This is the worst mistake people can make in a relationship…
You may sometimes have strong feelings about your partner.
And you think that if you have a strong feeling, you should act on it.
“We have to talk. We have to resolve this. We have to express our feelings. We have to communicate as a couple”.
Big mistake.
DON’T communicate when you are in an unstable state of mind.
Because it’s going to end up in an argument.
If you are overwhelmed by negative emotions, all you’re going to communicate is negativity.
You’ll say things you don’t mean—and you’ll ignite and pull your partner into the flames.
And they will say things that they don’t mean.
You’ll both become reactive until you are exhausted.
What should you do?
Let your strong feelings pass first.
Don’t deny them. Accept them.
And when the strong feelings have passed—and IF there’s something left to communicate—communicate with your partner once the flames have died down.
This will save SO much wear and tear in your relationship.
Loving you, Angelos
