Childish or not childish? I also dont know
Hi Huay Mei, if both of you are short fused, it is important to build a good channel of communication for conflict management. Some suggestions that could help.
1) walk away when needed. When you see your partner is losing it and you cannot respond positively as well. Avoid confrontation to minimize hurting each other with words you will both regret after.
2) If its too difficult to talk about, write a letter or email. Take time to draft it, to voice your thoughts, don't send it out immediately. Take time to reread it.... Take a break or nap if necessary, reread it again when you are feeling better. If its still what you wanted to tell him, send it.
3) Remind yourself, pride is not bigger priority than the person you truly love and want to be with. Both parties should always remember that.
Personally, I try not to go to bed with fights unresolved.
Mostly, taking the initative to show concern to my spouse. Apologizing even if I don't agree. Simply because I value US more than pride. I often tell her that we do not agree but it doesn't change my love for her. That remains my priority. Its assuring to her and it serve as a reminder to myself.
4) It is important to not leave issues under the carpet. When you guys calmed down, it is important to align and arrive at the right understanding moving forward. It is OK and normal that we can react childishly at times. It is normal. What is the most impt is whether both of you are still committed to the relationship. Commitment would mean open to feedback, and reflect. Acting in the best interest of our spouses.
Many people expect some level of maturity from our partners but we are all young and naive once. The expectation is sometimes contradicting, especially if couples did not have enough dating history in serious relationships. Learning to grow together is a journey, a path. No one is already at the end of the walk. Maturity and understanding each other comes with years of experience together. There is no other way.
Just my sharing,
