Arguments challenge our authority and status. They can often get in the way with building a relationship. Especially, when we can’t find a healthy way to resolve conflict.
The question is, what is it for?
To gain something that is lost? To hide from something we are afraid of? To make a stand at an invisible line you drew in the hypothetical sandbox?
Why are you having this argument? When you can identify your needs, you will spend less time arguing and instead move closer to finding a solution.
