Why have different opinions?
It's perfectly normal to have different opinions in a relationship. His name is also two heads into one, so it's not easy, in the end there are often different opinions and different mindsets.
This is not a big problem, as long as we and our partner can respect each other's opinions. This does not mean that it is always a sign of 'not suitable', in fact differences can make us complement each other.
Wife and husband have also had different opinions, the important thing is how we react to it. Come on, see tips for dealing with differences of opinion with your partner.
-Starting from empathy
When you express your opinion, you really want to be directly approved by your partner, but the reality is often different. We understand first by putting ourselves in the position of a partner.
For example, on weekends we want to go for a walk but our partner prefers to lie down. It's annoying, but try to remember again, this week there is so much work in the office that you like to stay up late, so it's better to take a break on the weekend.
-We and the couple on the same team
Difference of opinion doesn't mean we and our partner are enemies, right? Everything can be overcome together first find a middle way.
Resolve problems or differences by finding solutions together. Have a good talk with your partner, what you and your partner want, then find a solution that solves the problem.
-Give constructive criticism
It's okay to give criticism and input to your partner, as long as it's conveyed properly. It's better to avoid giving criticism while angry, yes, your partner can become sad and offended.
Remember, the purpose of giving criticism is to solve problems, not blame. Especially if the criticism gets out of context, instead of getting a solution but instead causing a commotion.
-We and our partner love each other
Differences of opinion are normal, not a separation between the two of us, or maybe a space for growth in the relationship. After all, if we and our partner have the same opinion, it won't be fun, right?
In fact, differences make us and our partners know each other better and of course complement each other. Being different does not mean separating, but 'enriching' the relationship with your partner. Understand your partner, put yourself in the best possible place and remain patient and calm when disagreements arise.
