But conflict is also closeness.
Courage to be vulnerable, acceptance not only of romantic expressions, but also of anger, sadness, pain of a partner.
The ability to accept different sides of relationships without fear of conflict opens up new facets of intimacy between partners.
Consider the following:
Were we able to discuss our points of view?
Did I say exactly what I wanted to say?
What was the purpose of the conflict?
Did I talk about my desires in such a way that my partner would be pleased to do it for me?
Did someone offend someone in the conflict?
What did I gain from the conflict?
What could I have done differently?
Did we feel more close at the end?
Discuss with your partner the opportunity to talk about your feelings so that the other does not feel that he is being silenced.
Discuss ways with your partner when you realize that the partner does not want to listen to you ("sticky" on the phone, movies, books, music in headphones, TV, etc.)
Discuss with your partner the ways in which you try to change or control each other (sarcasm, criticism, threats, etc.)
For starters, let it be a trial period of a month or even two weeks.
What has changed in the course of such an agreement? Have you become closer to each other?
Did you manage to adhere to the terms of the contract for the entire appointed period?
What difficulties arose during this experiment?
Share, do you try to avoid conflicts with your partner and not talk about your desires?
Or, on the contrary, do you express your emotions very violently in a conflict? Yelling, breaking dishes and throwing things?
Or does conflict bring you even closer? Helps to be yourself and at the same time accept a partner?
