kiss her we do make up.... Release all that tense passion we got... N then we can rest clear headed and make up verbally....
I have been trying to confront more when there is a conflict. I know things are much better when they are resolved more quickly. Typically we are both pretty good about admitting when we were in the wrong and will be the first to apologize.
Guess this is one of those times....this sucks.
Ugh, my method needs help. I'm quick to jump on the bad and then blow it up. I'd like to be better at recognizing my feelings and not letting my mouth get the best of my so quickly sometimes.
I usually get defensive and I get frustrated when I can't get my point made. I need him to look at the situation from my point of view. I get angry and emotional. I need to work on letting things go.
After many hours of counseling and the enriched life marriage series, I have learned,and am still, not to shut down and take ownership of my feelings and my reality. We talk it out, most of the time :)
Honesty, communication and respect.
I hold things in & shut down. It's not the best thing I know.. It's something I need to and am working on. I've never had someone that I can openly talk to without the fear of retaliation & I've got that now. Unfortunately old habits are hard to break
anytime even a slight problem arises we slow down and talk it may take a a few minutes to get to that point but every-time we have we just ask questions and talk till tis no longer an issue or there is nothing else to say.
We used to ignore it and let it build up like a pressure cooker. Now we NEVER go to sleep angry. That's the key.
