you promised each other that you wouldnt let the sun go down on your fights and come what may youd kiss and make up before the night was out whatever happened to that pact now after a fight you both occupy two ends of the bed both unwilling to make the first move to patch up come on why carry your spat into the next day we give you 10 tips on how to resolve a spat and get into the kissand makeup mode1 one of you has to make the first move keep a track of who made the last first move and automatically know that in your current fight its the turn of the other to initiate the peace move2 if the showdown the two of youve had is over something trivial then see if you can lighten up things by laughing out loud over how silly the two of you have been nothing like a hysterical uninhibited laughter to defuse the situation3 if the fights been over something major like finances or bringing up the child then figure out in your head as to why it turned out to be a slangfest if you lost it because hes run through the months budget in less than 10 days or shes been tightfisted get real spell out your penalties and get done with it 4 if hes been too busy watching cricket and not paid you much attention and that led to a fullfledged war then hide the remote but assist him wholeheartedly in looking for it hell wonder what has come over you but instead of cricket hed want to score with you5 you both have had a field day calling each other names and biting each others heads off how about saying even stevens and go back to ground zero6 notalking mode is disruptive and going into the long night without resolving your differences will give you both a fitful sleep so do an iou and keep the next instalment of the fight for the next day for now cuddle up and snuggle up 7 write off sorry notes you can pour out more venom and breathe more fire into it but say sorry at the end and seal it with a kiss before handing it over to your spouse8 a night cap for the two can do wonders you can fix your drinks on your own if you dont want to do it for the other a few swigs and the alcohol will make you wonder what on earth you were fighting like cats and dogs9 if none of the above works then sleep on two extreme ends but inch away closer during the night the rest need we say more 10 the fights been all verbal time you got physical talk of taking it to the next level make love not war can be your peace or truce cry
