About This Quote

In a romantic relationship, it is normal to argue from time to time. In fact, you must argue from time to time if you want to keep your relationship strong. However, it can get ugly when you argue with someone who has a defensive personality. They will either get prepared to fight you or ready to run away from you.

If they are ready to fight, don’t let them. Lasting fights will only make the other person feel unsafe and leave them feeling defenseless. If they are ready to run away, also don’t let them.

You want that person in your life and if they can’t stand being with you when you are upset because of arguments, then it is better to just leave them behind and focus on keeping your relationship healthy.
