Healthy And Balanced In Relationships Cont'd.

As I have said in the previous post that, arguments and or disagreements in a marriage is quite normal but never allow your home to become a battle-ground.  It is note-worthy to think of your health at all times.   The less stress marriage/relationship equals to a healthier life.

One of the dangers in stirring up battles is that when there is a disagreement, it can become very heated or blown out of proportion and can ignite hostility between you and your spouse.  The attacks may get to personal involving name-calling resulting in dismissing each other reasoning of opinions on the topic.  This can no doubt evaporates the trust that is so crucial to a healthy relationship.

Therefore, instead of looking at every argument to determine who 'won' or 'lost,' it would be more effective to take a look at your history together in your marriage.  if you are satisfied that you both have been giving fairly to each other, then the possibility is that you both know how to compromise and are doing good.

Again, listen to each other out, no matter how strongly you may feel about the issue.  It is a good practise to listen each other and repeat in your own words what you have heard the speaker said.  The speaker will decide if the listener understands their thoughts and feelings before moving forward.

At this point, you both will agree that each of you fully understand the other's position.  Everybody welcomes  being understood.

How do you handle your disputes in your relationship?  PLEASE JOIN IN THE CONVERSATION.

Have a joyful and healthy day!
