Cooler Heads Were Once Hot Heads!


I have talked to several friends asking them how anger is handled in their relationships. I was not shocking to find out that all of them say it starts with yelling and ends with an adult conversation. Even the most adult of the gay couples I know yell and scream at each other. Then once the steaming stops, they have an adult conversation followed by hot makeup sex. To be more accurate EVERY couple I know, gay or straight, yells and screams.  It is never taken personally, it is simply a sigh of frustration and a method to release it so the topics can be discussed with calm heads.

I agree with this method on dealing with issues with ones significant other. MeTo however dose not and thus why I typically don’t bother talking. It is hard to deal with issues when you are never allowed to truly vent. This typically leads to blow ups and MeTo will tell you, those are dangerous. 

So my friends yell at each other with love and understanding. When cooler heads come up to talk things can get taken care of and that’s how lasting relationships last.
