You can’t leave; where will you go?

Before living with your partner, if you got into an argument, you could just take time apart. You could take an entire week apart if you wanted to. You had your own home to retreat to. But that simply won’t be the case once you share a roof. You’ll need to learn to resolve disputes in a mature and timely manner if you don’t want that tension in your living space for days on end. There is nowhere to go after all (unless a friend will take you in, but you can’t play that card too often). That’s why Matthews says one good thing couples can take from living together is, “You will also learn to work through fights without leaving.”
