I am newly married and I know I married the right person for me. But lately we've been arguing, not yelling and screaming, just talking back and forth with tension in our voices. Upset.
So today I just had it and instead of trying to defend myself with words, or explain myself any further I just apologized. Even though in this instance I felt he was wrong. I apologized.
Do you find that you as a woman, have to make the sacrifice, apologize, even when you're RIGHT just so that you guys can move on and have peace in the house? Am I alone in this?
I've learned a few things which is not to argue with my husband, cause he can't take it. Gives him headaches, makes him even more angry. The next time he has a grievance, I plan to listen and shut up, then apologize and move on.
This goes against the grain for me, because I like to explain where I was coming from when I said or did this or that. What I was thinking, how I was feeling, etc. But you know what? That just causes us to argue more, so I give up, give in and I'm sorry.
Looking for support, understanding and similar feelings.
