      <description>Obviously, you have a Significant Other.

But if you didn't (or find yourself without one)  I'd like to apply for the position!

Let me explain.  I thought of--and suggested--this EXACT concept to MY (ex)Significant Other many months ago!

The only variation was:   I suggested our 'repetitions' be labelled 1a, 2m, etc., to remove the labeling inherent with arguments. Then, instead of him rehashing, "You NEED to come to BED at a REASONABLE time"  and me responding, "Just a minute, hon!  I'm almost done!"  we could just abbreviate it 1B(t)  for 1 bedtime.  
Rather than me screaming, "You spent two hours on the phone with a nasty creature missing teeth who drove a towtruck and currently offers hundred dollar specials the NIGHT BEFORE we started dating, and you called her AGAIN three weeks later and talked for fourteen minutes!" we could just say, "HO (2)(17)!"  "Well, HO(2)(17) to you, too!"

P.S.  I pawned my Corvette so we could attend a two-day 'relationship seminar" about "establishing dialogue" and he never even looked at the workbook we were supposed to finish at home.  Hey, there was another repetition--I'll call it W(900) instead of "You made me waste nine hundred bucks, you lazy loser!"</description>

      <description>These are all really interesting points!

As a relationship expert (www.ChoiceRelationships.com), I would like to add that couples need to know that conflicts are bound to happen.  But here's the good news:  there are skills they can learn so that they can handle them better.  When they do, their partnerships fare much better.  I offer a free teleseminar, "The 7 Tools to Manage Conflict Communication in Your Relationship."  To hear it, go to: http://choicerelationships.com/teleseminar_resources.</description>

      <description>I'm not so sure your solution would work in any environment I'm a part of, because I don't see the repetitiveness. But it sounds great for that, and I'll watch for it. Perhaps I'm just missing it.

But I think your point about the time spent arguing is really pretty central. The most annoying thing about fights are they're inefficient communication. Often they START from inefficient communication, and often they become  ABOUT inefficient communication, and they ALWAYS RESULT in a big waste of time, due to inefficient communication. And the results -- well, what can you expect from inefficient communication? Hurt feelings, on a good day.

Making them go faster reduces the amount of bad communication -- including the risk of outright blunders.

A long, drawn-out fair fight is no good at all. But a short, "I always win, you always lose" thing isn't a panacea, either. It may work in the military -- sometimes. In the home seldom, not even as parent/kid.

Because it's not communication at all, really, and the underlying communication didn't happen.

Your plan works, because it IS efficient communication, because you were able to to do the ground work in advance. Brilliant idea -- but in my world, I think I need a plan for de novo arguments a lot more. (I could be wrong!)

BTW -- I don't see any reason to limit your plan to relationship conflict. I wish we could apply it to politics.</description>

      <description>Yeah, sure, Stever.  Don't you know that my boyfriend is really stupid and that he doesn't listen?  So you think I can make him look at a sheet?  He'll tear it up, throw it in the air like confetti and then we'll fight about how disrespectful that was and how he doesn't care!  Hehehe...
(Your tip is great for people with self control and some intelligence.)</description>
