Emotional Arguments and Explosions
I’ve been working with a lot of couples over the years. One of the most common conce s they bring up are arguments that get too aggressive. Spouses end up getting emotionally hurt, upset and angry. While conflicts are a given in relationships, you can dramatically improve how you argue and significantly decrease the emotional damage you are doing to the relationship. When a conflict is beginning, we tend to think that we know what we are talking about and the other person is wrong.

Emotional Wounds: The Stack of Hurts and Resentments in her Mind
Men and women are different in how they process and store emotions. There are always exceptions to this rule, but I’m about to describe how the majority of men and women deal with hurt and resentment. Both genders feel hurt and resentment, and both can certainly hold on to resentment a long time. But men have a slight tendency to throw off resentment and hurt on their own --women tend to need someone to talk to throw off the hurt and resentment. The best person for them to talk to is the person that caused the hurt and resentment.

How to get started
Men and women have many things in common, but there are many things that are dramatically different in how they see the world. It is these differences that cause much of the problems in marriages. Without understanding these very different ways of experiencing reality, conflicts, upset and emotional distance can undermine your relationsnip and keep you from getting close to the one you love.
