Conflicts are very common and natural in any relationship. Conflicts show that partners care for each other and that's why they try to force the other person to do better. But sometimes, conflicts get beyond limits, especially when you are dating a psychopath and it destroys a relationship. Here are 5 tips for dealing with conflicts in a relationship.
If there is a conflict in a relationship, stay calm and analyze the situation. Most people lose their minds and speak something bitter that results in ending the relationship. First, take some time and think, and then speak about what message you want to convey.
Give your partner a chance to speak and express his/her points. Listen to him/her actively and then analyze the issue with maturity. Maintain eye contact during the time and show empathy to analyze the situation from your partner's point of view.

When you listen to your partner carefully, it's your turn to express your points without blaming or accusing your partner. Use “we” instead of “I” while making your points.
Try to find common ground with your partner and ensure the same mistake won't happen again. Most couples try to win the argument and dominate the other partner. But it will be wise if you try to find a solution instead of winning arguments.
If you find your mistake ask for forgiveness from your partner and if your partner made a mistake, forgive him/her and maintain peace. Maintaining peace in a relationship will help you to ensure personal growth in your life and career.
Understanding and analyzing the root causes of conflicts and solving the issues can help you to maintain peace and bring romance again to your love life.
