What Are Soft Spots and What Can We Do About Them?

Everything is going well in the relationship so far. Then, boom. We hit one of them. We don't understand why they're there, and can't seem to get why our partner is acting that way! It's likely we just hit a soft-spot. Next, we resort to putting gas on the fire to make it all blow up in our faces. But it doesn't have to be this way. Soft spots are something we all share, they make us human. Working to understand them in ourselves and in our partner will help feel better together. By changing our perspective and coming to our partner from a place of curiosity instead of righteousness, conflict can turn from a burdensome experience to an opportunity for understanding and connection.
