5 of the Best Ways to Win Arguements

1- Choose your battles. Don't pick on everything. Let the little things go. You "WIN," if you lose the battle to win the war, which is a lasting relationship.
2- You "WIN" if you praise your partner for good stuff and pass on chances to criticize. Don't fake it, but if it's real...say it sincerely. "I love your outfit or I really like your hair like that."
3- Say "I'm sorry" when you've done something wrong and say it quickly. Don't argue for hours and then eventually say it to make peace. It will wear you both down.
4- Forgive immediately when offered an "I'm sorry". Let it go. Don't hold grudges.
5- If your partner is upset with you and you realize that it's for a good reason, listen to them explain why they're upset and then apologize. Two goods things; you listened and apologized.

"Winning" is really not winning anything. Forget turf and concentrate on kindness, compassion and good communication.
