RESOLVE CONFLICTS

Finding solutions and ways in which to resolve conflicts can be easier said than done. Though, when conflicts arise, a couple needs to assess the situation and choose how to act and adjust to arrive at a point of agreement. A couple’s arguments can range from something as simple as disagreeing on where to eat for dinner to much more serious matters such as contemplating divorce. Fleeing, ignoring, or fighting over issues will not bring the satisfaction of resolution and peace. Focusing on the problem at hand and concentrating on the facts rather than blaming or acting out on emotions is an effective way to tackle conflicts and promote long-term gratification in a relationship. Compromise when possible, get down to the real issue and heart of the problem as usually arguments occur when someone needs or wants are not being met.
