#8 Acknowledge the tension
When there is tension after a fight, it is hard to tell whether the other person is feeling as awkward as you are or whether they are still annoyed. And they are probably wondering the exact same thing!
Let them know that you aren’t annoyed, and most importantly, let your partner know just how much you hate the tension and the silence after a fight. More often than not, they will be relieved that you’re feeling the same way. Once you’ve both acknowledged that the fight is over, you can both make a decision to move on.
The most important thing here is to always remember the consequences of fighting. Remind yourself how raw you usually feel after a fight and the tension that is likely to follow, before the argument gets underway. This is often enough to make you take steps to prevent the argument before both of you get carried away, or at least, it will motivate you to resolve the disagreement quickly and move on without a period of post-argument tension.
Happiness in your relationship should always take priority, so don’t waste your time by dragging an argument on longer than necessary. It is almost never worth it!
So the next time you see red when you’re talking to your partner, just remember these 8 ways to avoid the silence and the awkward tension after an argument. Over time, subconsciously, the fights will reduce. And the love will grow!
