STOP ARGUING WITH THIS ONE SIMPLE SENTENCE
A Seattle couple has come up with a way to avoid arguments. Alexander James and his wife had their fair share of arguments over their 12 years together. Finally, his wife hit on something. They ask, “Do you want comfort or solutions?” James says that one sentence saves them from an argument 9 out of 10 times. Sometimes, one of them would come home and complain about office drama and was looking for another perspective, and other times they just wanted to complain. Ask the question, and you’re both at least on the same page at the start.
* Saying “Yes, dear,” a lot also works.
* SHE thinks of the idea, but HE’S the only one named in the story? Here comes another fight.
* Here’s a hint, guys: she NEVER wants solutions.
* So does handing the complainer a bottle of wine. That works, for a while, but then it stops working.
* Another sentence that stops arguments in their tracks: “You see this machete?”
* The good news is, now we’ll never need couples therapy or divorces ever again. Nice job, you two!
