How can I break this harmful pattern?
Relationship Stress / by Tsureal
Last post

...See more I have a problem in my relationship where my partner brings an issue to me and I tend to focus on deflection or justifications rather than owning the issue The problem for me I think is that the context makes my actions make sense to me, and so I defend myself based on that, but only after do I see that this is only partially true at best I think some of the issue is that it feels like I'm being attacked and so I get defensive, but in the end it isn't how I want to handle the situation Does anyone have any advice?
