TONE

It is very important to be mindful of your tone when you’re trying to get your point across to your spouse. Sometimes you may not know how you’re coming across to your spouse, and before you realize it, there is a shouting match going on that no one is winning.
It’s true you can’t change anyone, but you can change your reaction. I’ve learn that bringing attention to my groom’s tone (why are you yelling, or are you upset) will hold him accountable for his action. In which, he may have to do the same for me. It’s definitely a conscious effort, and may take time to adjust. What are some of your ways of avoiding heated discussions with your spouse?
