Arguing Advice
In almost all relationships there are arguments.
With relationship problems it is more likely for the female to bring up the problems, and for the male to become silent, and avoid confrontation.
The advice to the guy is not to sidestep the conflict. The female brings it up because she values the relationship. At least hear her out, acknowledge her thoughts and try to understand her feelings.
The advice to the female is DON'T attack the guy verbally. Complain about the problem, but do not attack his character.
