The Fastest Way To Destroy Any Relationship

<p>&ldquo;<em>You should have done that earlier</em>&rdquo;, &ldquo;<em>Why did you do that?</em>&rdquo;, &ldquo;<em>If you hadn&rsquo;t done that, this wouldn&rsquo;t have happened</em>&rdquo; Words, sentences are just so easy to utter.</p> <p>One breath is all it takes. The bad thing about this is once our words leave our mouths, there are no taking it back, and in the heat of an argument, most of the times, our mouths run faster than our brains.</p> <p>I learned this lesson when I was quite young.</p> <p>First comes the catastrophe. Late to a special important occasion, mistakes that shouldn&rsquo;t have happened in the first place, forgetting something crucial. It wasn&rsquo;t exactly &ldquo;<em>it&rsquo;s your fault</em>&rdquo; but the message was clear: &ldquo;<em>if you hadn&rsquo;t done that, this wouldn&rsquo;t have happened</em>&rdquo;.</p> <p>I learned to hold my tongue early on in my relationship.</p> <p>I never understood.</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>What is the point of assigning blame?</strong></p> </blockquote> <h2>It&rsquo;s not you against your loved ones.</h2> <p>I observe this quite often in couples. Long sigh, eye roll, and then the sentence, &ldquo;<em>You didn&rsquo;t do it?</em>&rdquo; Then comes the defense from the other side, &ldquo;<em>I thought you&rsquo;re gonna do it so I didn&rsquo;t,</em>&rdquo; and it&rsquo;s pretty easy to imagine how things are going to proceed from this point onwards. Arguments, fights, ensue.</p> <p>And it&rsquo;s amazing how we as humans repeat the same awful cycle over and over again.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/blueinsight/the-fastest-way-to-destroy-any-relationship-7e3b2d814b3b"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
