In order to keep your marriage happy and successful, you must control your temper at all times. You cannot allow yourself to be hostile or angry towards your spouse. If you allow this to happen one time, it will most likely only continue for years to come. Everyone is going to have arguments, but what determines the success of your marriage is how you handle those arguments. You can control your temper under difficult circumstances, but you probably don't even realize you have this ability. You have done this in the past many times, but just don't realize when it was probably.

There are two things you can do right away to start controlling your temper in your relationship. When you notice yourself starting to get angry or frustrated with your significant other, you will need to go do these two things immediately. If you practice this on an ongoing basis, you will gain success and start to control your temper. You will no longer feel out of control and won't shout and yell at your partner.

Have you ever noticed whenever anyone answers the phone, they automatically default to a pleasant voice? Have you ever seen a receptionist for a law firm or big business in a grumpy mood, but when the phone rings she turns into a completely different person? You most likely have done this yourself, but don't realize it. Most likely when the phone rings, even if you are in the middle of an argument with your spouse, you answer it in a pleasant voice saying hello. The next time you start arguing with your spouse, make sure you think of answering the telephone. You may have to pause and take a five-minute break. Grab some water and sit down for some quiet time all by yourself. When you think of answering the telephone, this will help calm you down immediately.

The second way you can immediately start cooling your temper down is to prevent the arguments in the first place. There is one great technique I have learned over the years that will put everyone in a better mood during the day. From now on when you answer your telephone, you will need to answer it and say hi this is your husband's name, happy wife. You will be paying your husband a complement every time you answer the phone this way. You will be telling the truth and gaining points with your husband at the same time.

How to Deal With Arguments to Help Save Your Marriage

There is a study that says up to 70% of all marital disagreements will not be solved. That is an amazing fact to behold and it is not very reassuring for people who would like to get married someday or who are already in a marital relationship. No wonder disagreement is just one of the popular reasons for divorce.

Why do married couples disagree most of the time? Couples are still two individuals. They have different view points, opinions, comments and suggestions. They may like and dislike some things together but in some cases, there will be difference in judgment, hobbies, activities and reasoning. Even twin brothers and sisters are not that alike in terms of thinking, what more are two individuals who grew up in different atmosphere and culture and would eventually live under the same house for the rest of their lives?

In a marriage, argument stems from a lot of topics. A healthy relationship sometimes involves arguments but they agree to disagree because you just cannot change the viewpoint of one person. You can do this to your own relationship just as long as it is helpful in your case and not demeaning in any way. If a husband and wife argues about the same thing over and over again, then that is the time it can lead to a harmful relationship. In this case, you have to give way or you have to meet in the middle. If your partner wants you to help out more inside the house and you said you are too tired to do so, you can reach an agreement instead of doing one thing or the other. You can divide the household chores so you can still help out at home without being too tired coming home from your day job.

Instead on focusing on the conflict at hand, both the husband and wife should focus more on how to resolve the situation. If the conflict has no solution or if it is too petty to give an effort to, better stay away from it. You can instead spend time playing with your kids or relaxing with each other than taking time to argue about small problems such as who will get to hold the remote control, who takes the turn to wash the dishes or who left the water running in the faucet.

During an argument, aside from focusing on the solution, take careful notice on your actions. Do not quickly place the blame on your spouse for it can trigger being defensive on his or her part. Do not shout at each other and do not say hurtful words because this will not solve anything and will in fact worsen the problem. Voice out your opinion but take the time to listen to the opinion of your spouse as well.

Confrontation is hard on husband and wife for words can hurt deeply. However, there are moments when this is recommended. You cannot just avoid every conflict for it will leave a silent scar in you and in your spouse. Eventually, that scar will turn into deep resentment and the next thing you know, separation is knocking on your door.
