Had a hectic day at work and ended up taking out all the frustration on your partner? Or did you fight him about the last time he cancelled on you? Don’t fret–that’s most of us. Knowingly or unknowingly, we tend to vent it out all to that person we know would stay calm and listen. However, sometimes this can backfire and things turn ugly.
Well, we got your back. Here are some adorable ways you can make it up to him. Now without any further delay just scroll down!
1. First thing first, apologise
Start with an apology. It may sound very basic, but a simple and genuine ‘I am sorry’, can solve some of the biggest fights too. At times, we don’t realise how harsh our words and actions are and how hurtful they can be for your partner. That’s when a real apology can fix everything. Let go your ego, and just say you’re sorry!
2. Have a healthy talk
A lot of fights happen due to lack of communication, which leads to further misunderstandings in ways more than you can imagine. It keeps piling on and on. Don’t stretch it to days and months. If you do that, you’ll lose your peace of mind. Sit him down, take some time out from your busy schedules, sip some chai, and just talk it out. Don’t hold on to it, just let it go! Make sure, it’s a healthy discussion where there’s no room for ego, screaming, and blame games. Else it will lead to yet another ugly fight–which is the quite opposite of what we want.
3. Whip up his fave dish
No! We aren’t asking you to be a Master Chef. Nobody is expecting you to be a pro cook. But yes, good food can solve anything and everything. How you ask? Good food helps in calming you down, and uplifts the mood. Foodies out there will relate a whole lot to this technique. You know his fave dish? Try cooking it yourself. He will certainly appreciate your gesture and efforts– and his gussa will vanish. Good food is magic, y’all!
4. Plan a date night
If you thought only women love surprises, then you’re wrong! Men love it as much. Surprise him with a cozy little date night planned by you. Get his favourite wine, some starters, and deck up a cozy little corner of your house. You may plan it at a restaurant, but with so many people around it can be a little difficult to converse. Talk about all the good memories you two have, and tell him what he means to you and how much you love him. He’ll love it, we bet!
5. Plan a getaway, maybe?
Your busy schedules play a major role in not letting you have some ‘we’ time with your better half. As a result, it makes the arguments and fights even worse, because when you’re spending that much time apart–frustration can get the better of you. In that case, make the most of your weekends and plan a getaway. Away from the hustle and bustle of your daily lives, with just the two of you around will help you learn and understand the problems better and fix them. Often, not getting time with each other gives rise to many frustrations which then turn into big fights.
6. Make-up sex?
Make-up sex is important because it gets reduces the adrenaline levels in the body, and calms the nerves. Channel your anger into sexual activities–because, come on, it’s damn fun. It also relieves stress, and you’ll know the spark is still there. We don’t realise it, but often the lack of intimacy is a major cause for frustration. Also it makes for the best sex because you are already intense. It acts as a vent for anger as well. So why not?!
