Sometimes there comes a time when you argue w/ your other half. And sometimes you get so angry you can’t express your feelings. In my case I try to talk sometimes but if I get too frustrated I close myself off because I can’t even speak anymore. Other times I try to say what I am thinking but I get scared so I just stop and don’t say anything.

Why do we do this? Why is it so hard for us women and men to say what we feel? Are we afraid of what the other person might say? SOMETIMES, For me that is the case. I’m afraid to get into a bigger argument when I just want them to understand what I am feeling. But that doesn’t always work.

So I find it easier to express myself sometimes through email or letters or text. I know this shouldn’t be the solution but sometimes it’s the only way to get what I feel out in the open. It’s better to get it out one way than not at all. Right?!?

In my letter I try to really go into what I feel and take out all concerns but even in my letter sometimes I re-read it over to make sure I am not crossing the line or something. It is never my intention to hurt anyone with my words only for them to understand what I am feeling.

I found a website that talks about relationships and communication. And I truly believe that communication is the KEY to a healthy and long relationship. You can’t hold things inside because in the end you will only blow up, and that isn’t good for either one of you. This website tries to help MEN communicate better. Try it for you men who may have problems communicating with your girlfriend/wife/sister/mother etc. Click HERE.

Now even though this website indicates how to communicate more for men towards women, I think it’s good for women to read as well. Some of us women might be a little more like men then we think. Open up to your other half and tell them how you feel, but don’t attack them with these things just tell them that you only want them to know how you are feeling and what can “we” do to fix it.
