There is no relationship without conflicts

Every relationship has to have conflicts, whether it is a friendship, family relationships ( e.g : mother - daughter ) or others. Now, why should we have conflicts in a relationship? Isn't conflict a bad thing? Well, every relationship has to have conflict as it is a part of life. Conflicts are not neccesarily bad, it eithers strengthens or weakens your bond with your loved ones. Conflicts may lead to deeper understanding, respect and others. On the other hand, it can also cause many problems which may later result in separation or divorce.


Always remember, to solve a conflict, both parties have to be in their right state of mind. Always be equal when you resolve a poblem. The word "equal" here means that both parties have to admit their mistakes and look at the particular problem from different angles, not just look at it from one side. Besides, if you are not in a good mood at that particular time, relax first. Then, deal with the poblem. Also, always respect your partner. Be honest as you must create a mutual understanding in order to resolve the problem. Last but not least, NEVER have a negative attitude as in NEVER HAVE THE ATTITUDE OF ALWAYS WINNING as it can destroy your relaionship.


Lets see how you can resolve conflicts in a relationship :
  • IDENTIFY THE ISSUE
  • GENERATE POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
  • DECIDE ON THE BEST SOLUTION
  • IMPLEMENT THE SOLUTION, don't just leave it .
  • FOLLOW UP EVALUATION ( always ask your partner if the solution is working is not)
To conclude, as mentioned above, every relationship must have conflicts in order to know your loved ones better, improve one's weaknesses and to strengthen your bonds. But remember, your conflicts with your loved ones will only be resolved if both or all parties stay TRUE to themselves.
