185. Ask Dr. Abby: How to Discuss Relationship Problems with Your Partner Without it Turning into a Fight
About this episode
You’ve got some issue(s) with your partner -- some things they’re doing that are driving you crazy or maybe it’s some things they’re not doing that have gotten under your skin. But every time you try to speak to them about your relationship problems, you’re met with anger and defensiveness and it turns into a fight, so you never feel like you get any resolution! In this special Ask Dr. Abby episode of the podcast, I’m going to share some tips to help you get out of the fighting rut and find some connection and understanding.
