[Marriage Series] Loving Complaints Require Self Examination :: Step Two

Step Two: Own Your Part. Ask yourself what was going on in you when
the incident occurred. Are you sensitive to embarrassment or criticism?
Do you care too much what others think? Are you defensive? Look for
the part in you that made this event even harder than it might have been.
Even if she was clearly wrong, how did your temperament make it even
harder. Hint: If it was uncomfortable enough for you to want to confront
your wife over it, your buttons were very likely pushed. Your buttons are
your soft spots.
