Does anyone else do this?

When I feel myself about to cop an attitude, I remove myself from the situation until I’m ready to talk about it.

Like tonight, I spent an hour angry-cleaning the house and still sat by myself for another 15-20 minutes until I was ready to talk to my husband about how what he did bothered me.

A lot of people are shocked when I tell them I don’t yell at my husband, and vice versa.

Why don’t we yell at each other?

Because we know that we can wait it out until we’ve calmed down. Then we can talk about it.
