About "The Referee"

The single most important thing you can easily do to become more skilled with relationship conflict, even if you haven’t been good at conflict before, is to appreciate and understand your preferred Communication Style.

Based on your answers, as a "Referee", what's important is...

How to respond when your partner is having a "good day," but you know the it's only a matter of time before things fall apart when something goes wrong for him
How to get more skilled with relationship conflict, even if you’ve never been good at it before
How to address double standards, (like when he does something while driving you can't say anything, but if YOU do it, he's all over it)

Figuring out the dating puzzle, especially relating to a new person, being flexible, and establishing commitment (if you're single)
How to stop getting irritated with one another over seemingly silly things
And much, much more...

Does That Seem To Fit? You're Not Alone.
