No doubt man, that's a big problem in my M too. I just steamrolled my W whenever we had an argument, or if her opinion was different from mine. She ALWAYS gave in to AVOID conflict. We would not be here today if we had ANY clue how to REALLY talk to each other even 6 months ago.
I'm learning the skill, now I need another shot to use it.
Honestly, if you want some really good knowledge in that arena, go to http://www.makingherhappy.com - it's good stuff, just use it judiciously as it can be aggressive.
We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
