Healthy and meaningful relationships are much needed for a happy and fulfilling life. Of course, perfect relationships do not exist. Conflict arises in every relationship, be it between siblings, parents and children or between couples. Conflict situation, however, differs from one relationship to the other. But any conflict can be resolved.

According to studies, some men tend to show more aggression than women and some women are more in control and are patient even in the face of serious levels of threats and intimidation in a relationship.

However, men are more likely to run away from conflicts and tend to move on quickly after disagreements. But avoiding conflict may not help a situation. It may widen the distance in a relationship.

Hence, if both partners run away from a conflict situation, problems between them will remain unresolved. It will result in frustration and disappointment.

To strengthen a relationship, it is advisable for both parties to talk it out and try to resolve even the smallest of issues between them than ignoring it for it to later build up and escalate the tension. Both have the responsibility to sort things out in an amicable manner as matured adults.

Making amends is the noblest thing to do in this world. Angry words can never stop a fight. Always try to end bad feelings. Few tips may help ease any tension or resolve conflict in a relationship.
