Rise above petty arguments in relationships from "summary" of The Way of the Superior Man by David Deida

In the heat of an argument, it can be easy to get caught up in the need to prove yourself right. However, this need for validation often stems from insecurity and a lack of true self-confidence. A superior man understands that petty arguments do not serve the greater purpose of the relationship. Instead of getting drawn into the drama, he chooses to rise above it. By choosing not to engage in petty arguments, a man demonstrates his emotional maturity and self-control. He recognizes that getting caught up in trivial disagreements only serves to create unnecessary tension and conflict within the relationship. Instead, he focuses on maintaining a sense of inner peace and harmony, which ultimately benefits both himself and his partner. When faced with a potential argument, a superior man takes a step back and evaluates the situation with objectivity. He considers whether the issue at hand is truly worth arguing over, or if it would be more beneficial to simply let it go. By choosing not to escalate the situation, he prevents the conflict from escalating further and potentially causing irreparable damage to the relationship. Furthermore, a man who rises above petty arguments demonstrates his ability to prioritize the well-being of the relationship over his own ego. He understands that true strength lies in being able to set aside personal grievances in order to maintain a sense of harmony and unity with his partner. This level of selflessness and emotional intelligence is what sets him apart as a superior man.
