ORIGINAL: Justagrrl do i have the right to say this offends me i dont want this .... How do You respond without getting angry or upset.. Of course. Thats why I suggest checklists and communication. A checklist gives a guide as to what you have done, have not done, like, don't like, etc. Its a tool, just like anything else. Their are things that MJ likes, that I am not fond of, we have talked about them, and 'explained' our positions and definitions of those things, then made decisions based on that information. Nothing wrong with getting angry or upset, those are natural responses. Its how you react or act is what changes things. One of my all time favorite lines from a tv show was "Act, don't react." It was from Xena the Warrior Princess {yes, I can admit to watching it..I LOVED it} Be respectfull and honest when you talk with your partner, how you act will set the mood and tone.
