Managing conflict is one of the hardest parts of being in a long-term relationship. 💛
Often, the same arguments resurface over and over again without ever getting fully resolved. 🔄
And here’s why:
We enter the conversation already heated. 🔥
We don’t take time to cool down or de-escalate. 😮💨
We’re not truly listening to our partner. 👂
We avoid apologizing when it’s needed. 🙇♂️
We focus on “winning” instead of seeking compromise. 🤦♀️
