Sort:  

Bad - "Dammit, how come you are always late!"
Good - "Darling you are always on time. What happen today?"

Always think one more time before you talk to your partner, or anyone. You don't always have to be the one that is "right".

Take a step backwards and get some perspective before you say things without thinking. Do you have to win this argument, what will it benefit. Does this issue really need to be discussed right this moment?

Give your partner the comfort and support he/she may need instead of being self centered.
