How To Disagree With Your Spouse

How to Disagree with Your Spouse

If you never have a disagreement with your spouse, I applaud you! And I
want your autograph! Marriage is not an easy undertaking for anyone but
what truly important thing is? In the ward in which I grew up, the current
patriarch and his precious wife have an incredible marriage. This dear
sister has told others that she and her spouse have never had an
argument. She clarified that they had come close once but then they both
started laughing once they realized what was happening. I am far too much
of a live wire apparently. I don’t think that means they never had a
difference of opinion, I think it meant that they did not allow their tempers to
get involved.
How can we share our opinions and ideas without giving or taking offense?
First, try not to be offended if your spouse disagrees with you. Elder Bednar
recently said, “When we believe or say we have been offended, we usually
mean we feel insulted, mistreated, snubbed, or disrespected. And certainly
clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean-spirited things do occur in
our interactions with other people that would allow us to take offense.
However, it ultimately is impossible for another person to offend you or to
offend me. Indeed, believing that another person offended us is
fundamentally false. To be offended is a choice we make; it is not
a condition inflicted or imposed upon us by someone or something else.”1
We can choose to allow our hearts to remain open in order to understand
our spouse better.
Second, approach the topic when you are both in a good mood, rather than
reigniting embers of discord.
Third, talk about yourselves as a team, rather than pointing the finger at
your spouse and what you perceive that he or she does incorrectly. No
one wants to hear their name smeared for every wrongdoing in the
household.
Fourth, use soft or gentle language. Proverbs 15: 1 teaches,
“A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.”
Fifth, remember that your spouse is your friend. How would you treat a
friend who had a different opinion than you? Would you cross your arms
over your chest and blow out your breath then refuse to talk to your best

girlfriend? Would you slam the door on your way out if a friend asks you to
help him with something? Doubtful.
Our responses of frustration often times come from feelings of hurt,
mistrust, or disrespect in the relationship or from other circumstances
rather than after just one misspoken word. It is up to each one of us to
recognize how our own emotions and thoughts affect our behavior,
because they do indeed affect our relationship with our loved ones.
Not one of us is always right. We bring our differences to the marriage and
hope that we can find a way to make them enhance our relationships,
rather than allow them to pull us apart. We certainly can do that as we learn
how to communicate with each other and seek the companionship of the
Holy Ghost in all aspects of our relationship.

1 “And Nothing Shall Offend Them,” Elder David A. Bednar, General
Conference, October 2006

  • How I Recovered $43,000 Lost to Scammers: A Life-Saving Experience with Rapid Digital Recovery

    It’s devastating to lose a significant amount of money, especially when it’s your life savings. Recently, I was scammed out of $43,000, money that I had invested with what seemed like a trustworthy company. Initially, I was told I had a pending withdrawal, so I contacted their support as instructed. However, things quickly took a turn for the worse when they froze my account without offering any help, even after I provided all the information they asked for. I was left feeling helpless and devastated, as this was my future savings, the money I had worked so hard for. The weight of the situation became unbearable. The worry and stress took a toll on my mental health, and I began to feel as though there was no way out. I became so consumed by inner pain that I honestly didn’t know how to go on.

  • It’s heartbreaking how cruel people can be. I fell victim to a phishing email targeting my Binance account. The email seemed legitimate, claiming my account had a security issue. In a panic, I followed the steps and gave them my login details. Sadly, they wiped out my entire crypto portfolio $86k gone! I was devastated, but thankfully, I found a crypto recovery agent who managed to recover $67k by tracking the funds on the blockchain. They truly saved me.

  • I’m Dolores, a retired real estate developer from Essen, and now I dedicate my time to running a charity organization that supports underprivileged communities around the world. Back in 2017, I started investing in Bitcoin with the hope that it would grow into a financial resource to help expand our charity’s outreach. By 2024, my Bitcoin holdings had reached nearly $900,000—a life-changing amount that I had earmarked for future projects to uplift the lives of those in need.
    However, disaster struck during a trip to Europe. My phone, which stored all the crucial access to my Bitcoin wallet, was stolen. Panic set in when I realized that I couldn’t access my funds without it. I had taken security measures but hadn’t properly backed up my recovery codes. Despite trying every method I could think of, all attempts to recover my wallet failed, and the fear of losing all those funds set in. It wasn’t just my personal savings—it was the future of our charitable initiatives at risk.
    After weeks of stress and failed attempts, I felt like I was out of options. That’s when a fellow investor recommended DIGITAL RESOLUTION SERVICES. At first, I was skeptical. Could anyone really help recover such a substantial amount of Bitcoin without access to my original device? But with so much at stake, I decided to trust them and reached out.
    From the very first interaction, their team was professional and compassionate. They understood the gravity of the situation and walked me through every step of their recovery process. I appreciated how transparent and reassuring they were, making sure I was comfortable with their approach. To my astonishment, within just a few weeks, DIGITAL RESOLUTION SERVICES successfully regained access to my wallet, and all $900,000 was back in my hands.
    Words can’t describe the relief and gratitude I felt—not just for myself, but for the countless lives our charity could now continue to impact. DIGITAL RESOLUTION SERVICES didn’t just recover my Bitcoin, they restored hope for the future of our mission.
    If you’ve lost access to your Bitcoin, don’t give up. DIGITAL RESOLUTION SERVICES is nothing short of miraculous. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication are unmatched. They saved me from what could have been a financial disaster, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone facing similar challenges. They are lifesavers. CONTACT!
