    That was very helpful. My boyfriend and I were just argueing and i could have handled my self alot differently by what i just read. I decided to talk to him and tell him what i really feel instead of saying nothing is wrong with me. I will ask him to do the same.

    It was very helpful as I have tended to walk cautiously with my new partner for fear I would say something that would end our relationship. I now try to express my thoughts and feelings in a kind way but try to get across to him what I need. He seems to appreciate my honesy while not always agreeing with me. I believe we are growing in our understanding of each other.

    It takes two people, to learn how to argue.There usually is one who is not interested. Arguing is caring about anothers feelings, someone is being told there doing something wrong, and they either don't care, or don't want to deal with it. How many times can one person turn the other cheek. arguing is more about compromise, finding a way to make the other person care about your feelings right or wrong.

    Beautiful advice. I try to do it and it always works. I always express my feelings and hope that the other part does the same. Sometimes it can be a bit hurtful when we are angry and frustrating when we cannot agree. But there is never name calling. I believe in dialog. However, it can be exhausting and painful. Still, good relationships take a lot of effort, but they are so worth it!

    Did you grow up reading Dear Abby!?! I doubt very seriously that you paid much attention in you studies while getting that farce of a diploma that makes you think you are suited to give advise to people. Of all your blogs I've just read, the only thing I've learned is that you barely know what you're talking about in any of them. Maybe, if you just went out and experienced life first hand you would be better able to understand why so many people are dissatisfied with you and your supposed advice. I don't even have a degree, but I am willing to bet that I have been better able to help people than you have.
