How To Deal With A Stubborn Partner? by dsgirl: 5:02am On Dec 17, 2010 |
I really want to know how to deal with an unreasonably stubborn partner who is always bent on having his own desires fulfilled. Always thinking that whatever decision he makes is the right one and most annoyingly if you correct him he turn the whole discussion to blame you, and still does the same thing over and over again. I really want to know the best way to handle such an irrational person. |

Avoid argueing unnecesarily with him. Avoid exchanging words because that would aggravate the situation. Let your suggestions go like these; in a subtle manner and low tone, after serving him his best dish and when he is relaxed, Honey dont you think that if you do it like this we can achieve a better result? am your partner and Iam here to compliment you. Never use abusive language on him because that will give him an advantage to ignore you further and see you as emotionally unstable and therefore no useful advice can come from you. Even when he makes a mistake by not following your advice, dont castigate him harshly. If you continue to treat him with respect despite his shortfallings, with time he will come to adore your suggestions and respect you better as a partner in progress. Always go to God in prayer and seek his divine mercy upon him and you. Goodluck not jonathan oo! ![]() ![]() 2 Likes |

all y'all that's asking the op to ignore, act silly, act foolish, can u do such? u guys are ignoring the fact that the person she's talking abt is her partner not an admirer or a friend. she is seeking for advice that will aid her relationship and u are giving options for break-up. na wa oooo @op, yeah we guys can be bull-headed and hell-bent on having our way but ut doesnt mean we are silly or irrational. we listen and can be considerate too. i will advise u sit him down and bare your mind and make him realise he's making u unhappy and if he doesnt change, u might have to go your seperate ways. u will be suprised the kind of wonders dialogue perform in relationships. all d best dear. 1 Like |

I really want to know the best way to handle such an irrational person. As long as the partner does not make decisions that would jeopardize the emotional/physical/psychological/financial/spiritual health of my family, she is free to indulge in her ways till she learns herself. No need to nag. Just like as with a child, you can only offer advice, love and support when the 'excreta' hits the fan. Whatever you do, do NOT say "I told you so". Just get in your car, drive down the road and have a good laugh on your own. Then come back home and pretend that nothing happened. Even if she brings it up. . .and says honey, you warned me. Do NOT fall for that, it is a trap. ![]() Works all the time. ![]() |
Re: How To Deal With A Stubborn Partner? by kokoye(m): 3:55pm On Dec 17, 2010 |
are you married? hope not yet. if not, quit the relationship or deal with it like some other reasonable posters have suggested. Ignore him and talk sense into his head when he's in a good mood. |
Re: How To Deal With A Stubborn Partner? by leuelliot(m): 4:07pm On Dec 17, 2010 |
keep Praying to your God, and hope that one day he changes. |

At poster, you sound stubborn too. I'm married, and my wife thinks I'm stubborn, but that's not true, when there's a major decision to be made, I bring to the family table, she contributes in the bossiest way I've ever known, she alwys want to have it her way, when I ask her to put her reasons on the table and let's weigh it with mine, it becomes another issue. To be brief, how do u correct ur partner, have u tried not arguing with him at all on some matters, do you give him the respect that's due to him, besides, u don't know what's going through his mind.

Re: How To Deal With A Stubborn Partner? by dsgirl: 6:09pm On Dec 17, 2010 |
dami_paul: I have tried many options, i have talked to him gently, fought with him, laughed with him, argued with him, every way i know best. he is the best person for a while, then he starts misbehaving after 2-3days. We laugh for 2days fight or argue on silly issues for 5days, all because of his ego. he thinks i'm the stubborn one, but i think he is being childish n selfish most of the times. He comes up with unnecessary things just to argue,and he argues over every little thing. i have talked to him like a thousand time, but its not helping matters, that's why i seek help here, maybe there is something new i can try that'll work. |

if you love him so much, just be long suffering and endure it. people usually mellow with age. if you dont love him, keep it moving |

@dsgirl, have u self-examined yourself to know if maybe you are the one who is unreasonably stubborn, Maybe because he doesn't allow you have your way, you think he is stubborn. Please look inwards, search yourself too, |

bigtalla: i know i am stubborn, but not "unreasonably stubborn". I understand the fact that everybody has a right to his own thoughts and how he does his things, but in this case, he does not listen when you correct him. He believe that has a man, he should be the one in charge and the one giving all the directions and he should not be questioned. what do you say to that? |
