Has anyone ever...

Left their FH for a few days (if you live with them) b/c of arguments or other things just to clear their mind? If you did did it help?

FH and I have been living together for five years and neither of us has ever left for any amount of time - even after a huge fight.

my Mom gave me a wonderful piece of advice years ago...never go to bed angry.

two year ago, while i was traveling for work we got into a HUGE fight. i told him i would call him when i got home (which would've been two days later) b/c i needed time to think. he ended up calling me the next day and we worked it out. time away helps clear your head!!

Some may disagree but I think the only thing it accompishes is giving you room to think. In some cases that might be good. But I personally don't think it solves the problem in the 1st place. It just postpones a resolution a few days. IMO...Communication is key not space in resolving problems. HTH.

DH's mother always gave him this advice and he lives by it. He will NOT let me sleep until everything's resolved.

I am the same exact way. Going to sleep angry results in sleepless nights anyway. Why lay down on a problem when you can resolve it.

Re: Has anyone ever...

I know I'm in the minority but I have to get away. And I don't believe in the don't go to bed angry thing.
It just doesn't work for me. I have a pretty bad temper and when I get that mad I cant be around the person.
I'm sure it's not healthy but I do things and say things I regret in anger so it's best for me to get away from the situation and cool down.

That said I have never left FH overnight but I have stormed out the house and not come back for hours. Sometimes it's also easier for me to talk on the phone when I'm that mad.

I'm sure everything will be fine. There were times where I thought I wouldn't come back that night and even told him I needed space but he wont let it happen. He's usually like just please come home and talk it out. Or come home and go to bed, I wont bother you.
You can FM me if you don't want to say but maybe I can help. What happened?

I tried that for a couple days once but it just made me feel worse. I wound up going back home and talking things over, which is hard for me to do. I hope it all works out for you.

not really.. I like the way our schedule is set up though. Hes a fireman so works some nights during the week.. Its nice that way... we dont argue much but if we do its nice sometimes to have the night or day to think about things..

Is everything o.k.?

Yes I did for a week! It was the best thing I ever did for our relationship.

Excellent advise. Ephesians 4 vs. 26 says 'Do not let the sun go down while you're still angry'.
