  1. I’ve found that one of the best things two people can do if they’re arguing is to refrain from calling names or cursing at each other.

    My husband and I have had many arguments over the past 20 years, and as angry as we’ve been with each other, the show of respect of sticking to the argument without resorting to cursing, or name calling has saved a lot of unnecessary hurt and resentment.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
