Problem: Article: It's a natural part of human relationships, and it doesn't have to be destructive. If you can learn to fight constructively, conflict can even strengthen a relationship. As hard as it can be to stay level-headed when emotions are high, remember that how you react will determine whether the disagreement will help or hurt the relationship. Call a time-out for a mutually agreed-upon amount of time and come back together when you've had time to calm down.
