Today I learned a lesson.  I learned to stop.  Just to stop, breathe, and pray.  Many times we get into a huge argument with a loved one and we just continue to fight.  Have you ever gotten into a fight with someone and you believe that it is 100% not your fault?  I know I’ve had a couple in my day.

You get into an argument with someone and they make you feel like absolutely nothing, so small, so hurt that your chest hurts, like your heart is broken.  You feel the tears coming.  That’s when you need to stop. You should never let someone hurt you so bad that you feel that way.  You should stop and just pray.  God will give you strength.  You just have to try it.  That person will stop antagonizing you.  The will stop talking.  They may just walk away and leave.

One bit of relationship advice I must give you is that you should try to set yourself back before you continue to get hurt.  What I mean with that is that you shouldn’t keep going deeper into a fight that you don’t even have the answer to.  Every time I’ve kept fighting, I end up saying things I don’t mean and then I’m the one who’s mostly hurt.  Men tend to be different.  They say things without thinking and then they act as if they don’t care.  This is just their defense mechanism.

Before it gets to that point, just learn to back of and just stop.  If you give yourself and the other person some time to cool off, it will blow over and then you might just be able to talk.  Make yourself busy.  Pray. Go work out.  Clean something.  Organize something that has been bothering you.  Read a book.  Paint your nails. Anything to make yourself stop.
