Stale Mate
as opposed to a fresh one like mine 
Just curious how you all conduct yourselves when you have a difference of opinion with your loved one. Are you most often able to discuss it without it escalating to an argument? Or do things typically get heated?
Do you "fight fair", ie. keeping to just the issue at hand, explain it from your point of view without making accusations and placing blame? Or is all fair in love and love? Does your better half?
Are you the type of person who admits when you are wrong? Can you agree to disagree? Do you need to be told that you are right and conceded to? How do your disagreements usually end? Someone just gives up? Make up sex? |

Cobalt and I are able to discuss things. I don't think that we have EVER gotten into a heated argument...we had too much of that sort of thing with our ex's.
We both recognize the fact that there are time that we will disagree or have a difference of opinion - and that doesn't make either one of us wrong or right - just different. Life is too short to spend any of it arguing or getting upset about something to the point there is yelling or anger...

Believe it or not, we have foam bats. Like Nerf bats? We go grab them and start whacking each other. After about 10 minutes, we're laughing so hard that the disagreements fade, and all becomes ridiculous. 
Sure, there are some times when we have heated discussions. But, that will usually pass. And in the bigger scheme of things, is it REALLY that important how the butter is placed on the butter dish? (Well, to him it is. LOL)

Bingo! (For lesson in restraint, see post in "Pet Peeve" thread.)

HA!
i'd be thrilled if he would just replace the damn stuff
he'd be thrilled if i would remember to close the butter compartment's lid in the fridge so it doesn't fall out and bash a pound of rock hard butter onto his foot when he opens the door.  |

If things get heated, I like to leave the room or the apartment just to let things calm down. I do that especially when I see he's about to say something unrelated to the topic at hand (pet peeve #5596).
