4 hours since we have spoken

Well as the title says it's been four hours since myself and dh have spoken to each other after a massive argument.

What a lovely day this is turning out to be and as we are getting a ten hour ferry tonight and have at least a five hour drive tomorrow things really couldn't be much better.

Just needn't a bit of a rant really.

Lif is too short for sulking, you both need to apologise and go back to being grown ups.

Well, why don't you speak to him then? It takes two to make an argument, and two to make up from one. Be the better person here and start speaking. Even if its just to say, look we need to move on and deal with practicalities, and come back to the issue another time.

It's always easier said then done though isn't it. I wouldn't even say it's sulking more anger than anything.

I think we just needed to leave it a bit before we spoke so we don't say anything more that we can regret. We have the same argument every holiday and it's getting rather tiresome.

If this is not a new argument, how come it's never been satisfactorily resolved before now.

Is it about going to family for the hols?

I used to do this with DH before we left for the ferry. Once I sat in the car waiting and waiting and waiting for him to leave the house after I had packed up everything and the DC and he was still dicking about on the computer. I remember screaming "If you don't come now I will divorce you!".
Well ten years later I am...

What are you arguing about?

If it's the same argument, maybe you need to find a time to talk about the issues when it is not holiday time, and try to agree a compromise, or a set of ground-rules which will let you each feel you've got some of what you want?
