I usually keep quiet for a few minutes and give her time to cool off. Then I just go to her and massage her neck or just put an arm around her. I don't have to say anything; she just automatically smiles and everything's fine in the world again.

There is no quick way to end a quarrel with my spouse... he gets in his moods and wants to argue. If I argue, it makes it worse, if I don't it makes it worse. I try to just stay clear of him, but that doesn't always work!

haha. my bf should read this one. we always, ALWAYS fight. what i usually do is i give him the silent treatment, then he'll give me the silent treatment, then one will say something completely random (e.g. i want pizza) and the other will agree and we forget that we are in a fight.
Although sometimes, i get the urge to just let everything out, let the anger out i mean. and i don't want to 'nag'. so what i do is i say it in a different language, a language i understand but have difficulty speaking. so basically what happens is i go into this burst of angry tirade in a different language and i sound funny and my angry thoughts get disrupted because i have to think of a word for it and i get confuse and we'll end up laughing instead of fighting.

i will go out of the house and let him seethe in anger. I can't stand fights. They make me sick and angry. Escape is the easiest way out.

i just keep quiet also for a few minutes and he will be the first one to approach me and say sorry.. having a quarrel in a relationship is not really good and much no no if the both of you continue same situation until 2morow or the next day..much better if the both of you were ok before the day ends up..^_^

i just give him a silent treatment, while still doing usual things for him like preparing his food and while he can feel that im really very quite , coz i really try not to speak first during the quite moments and then usually while im busy doing sumthing he will just hug me from the back but i still try not to even smile, then thats the time he will tickle me till i laugh...and there we are already ok and try to talk about whats wrong or why the other speaks or act that way so next tym we will try to not to speak or act that way again to avoid arguments ;)

Me too i usually keep quiet for a few minutes, because if he's in the midst of anger and if you continue nagging, the more he get mad. After a couple of minutes, i just go to him and say sorry about what happened, after that we will talked and discussed things. And find solutions together.
