You have learned the importance of recognizing your emotional triggers and finding healthy ways to manage these during a “timeout.” But who is supposed to initiate the conversation after the time out?

The argument is getting heated and you realize you are getting nowhere! What do you do?
Allow the conversation to spiral out of control, get worked up, and risk saying things that will be hard to repair? OR do you recognize that this is happening, and you allow yourself to take a timeout? What does it mean to manage your behavioral and emotional response when you are upset?
And how do these emotional and behavioral responses impact a relationship and your perception about your relationship? Arguments and disagreements are a normal part of all relationships! But what separates a healthy relationship from an unhealthy relationship, is how the couple handles the argument and how each partner responds when he or she are angry.
