Every relationship has its share of conflicts which if handled properly certainly gives a boost to relationship. Conflict gives the chance to express your opinion as well listen to the facts which are on the other side of the book. However, inability to handle conflict can create havoc and definitely ruin your relationship. Thus, you should always try to resolve such issues before things go out of hand.
In a situation of conflict you should always try to give your partner full attention without really thinking who is at fault. You should patiently listen to your partner and verbally assure him/her that you recognize and can relate to his/her feelings. You should wait for the pain or anger to subside and listen to your partner attentively and try to create closeness and trust. By doing this, the pain and anger will surely go away without becoming a cause of resentment later.
You can continue waiting and listening patiently until the time you feel sure and certain that the phase of anger and pain has passed away from your partner. You can now put forward your views and expect to be listened in the same way by your partner.
When you feel that there is no more chance of a conflict, you and your partner can look back and talk about what had happened. Both of you should try to maintain a healthy discussion and make sure that you handle the situation in a better way next time. Although it requires a huge amount of patience and self control, the rewards would definitely encourage you to follow this process.
