You know those certain conflicts between you and your guy that just keep recurring, until you're about ready to go psycho on him? Well, we came up with a more logical strategy for finding common ground: Compromise. Here are 12 common relationship conflicts that can be solved in a jiffy.
1. Scoring More Booty Without Losing Sleep
Conflict: He's a night owl. You turn in early.
Resolution: Make happy hour sex an after-work, pre-dinner ritual.
2. Making Hook-Ups Hotter
Conflict: He digs doggie-style. You prefer positions that feel more connected.
Resolution: Lie facedown with him lying on top of you. Voila--intimate doggie-style.
3. Meshing Your Post-Sex Preferences
Conflict: He passes out after sex. You want to cuddle.
Resolution: Have him spoon you as he drifts off.
4. Solving The Toilet-Seat Feud
Conflict: He leaves the seat up. You don't like hitting cold porcelain at midnight.
Resolution: A padded seat cover--it makes it virtually impossible for the seat to stay up.
5. Helping Him Get Along With Your BFF
Conflict: He is low-key. Your best bud is usually high-strung.
Resolution: Channel her nervous energy and his video-game obsession into a Wii punch-out match.
6. Whipping Up A Late-Night Snack
Conflict: He craves pizza. You're into health food.
Resolution: Make your own whole-wheat pizza that's light on cheese and heavy on gourmet toppings.
7. Having Happier Meals
Conflict: He scarfs down dinner. You eat slowly.
Resolution: Order pancit and dimsum, then use chopsticks.
8. Syncing Your Communication Styles
Conflict: He's a texter. You're a caller.
Resolution: Facebook chat. It has the back-and-forth of a phone call, but you're still typing.
9. Fixing Money Discrepancies
Conflict: He has a penchant for pricey restaurants and bars. You have a much tighter budget.
Resolution: He pays when he wants to go somewhere out of your range.
10. Finding The Perfect Saturday Night Plan
Conflict: He's a homebody. You're a social butterfly.
Resolution: Invite friends over to your place for cocktails.
11. Coming To A Wardrobe Consensus
Conflict: His fave tee is stained and full of holes. Your taste is pulled together.
Resolution: Take him shopping for fashionable graphic tees.
12. Bonding With His Parents
Conflict: He's superclose to his folks. Their politics drive you crazy.
Resolution: Take them to a show or event instead of dinner to avoid long conversations.
