SWM 131 – Tips to fight more effectively
Manage episode 418841204 series 2761019
SWM 131 - Tips to fight more effectively in your marriage. Check out the blog post here for more details and links.
Last week, I shared a list of ideas our Couple’s Night group had that helped build a resilient marriage. At the end of the call, we still had some time and started discussing fighting more effectively. Again, the group came up with some excellent ideas I want to share today.
Because fights will happen, I might even say they should happen. When I come across a couple that doesn’t fight in any way - that’s a red flag. It means one or both don’t feel safe in the marriage. They aren’t able to express their views and opinions.
Because if you put two people together for long enough, they will eventually find something to disagree about.
Ideally, a fight won’t involve yelling, screaming, hitting, throwing, or anything else like that, but it’s okay to quarrel.
So, today, we will discuss how to fight more effectively in your marriage so that your arguments can be a source of growth instead of damage.
