We are working on that , we recently got back together after around 6 months of seperation and I at least feel like we r relearning each other both physically and emotionally , so we really haven't had a lot of conflict yet
NOT TO WELL MY BF IS NOT THE TYPE TO TALK THINGS OUT AND WHEN HE TELLS ME SOMETHING I BLOW UO AND SAY SHXT I DONT MEAN AN I HATE IT WE USE TO CAN TALK ABOUT ALL OF OURS PROBLEMS NOW I FEEL LIKE I CANT RUN TO HIM I JUST KEEP MY FEELINGS IN UNTILL HE ASKS
Just talk through whatever is bothering us until its resolved. Usually having to compromise on both side in order for that to happen.
Silence, brush it under the rug, or argue / yell my brains out
I try to talk it out as best I can but if I get angry I cry so it takes forever to get my point across
We are pretty good at talking about things. Although we haven't really had a fight. Just little arguments. We both understand the value of compromise I think.
In the worst way possible

I would like for us to always be open with each other, and communicate about everything. I don't feel that there should ever be any "issues". We should be able to talk about "issues" like we talk about the weather - no stress involved. Should just be another conversation, a part of life. Him on the other hand? EVERYTHING feels like an issue or conflict. His way of dealing with conflict is avoiding it. He will go through great lengths to avoid conflict - even LIE!
I know how you feel!

I am definitely all about talking it out. I can be stubborn especially if I know I am right. And sometimes I can be confrontational. And he usually tries to keep the peace. If its a fight I caused I will apologize and admit if I am wrong. I tend to be a cryer too :( but I hate to fight. Period.
Blow it out of proportion which is not good. Working on change.
i try to avoid it at all cost
Fight. Talk. Laugh. Love
Say one thing we love about each other, one thing we need to fix, then end with I'm sorry and a kiss
They come few and far between but the rare event they do, It's easy as 1-2-3. talk our issues out calmy, apologise, then go back to being us.
I have a big mouth. That says it all!
