Hello Friends,
So, you are in a close relationship, and it doesn't matter what the character is beyond "close" or how you define it. In a disagreement, one of you or both are offended, or one of you violates the other's trust. You seek to resolve this situation amicably and as fast as it is prudent. Will one of you win and one of you lose? No. You both must win, or you both will lose.
During my long years of relationship experience, I discovered that if I impose my solution because I claim to know best, it will cost me in the long run: the relationship suffers. The only real solution I have discovered is one in which we both win. How that is defined depends on those involved and the conflict.
Both partners may have to give a little to gain a lot. If I impose my way and it damages the relationship, I lose, too. Have your priorities clear and communication truthful and accurate.
Let love win over all.
