[size=13pt]If it was me, I'd leave him for a while to make sure my head is clearer. The last thing I'd want to do is argue or continue to disagree with anger. When reconvening, ask for his/her input and try to understand what's upsetting him/her and vice versa. Then, try to find a solution of which both can be happy.[/size]

cuddling will do nada!!! who cuddles wen she is seething abegi!

wat i do is dis: keep mum til im cool headed enuf to think and then i put myself in his shoes and try to understand why he is so set in his ways. once i understand, i ll review my own opinion, make amendments and come up with a solution dat we both agree with.

the good thing is, he does same so wen im ready to accommodate him, he is will to bend too.....

First of all, they should both realize that no one is perfect, and no one is always right. No matter how perfect a relationship is, disagreements are bound to happen. When they do happen, saying sorry to the one you love shouldn't be as difficult as climbing a mountain, especially when you are wrong. It's not about winning the argument, but to understand why there was an argument in the first place and making sure it doesn't re-occur often.

Avoid the "I told you so" mentality. It does more harm than good. That he/she is your spouse doesn't mean you have a monopoly over their actions. You can suggest to them and still let them decide what to do, cos hey, your idea if followed to the bone may prove disastrous. So what will you do if your idea fails? Don't force your ideas on them. When a disagreement occurs, it has occurred. You cannot change the consequences. Disagreements can never be settled when you are both angry. When angry, no one will want to listen to what the other has to say, and there'll be no time to analyze yourself and see if you need to change your stance. Someone should be the bigger person and walk away for a few mins. Give yourselves time to cool off.

Never ever have make up sex or kiss or cuddling if you haven't talked about the disagreement. If you jump to sex, fine, it may be settled but don't be suprised when it resurfaces in no time at all. When talking things over, you should both listen to each other. Communicate. Communication doesn't mean scolding one for what you perceive to be their wrong. Express yourselves. Say why her words hurt. Say why you said the hurting words, and when you say sorry, be sure you mean it. . . A relationship can never be successful if you both are not forgiving. Learn to forgive and forget. Forgetting means that you never ever re-visit the forgiven issue even though they repeat it in future. Treat each issue as a new one cos if you keep harbouring previous resentment against the one you love, I'm really and truly sorry for your ministry. . .

Fuel don finish for my hand. Brb.

First of all,its not ideal to let conflicts extend for too long, as it creates even more avenue for other evils to come in/happen! Conflict should be resolved earliest. Never let any disagreement drag for too long!
Women like to talk and express themselves-communication!
So talk it out. Both couples should sit and talk it out! For me i think talking it out is the second step while the first is taking some few minutes/hours to calm myself down and also let him calm down for a few minutes as well!

Talk, talk and more talk. When I say talk, I mean converse in a manner that brings the problem to the fore without rancour. Accept responsibilities for parts played and dialogue on a way forward. It may occur again but talking constantly will help resolve issues.

Turn the fight to physical. Lol.

On a more serious note, different people work out differently. You need to understand what works best for yourself and your partner. Some people need to pour their heart out and speak their minds. Some men like to go out of the house and come back later. Some want to trash out the issues. Some might decide to speak to trusted friends or elders for some advice. It all depends on the couple and on the issue at hand. Hopefully, the issue is not a case of cheating.

communication and reflecting back on the past good moments they once shared may help to bring back passion.....
Re: What Are The Best Ways For Couples To Resolve Conflicts? by Princesszoe: 3:54pm On May 08, 2013
Hahahahah @ slimming. Whatever the case maybe, none of them should step out of the house that day without the case being resolved because they might ran into the arm of a man or woman outside and that is the beginning of extra marital affair which must definitely suck the glory of the marriage dry. Again they should make sure that they resolve their differences before the following morning otherwise a cuba will be added to the matter.
