Conflict in a relationship can really make you second guess yourself. We must stand behind our belief system but also stay open to others beliefs. Some people can’t deal with conflict well at all. I used to be one of those people. I would get knots in my stomach and get all worked up. I gave in most of the time just to avoid that uncomfortable feeling.

Through finding my our voice and belief in myself I’m now able to manage conflict and stay true to myself. I’m open to others point of views and see both sides of a situation. Sure, my stomach may get in knots still but I’m able to stay calm.

A relationship is a work in progress in my opinion. Only time will tell if you can work through conflict with your partner. Stand your ground when it comes to your beliefs. Both parties need to stay open to each others beliefs. Let the little stuff go but try and work together on the big issues that really matter.

Always listen to your inner voice to guide you and make the best choices for your true self.
