What do you wish your partner could understand about you when fights occur between the two of you?

As a couple, there will be days where you two will be getting along and days where you just don't get each other.

What do you wish your partner could understand better about you when such days come by?

@imontheoutside

In general I really wish there was a way to feel how somebody else feels and for everyone to be able to view things from another person's perspective to understand. Some people are good at doing that 2nd thing but some people are stubborn and close minded and they are the worst to argue with because it can leave you feeling so neglected.

@wonderousHeart14 Hi there! I can see what you are trying to say. Some people are indeed good at seeing things from another perspective but some people just do not do so. Some relationships would be better if it actually happens and the two people know about empathy!

I wish my partner would understand that I'm sensitive sometimes! And the things he says upsets me once in a while.

@jr50 sorry to hear that. Have you voiced to him how you feel now that you are getting older? It's never too late to make a change. Feel free to message me directly if you would like to chat about it in more detail. Take care and remember, you deserve happiness. Don't settle for anything less. xo

@jr50 yes it does take time but it is much better than having people in your life that do not. It feels a lot better and I am proud of you for engaging in this process even though it's slow. I think we can both see value in it. Good job! That takes courage. Keep going :)

@imontheoutside I wish that every couple would understand that shouting and saying hurtful things will only lead to regret and not getting your point across. Calm conversations will solve most problems without hurting each other. Good luck to all the couples out there <3 :)

@talkinghelps20

and even when not shouting i find its best to remember that hurtful words hurt. i need to work on my word choice and reaction time. be more calm. take his side into consideration. pitying myself doesnt help either of us and i will eventually react strongly and negatively.

Actually I wish he would do me a favor and just leave me alone, I am not sad over him abandoning me emotionally anymore, I am angry and just want to be done, I don't know if that is good or bad, but it is what it is. I am tired of the horrible things said to me and how I am made to feel like I am useless, I need to give him the real deal, but without my strong emotions behind it.

I wish she could understand that I'm not only far from perfect, but I am so flawed emotionally. I do take responsibility for my shortcomings and don't want to make excuses, but there is much more good that comes from me than bad. With that being said, I also need to understand it's not her responsibility to continually accept the things I do that hurt her.

@Sdnf4Iawu Relationships aren't perfect because the people in them are definitely not perfect, therefore I agree to the saying that says that a partner really could accept their loved one's flaws in a relationship for it to be successful and happy. Asking for forgiveness and making for all the hurt given is also part of getting past the obstacles in a relationship, definitely. I hope things are well with you and her now! xo
