Don't schedule serious conversations when tempers are high. Find a cool place to share where both participants feel relaxed and more open to hearing.

2. Use 'I' Statements Instead of Blame

Say "I feel" instead of "You always." This helps prevent becoming defensive and keeps the talk from shifting into accusations and brings emotion into the conversation.

To be active in listening is to respect. Allow your partner to finish without interruption and acknowledge their point of view before saying yours.

4. Keep Your Tone Calm and Respectful

By tone, one can escalate or diffuse tension. By speaking in a soft tone and by maintaining a respectful body language, one can ensure that disagreements are not slight enough to degenerate into a fight.

5. Keep One Issue at a Time

Do not go back in the past shouting about your wrongs during the discussion. Deal with one issue at a time so that there are no overwhelming feelings and unnecessary arguments.

6. Take Breaks When Needed

When one or both of the partners feel their emotions running hot, it is completely all right to stop the conversation. Taking a bit of time out helps both partners to cool off and return with clearer minds to discuss the subject at hand.

7. Make it End with Understanding, not Winning

There is nothing like arguing with healthy communication. Winning an argument is about achieving mutual understanding, and this is what healthy communication is about when it comes to relationship building.

Importance of Healthy Communication

Clear and respectful communication builds trust, emotional safety, and long-term intimacy. This is how couples can deal with their problems without bearing grudges and developing emotional gaps.

Fights are normal in every relationship
