MARRIAGE MINUTES WITH MARIA~JULY 19, 2012:
The Don'ts of Conflict
* Don't be ashamed of your anger
* Don't call in heavy artillery or use deadly weapons
* Don't air your dirty linen in public
* Don't paint yourself in a corner
* Don't use the turtle approach (don't climb into your shell)
* Don't keep a chip on your shoulder
* Don't use sex as a weapon
Darrell & I are definitely not ashamed to show anger. We do express it calmly however. We never go into "shells". We express our disdain and move on. We don't hold grudges. We just let one another know how we feel. We settle it & that's that. We do not withhold sex as a weapon. Big no-no! We never go to bed mad & always kiss good night....our feet touching all night long. Haha...it's "our thing."
