I completely agree. Through CBT, I have learn, when faced with conflict. Look inside with question. What am I feeling? Might feel heat flash, or anger toward what I am hearing. Let feeling build inside to a point, then it will subside. So that way I am in a safe calm place. Here I can analyze what is being said, my view and well as my partners, and communicate calmly and rationally. With no blame, admit my fault to the situation, and jointly figure out a solution. Maybe the solution is we both agree to disagree. But we walk away with no animosity or resentment, and a solution that we both are good with (and came to the solution together). Perhaps making our relationship stronger and better
