Whether you have been married fifty years or five months, you and your spouse have a history. And, undoubtedly, somewhere in that history lurk instances of insensitivity on the part of your mate. Perhaps they spoke harsh words in an angry moment or acted less than loving at a time when you needed love the most.
Often, couples haul in the heavy artillery of past grievances when they enter a fresh battlefield. Such tactics only add fuel to the fight and never aid in the peacekeeping effort. So before your next conflict, make an agreement with your mate. Agree never to insert past issues into today's conflicts. Stay in the present tense when you face marital discord.
Don't keep a list of "wrongs remembered."
