Living in different realities can occur when there are small transgressions and a lack of repair in the relationship. Attachment styles formed in childhood greatly influence our adult relationships and can trigger positive or negative attachment patterns. Self-inflicted timeouts can be effective in managing conflicts, but it's important to communicate the intention and timeframe for the timeout. Taking responsibility for our own actions and showing genuine remorse is crucial for repairing arguments and conflicts in relationships.
