Stop Saying Things You'll Regret in Fights!

Let’s be real—arguing with my spouse happens. But I HATE when I say stuff I don’t mean and end up hurting them. 🙈 Here’s how I keep things from getting ugly: • I watch out for hostile remarks (like name-calling or threats). Those words sting and can’t be unsaid! 😬 • I try not to generalize. “You always…” or “You never…”? Nope! I pause, breathe, and get specific instead. • If things get heated, I take a break—sometimes a quick walk or just a few deep breaths helps me cool off. 🧘‍♂️ • I use “I” statements: “I feel hurt when…” instead of blaming. It keeps things honest without attacking. • I focus on solutions, not blame. We’re a team, not opponents! • And if I mess up? I apologize. Like, really apologize. No fake “sorry you feel that way.” Honestly, it’s made our relationship SO much stronger. ❤️ Anyone else working on this?
