dont hold it in...

if something is irking you try to diffuse the tension by being humorous about it...

like, if someone ate your last piece of candy call em on it...but laugh it off...holding grudges is soo 90's...


unless they killed your first born or something...then just call em on it and be rude...and walk away so they have to hang their head down in shame...

When I'm tense, it helps to brew some tea, turn on my local classical station and go off alone somewhere. The org and eBay help too. smile

That awkward silence following a fight or argument SUCKS. I've learned--mostly by fucking up--that the best approach is to take some time to myself and find out if the problem is REALLY as big as I thought it was. Fact: most arguments are over stupid shit. When I come to this realization, I usually just go up to my partner and simply give them a hug. I'll whisper in their ear, "I don't want to fight, OK? Let's sit down and see if we can talk this out."

But that hug is CRUCIAL. You MUST connect with your partner to reassure them that you love them and that you want to communicate with them.

Resolve the situation 1st so that its not left playing on Ur mind..

Meanwhile, try and relax. The best thing is 2 be around friends who make U laugh and forget the thing playing on Ur mind.

Well said! However its not always that simple if the OTHER party is not cooperative. (resolving the issues, I mean) I dont hold "grudges" as it only makes the tension U R feeling worse. I always try 2 "work things out" with the perpetrator...Being "silent" about the "issue(s)" NEVER solves ANYTHING, & "REVENGE", is uncivilized, infantile, and very immature, not 2 mention time consuming, and 2 let the "issue(s)" prey on ones mind will make U ill. So JD has good advice in trying 2 B with friends that are not so much on the "DARKSIDE" and who U have "FUN" with. cool
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses
