Do you avoid conflict to keep the peace?
It seems harmless at first…
You let something slide because you don’t want to start a fight, or you stay quiet to “protect” your relationship.
In those moments, avoiding conflict feels like the right choice.
Why rock the boat, right?
But here’s what actually happens…
The issue doesn’t get resolved :-(
And you feel a little less connected to your partner.
You see, every time you avoid bringing up an issue, it’s like putting another brick in the invisible wall between you and your partner.
I completely understand why you might think you’re protecting your relationship by doing it.
But that wall is blocking the very intimacy your relationship needs to thrive.
So if you continue to avoid conflict to keep the peace, you’ll end up less connected because nothing gets resolved.
And it you keep avoiding it then that emotional distance will quietly grow….
Romantic feelings then begin to fade...
And soon, you avoid even more, because you don’t feel in love anymore.
Avoiding conflict is basically a silent relationship killer.
But know this…
The very thing you’re avoiding is the exact doorway back into closeness.
