Pressure. Life is full of pressure.

Sometimes when you explain it’s not a good time, or you say “can we discuss something later”, it can trigger:
This can escalate and we need to cool down.
There is no “I” in team, so yes at times we need to get things done but I do find with significant others it’s not always a good time. Sometimes we need to realize that if they are not with us, they will go against us. So weigh your options
carefully. I’m occasionally guilty of not choosing the right time for what I’m doing versus when “they” want to have a conversation.
Everything has a time and a place. Including apologizing when you may be right, but so is the other person. That’s when these come in handy.
But before you need those flowers, just weigh the potential hazard ahead. Sometimes this requires some forward thinking.
