There is next to nothing that you and Jason don’t fight about. You left the coffee mug on the coffee table? He’ll fight you on it. The bathroom was left a mess by one of you? There’ll be a fight about it. He forgets to pick up groceries? There’ll be a fight about it.

And today, you had enough. These never-ending fights had always left you emotionally drained. The fact that Jason didn’t like admitting his wrongs or apologising or conversing without fighting was taking a toll on your mental health. So when he comes home one day, you confront him. “We need to talk Jason” you say to him as he walks into a kitchen.
