It’s hard to ignore the prevalence of conflict in our everyday lives. We can hear it with our eyes closed and see it with our ears plugged with headsets.
And all it takes is a simple shove for even the deaf and dumb to realize that conflict is never too far away.
We also feel it within ourselves. Who has not struggled with choosing between identical items simply because they are of different colors?
Internal conflict is terrible enough, but that’s a whole other story. Every type of What Every Couple Should Know About Conflict Management.conflict starts with at least two individuals, and for the sake of this article, we will concentrate on the contention among couples.
This blog post will define conflict management, dive into the root causes of conflict and suggest ways of effectively resolving conflict.
What is Conflict Management?
Conflict management is the sum of the steps a couple can take to handle the disagreements that arise from personality differences, unhealthy emotional interaction, and other factors.
A couple who have prioritized working on their differences should start by finding the root causes of their conflicts and attacking them rather than themselves.
In the next section, we will examine the leading causes of conflict in a relationship.
What Causes Conflict in a Relationship?
Many factors can cause conflict in a relationship, such as pressure at work, economic constraints, etc.
Nevertheless, upon closer examination of what makes couples bicker, several trends are exposed. They are:
1 Refusal to See Matters from the Other Person’s Perspective
This is probably the number one course of relationship issues.
Any relationship where the parties quickly dismiss their mate’s concerns and fears as just “fuss” is heading down the wrong path.
Many couples have problems because they fail to see their mate as someone who deserves to be heard and understood. I mean, it’s one of the worst ways to rub someone off their dignity.
2. Uncontrolled Anger
Anger is hard to resist when you’ve been spited—or at least think so.
If you’ve been pissed off by something your SO (significant other) did, it’s often a good idea to ask yourself if you think your mate really wanted to hurt you.
At the same time, take a deep breath and take the emphasis away from yourself. In other words, pause for a moment and stop concentrating on your hurt feelings. Instead, look beneath the surface and see what contributed to the issue.
That insight will help you to keep your hurt feelings in check.
3. Poor Communication
When couples communicate poorly or even angrily, it’s hard for the loving atmosphere that once prevailed to stay.
Without good communication, neither of the mates will know what the other one is feeling or facing.
For couples to communicate well requires that each of them listen carefully when the other person is speaking.
Avoid the snare of assembling formulas in your head when your mate is speaking. Remember, the other person needs you to understand their point of view.
In Conclusion
Conflicts can be a thorn in a relationship. However, knowing what erupts them is the first step to handling them well.
Finally, couples would do well to apply the tips in this article and, if necessary, consider getting a relationship coach for help tailored to their exact issues.
