Anger is a natural part of life. It’s an emotion we all experience and it can be healthy to express anger in a safe way. However, when anger becomes out of control or is expressed in unhealthy ways it can cause conflict and lead to breakups or divorce.
How can you maintain your emotional health in a relationship?
You may be asking yourself this question because:
