When you have managed to pass the seven-year itch many times over, in marriage you are doing something right. Life is full of give-and-take. Things go bananas when there is no balance. When you feel tight, just walk away. In a relationship there are always three sides to a story, partner A's story, partner B's story and the truth.
In a family with young children and or teenagers, a couple needs private time away to discuss subjects that should be private. When you go out with your spouse to talk because you were invited to talk, the conversation should be a two-way street. This is how it is if you want your relationship to last, everything said should be taken with a grain of salt and no one should feel crowded. No one is more right than the other.
If you are not ready for dialogue do not initiate one. Be ready to negotiate and be ready to walk away if you feel uncomfortable. Also be ready to come back when you have sufficient time to think. There is no reason to have any animosity between you. Even though the topics might be personal, the tone should not be accusatory.
Always be ready to understand, if you are not ready to talk, please keep quiet until the time comes. As a bartender I have the skills to know when to walk away and when to talk. We all want the best we can get out of life. We also have our idea of how we are going to achieve our success. The clash of ideas and delivery of them, creates brings about our stubbornness and many times there are stalemates.
Openness and the realization that life is too short and the positive promotion of thought leads all interested parties to work things out and develop and discover new new positives.
