I can't handle arguments!
If my boyfriend and I have a heated discussion, and I hear his booming voice starting to grow, the first thing I do is look for the exit and RUN.
I go to great lengths to avoid arguing, and sometimes walk on eggshells or just agree with him. I have even lied about petty things to prevent arguments.
When he is angry, he doesn't know when to call it a day. He goes on and on, even when I'm visibly upset, he still continues to chastise. I've spoken to him about this, but it hasn't changed anything.
I obviously need to toughen up a bit, any suggestions? Also, how can I stop him from yelling? I've tried just about every trick in the book, any suggestions there would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
