Ever have a fight where you knew you were both just cranky?
We all do it. You haven't slept, you're on edge, and then BOOM - a fight erupts over something seemingly insignificant.
The truth is, sometimes the fight isn't even the real issue. It's the subtext. We get so caught up in "winning" the argument that we ignore the underlying tension, like being tired or stressed.
There's a part of us that knows this, that glimpses the bigger picture. But then ego takes over, and we fall back into the fight. Ugh.
Anyone else struggle with this? How do you break the cycle and address the real issue?
