Sometimes I think that fighting forces you to address things exactly *because* it turns you into the person that you're not happy being. By being mean or snippy (or in my case weepy and sensitive), you give voice to the issues that you otherwise push down below the surface.
But it only works if there's genuine desire on both ends to resolve the fight... if either side is too entrentched and isn't intersted in resolution, then it just becomes resentful.
Glad you came through the other side feeling positive...
