If you are mad at someone will you still say "I love you" before you go to bed at night? I'm sure for some people this is a hard thing to do.

My husband never , ever goes to sleep or let me go to sleep when we had a fight, without making peace and say "I love you" to each other. At the beginning I found it very annoying, but as time went by, I understood that for your own sake, for your own health, it's the best to go to sleep when you're calm and quiet. Plus, most of the fights can be solved, not at the same moment, but after a little while. First take the time to calm down, to reason with your self, and then go and discuss with the other, what went wrong. Communication is the key to everything. Good communications, and of course compromise, is essential in any relationship. Not only with your life partener, but with your kids, at work, with your friends, everywhere.

No, when I am mad, I mad.. If anything I may say that I hate them.. But, I will never say that.. When I cool off, then I may say that I love him.

When Im mad at my husband I still say I love you but follow it with I just dont like you right now. Then he will say something smart back and usually the madness goes away. Even though you are mad right then it shouldnt change your love.

I think so. Being mad doesn't change your love for someone. Maybe you just don't feel like saying it. But what is important is that, you say "I Love You" because you mean it and not because you are obliged to.

It's hard to do, but it needs to be done. If I'm mad and not speaking to my boyfriend before one of us leaves the house I always make sure to say I love you. You never know what could happen. I would never want something to happen to him and for the last things I said to be mean and hurtful.

Honestly I do not say "I love You" when I'm mad about my husband. After a long thinking of what issue we argued, I hug him a way of saying "I love you,and make things work out again.

Hi Shar19.. This discussion made me smile remembering the fights I had with my beau. Its really difficult to say I LOVE YOU when I am mad especially if our fight is very big but we really try our best to patch things up before we go to bed. Sometimes he said I LOVE YOU to soften me and that really works all the time.

This is hard for me to do, but there are times I will force myself to say it. My boyfriend on the other hand will always say it, even if he is mad at me.
