I find that sometimes I get overly attached to my own point of view. I try to relax and find a place where I can give a little w/o losing my identity. If I just say okay - I start to get resentful...

I also try to let the other person have the last word when I realize that my having the last word is nothing more than a pride issue - in other words it does nothing to resolve the issue. This is usually when both sides are just repeating the same argument with a little rephrasing.


AG, this is me also. I stubbornly want the last word. And sometimes I don't want to necessarily commit to something if I'm only agreeing to keep the peace.

Beth, not sure about that...seems that when I'm upset I become clueless about what to do. I guess I'll do yoga. \:\)

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.
