How do you handle differences with your partner?

Hi,alen,I think have a talk works for me,if a problem surfaces I always try to find a way to solve it not to hurt both of us.Sometimes it takes a long time to arrive the common agreement,but the result is very acceptable and both of us r happy.

Of course you should never give up. That's the reason why you are in a relationship because you relate to each other. Being in the state of connectedness, in mutual dealings with the person whom you are having a relationship with. How do you handle y our differences? Acceptance is the key. And patience too, it should be one of the values that we need to possess when you are in a relationship. Another way is to understand even though me might not actually understand. And another thing, I saw this when I was reading a book and its say, "problems arise when the major goal is self-fulfillment". Being selfless I think is also the key to make a relationship work. I know its hard, but we have to try.

we talk....My husband and I are complete opposites so there have been MANY differences that have come up over the past 11+ yrs and in the beginning we would sometimes fight over them..but as time went on and we grew as a couple etc we learned to work it out..talk it over, compromise and so on

Basing upon this past 7 years in marriage our differences has a big impact on our marriage because we have different upbringing & it is almost a cause in every fight we have but I am the one who always give way or sacrifice for the marriage to work out. Its really a big deal but I don't mind as long as we are both happy having each other we are just both doing the best that we can be.

ACCEPTANCE is the key in every relationship. Learn to adjust in your partner. It's not always that you or your partners views should be followed. That is all you need to do..
