When you and your lover have a argument, what do you do after? Do you let them cool off by leaving or do you try to quickly make up so the situation does not get any worse? I usually give space. I like to let the person cool off and then act as though nothing happened. No i don't forget but i also don't want to get my boo started again. Depending on what it is. I try to pick and choose my battles.

When there is an arguement.....and it does depend on how heated it gets....the best thing is to walk away so everyone can cool down. Then come back when everyone is cooled down and try to get things resolved in a calm manner.

Yeah like today, my mom knows that i work til 6pm and she calls me at like 4:30 or so. I work in a doctors office and was trying to schedule surgery for a patient. I tell her that i cant really talk right now and so she gets all snippy and says fine than dont bring anyone to my house, like she is really punishing me! I had to hang up because she should already know how i feel about interruptions at work! Not only that but i am able to freely chat online not on the phone. ****maugh**** i love ya

Well, it seems maybe you give your mother the impression that you aren't busy if you are constantly telling her that you are in putting stuff on your website at work so she calls to see how you are doing. That is why she might have called. But not to worry....I am sure she got the message. and I am triply sure she loves ya back.

Hi ejobsuccess! Just like you i choose my battles. At the height of our anger, we tend to say bad things which we regret at the end. But damage has been inflicted to our partners. During arguments, I try to control my temper. My partner and I have agreed not to use bad words in verbal arguments, not to use the fault committed by the other as an additional "weapon" to the present argument, and never to employ physical acts during heated arguments. But I think its best to address the issue or anything that bothers the two of you in a peaceful way and in the early stage so that it will not result to any further arguments.

I hear alot of arguing lately and well, if people can learn to bite the tongue and know that its never that serious or worth it to act all loud and disrruptive. Grow up and talk it out or walk it out!

Me too, I am a space giver. I get mad and start to say stupid spiteful stuff, so I back off and leave for awhile until I calm down and think clearly.
