Every time I get angry, I just forget the soft and gentle tone out the window. At that point expecting gentle tone when I feel my world is on fire doesn’t seem a validated requirement. I want to do better. But I fail every time. This video was very helpful. Most helpful I came across.
The "gentle startup" looks a lot like the four steps of non violent communication from Marshall Rosenberg - a way of communicating with others that changed myself and my relationships with others
I'm sorry to hear that Kiara. Relationship issues usually start with criticism and move on to contempt, defensiveness and stonewalling. I hope you find my other relationship videos useful: * Criticism: ua-cam.com/video/Jtu3AGiGhA0/v-deo.html * Contempt: ua-cam.com/video/xtJPKFtXHPk/v-deo.html * Defensiveness: ua-cam.com/video/5bJLMiEahZo/v-deo.html * Stonewalling: ua-cam.com/video/U_43aXFt5AU/v-deo.html Let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Teresa

I've tried this but have a partner who doesn't respond positively to soft start ups, olive branches or "I" statements. Very frustrating.
