“Avoid name-calling and insults, as they lead to intensified arguing. If you’re feeling angry, directly state, “I feel angry.” This is concise and clear. It avoids manifesting your anger in the form of insults, names, or sarcasm. If you’re so angry or frustrated that you become overwhelmed, step away for a moment. Take responsibility for seeking your partner out to continue the conversation once you’ve calmed down.”
