Stop Arguing With Your Girlfriend And Enjoy Life!
Arguments with your girlfriend, unfortunately, are a fact of life at some point in a relationship. Even if the relationship seems to be going really great, there'll some a point where you find yourselves bickering. Sometimes arguments pop up from the middle of nowhere – one minute you're having a great time together, then the next you're picking each other apart!
Sometimes you feel just as bad whether you "won" or lost! Is it possible to quit the bickering and get along while the relationship is still strong?
Stop Arguing with Girlfriend Tip #1 — Don't Drown Yourself in Details
If you fight about every trivial thing, then even the important things will wind up appearing trivial. Is it really important to get your way all the time? Do you think it's possible? Or desirable? Let's say she's got a problem getting somewhere on time – is it really worth it to get into a fight every time she's a few minutes late? However you react to her tardiness will set the tone for the evening. Does it make sense to start the evening off on such a negative note? If it doesn't, give her – and you – a break, and drop it.
Don't misunderstand – there are plenty of big things that might happen that you'll have to confront her on. My advice to let the small things slide doesn't mean I'm advocating infidelity. You've got to confront her as soon as you find out about such major transgressions. But if she drank the last of the milk last night and there's none for this morning's coffee, so what? Have a cup of black coffee and leave it be!
Stop Arguing with Girlfriend Tip #2 — Share Your Heart
It's something about men – we've got a bad habit of keeping problems to ourselves. We start building up this anger inside that turns to rage. This is a really destructive approach to problem-solving For instance, if you find yourself picking up the tab all the time and it bothers you, let her know that it feels wrong to you.
You've got to be adult about it, though – don't simply accuse her of being cheap. Not everything that annoys you was done deliberately for that purpose. Many women don't want to pay in public because they don't want their men to feel embarrassed. If, during your talk, you find this to be the case, it should be a lot easier for you to find a solution to your problem.
A straightforward, honest discussion with your girlfriend is actually a great way to stay out of fights!
Stop Arguing with Girlfriend Tip #3 — Be a Trend-Spotter
The individual topics of our arguments might be trivial, but we can sometimes discern a pattern in a group of such disputes. Take the lead in trying to end the arguing – examine the last few arguments and look for a common thread, some similarity among them all.
If your fights seem to focus on one or two specific issues, you should sit down together and calmly discuss those issues. If there's something about her behavior that's bugging you, don't tell her there's something wrong with her – tell her how you feel when she does it. When you share your feelings with each other you gain a greater insight into each others' hearts and you'll act accordingly. Problems have a way of shrinking, and solutions become more obvious, when the two of you are sharing and working together.
Frankly, this is what relationships are all about – sharing how you feel with her. You're in an adult relationship, not a competition, so stop trying to win and start really communicating. That way, you'll be able to put the petty bickering behind you and enjoy the lovely woman you call your girlfriend!
