5 additional ways couples can argue fairly

  1. Stay in the present moment.

    Past cannot be changed. If you cannot let go of the past, your partner will give up because he/she may think whatever he/she does will not make a difference.

  2. Do not go to sleep after argument..

    unless it is resolved. It is also important not to argue in bed or in the dark.

  3. Mutual decision to walk away.

    Make a mutual decision to walk away and cool down if needed.

  4. Be mindful of your body language.

    Finger pointing is often condescending. People pay attention to how your message is delivered rather than the words themselves.
