Most conflicts follow some variation of this Conflict Resolution Curve:
🆕 Inception - The moment a conflict is registered
🌶️ Getting Hot - The in-between space
💣 Big Bang - The climactic moment of the conflict
🧊 Cool Down - The period after our conflict reaches a “resolution”
🆕 New Normal - How life will be after this conflict
BUT WAIT!! There’s one step that we often miss after a New Normal has been established.
🪡 Relationship Repair - Building goodwill back into the relationship
Every relationship has conflict. And if you say that you and your partner are an amazing team and NEVER argue, who are you kidding. It's probably that you're not looking properly or maybe just ignore the emotions that arise in a conflict. What often tends to happen is that once a conflict has been resolved, people “move on” with their lives but rarely do we go back and look into repairing any damage that the conflict might have created.
