It is easy to become angry and harder to hold your tongue. Patience is a virtue. It is easy to react in anger. And anger can get in the way. I know that. I am working on that.
And when the other erupts, sometimes the best course of action is not to say anything but let her words wash over you. And let her calm down. You can’t discuss issues when tempers are flaring.
And words sometimes hurt. When both of you have calmed down and neither feel threatened the timing is better to discuss conflict. It is harder in practice of course but it is worth trying.
