How can I maintain my relationship?

Handle Conflict in Your Relationship

Arguing is an important part of a relationship and how you argue may determine whether your relationship lasts.

When arguing, allow your spouse a change to talk openly and freely, without belitting his or her feelings. Listen. Tell your partner how you feel.
Ask how he or she feels. Focus on the emotional implications of the argument and maintain the goal of being closer.
