so far from her side, seems like she is kinda ok now - definitely she won't forget but probably she has forgiven you enough to be civil with you and not totally give you the cold shoulder currently. Seems like now it's just your assumption from your side that she might not want to talk to you etc. when the signs are all showing otherwise ...
Ok, next question - conflict resolution. When both of you had conflicts or disagreement in the past, how did both of you handle and resolve it? Different people will have different ways to do it ...
my wife is the type that likes to talk openly and bring all out good and bad there and then when the issue happens, brings out all the past mistake ... I think many girls are like that ...
I'm not the like that though - when I'm in bad mood, I just don't want to talk ... I prefer to go away someplace quiet where I can calm down, collect my thoughts and come back to tackle the issue for another day, or just exercise and do some physical activities to take away all the stress ... which I think most men are like this
So which is her way of conflict resolution? Maybe all this while you are approaching this from your perspective, maybe she wanted to talk about it but not sure how you would handle it ...
The fact that her love language is quality time and words of affirmation - both requires you to communicate with her. And by keeping quiet and not talking to her, you are not engaging her love languages.
Give it shot - but please FIRST send her some flowers and write letters to her before you ask her if she is ready to talk about the issue.
You've got nothing to lose, the worst she could say is not ready and you just have to wait more ...
Thanks for your reply. Really appreciate it.
She's the kind that wanna talk about it yet will take her time to be quiet and cool down. We always manage to solve our quarrels on the day itself. Maybe not solve cause some of them are our differences we just can't help it but we manage to be happy on the same day and tolerate each other.
But like what you say of most girls, she actually remembers each quarrels and what is said whereas I can hardly remember the detail of each quarrel. But having said that, we don't have a lot of quarrels actually. Sometimes she can be very sensitive to certain issues and overthinks without telling me.
We actually talked about this incident in a very civil manner. I mean after crying and begging, we manage to have a talk about this. Basically she said let's build ourselves first and our relationship with God for now. Nobody know what will happen in the future. If it's God will we are meant to be together, then we are. From my side, I just wanna give her a few weeks maybe 2, to have her own space before trying to contact her again.
So you also suggest letters? What do you think should be the content.
