Awkward Post-argument Scenarios

awkward post-argument scenarios

 pacing around while debating whether or not you should text them after they’ve left the house for a bit 

 forgetting about the argument after a while and going in for a hug, kiss, or any other form of affection that is a force of habit

 needing to go to an event after a party and having to pretend as if they aren’t angry with one another the entire time 

 “i don’t want to go to bed angry…can we please talk about this?” 

 catching the other one crying shortly after and immediately feeling an overwhelming wave of guilt crash onto you.

 “hey…uh, the dinner’s here…” 

  painful silence hanging over the room when both of you want to start talking things out but are just waiting for the other to speak first 

 when one tries to pretend like the argument didn’t even happen after a few hours, which could either anger the other more or cause them to brush it off all the same 

 “…you still mad?”

 feeling guilty so you perform an act of kindness (ex: making them their fave food) as an indirect apology 

 ranting to friends or a relative about the other, only for them to agree and call you out on your wrongdoings

 “i didn’t kick you out. all i said was that i needed some space…” 

  texting them because you feel a little too embarrassed/nervous to see them face-to-face again 

 trying to apologize but only sparking up another argument
