Contradictions

It is never an easy business to be with someone that push (all) your buttons.

I, however, have learnt over time that liberal contradictions can be extremely beneficial for personal growth and relationship growth, as long as you care about and respect the person whom you interact with enough.

Because of the relationship, there is no such easy way out, hence, we need to look into alternatives, such as:

  1. Try to understand different points of view
  2. Champion the other person as always, despite disputes
  3. Question, analyse and/or reinforce our own beliefs
  4. Compromise
  5. Evaluate/Re-evaluate the relationship

As pleasant as it sounds, a “Yes” “Yes” attitude may not make partners better people.
