3. QUESTION:

All relationships have different dynamics. Generally, I’ve found the quickest way to resolve relationship conflicts peacefully is to learn to compromise. Most conflicts tend to take place because of a difference in opinion (selfishness plays a large part as well). Compromise and understanding of the person’s point of view helps minimize (or outright eliminate) any sort of conflict. I’ve personally found that the more aligned you both are in core values, the easier it is to resolve relationship conflicts. Remember: All parties must own up to their mistakes and fully acknowledge their role in whatever disagreement/conflict took place. If not, it will continue. The best course of action is to always take ownership of what you say and do. It’s also helpful to work on yourself. You and your relationship(s) deserve it. Believe me when I say, the only person you’ll ever be able to change is you. I found there is no room in my life to play the “blame game”. If I engaged, even the “slightest” way, I’m also culpable for the result. Be a good listener. And remember! Lying to yourself never helped anyone. The more honest you are with others and yourself, the healthier you will become.
