When You and Your Husband Have Misunderstanding

Would you make the first move unmindful of who is right or wrong ?
I guess misunderstanding is something natural to all couples. I and my husband have had misunderstandings over petty things but we always "kiss and make up" as soon as we could.
For few times it was my husband who did the first move to reconciliation but most times, I was the one (of course swallowing my pride for the sake of peace). And I guess my heart easily softens up when I remember the goodness of my husband.
Today, I do have misunderstanding with him but I swear, I won't make the first move this time even if he has been a very good, faithful, thoughtful, hardworking husband to me for almost 32 years now. Sometimes I am also very tough you know.

For men I think it is short lived while women would harbour that misunderstanding for days and bring it up often. The famous quote 'After the storm comes the calm, after the calm comes the sunshine' served us well.

I will make the first move, after almost 50 years nothing is worth staying mad over.

@salonga , I have a hard heart, which is probably why I have never married. If a man upsets me, I walk away and don't look back. So, I would say, that your husband should make the effort to make peace. But, that is me. So, I will say instead that I hope that you decided to do what suits you in regards to the misunderstanding.

Sometimes you really have to be tough in a situation. But me, I cannot imagine how our life will go on with misunderstanding for even a day so I always make the first move, and do it most of the time, in the evening when we go to bed.

I'm surprised! Why are you being stubborn this time? Or, are you just pretending to be tough?

Whenever a friend of ours had a misunderstanding with his wife (bless her soul; she passed away 2 or 3 years ago), he would go see a movie and when he came home, a nice dinner has been prepared on the table :)

So this time you are determined on not compromising. But I am sure you will melt very soon.
Hope these things makes the relationship stronger and strongest. 32 years is long time which means both of you are compromise and stand up for each other.

Ha ha, that's normal for a couple, it just make the more romantic and sweeter relationship for you. It's not important who make the first move, what's important is there always someone who make the first move.

We usually carry on as usual. It never last two long. We may have a disagreement one moment and the next we are talking again. We never stay upset with each other. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff.
