It wasn't very easy. I was emotional at first but once I discovered this (during the fight, sort of exciting actually) then it became easier to manage my emotions along with hers.
Afterward is a different story lol. I was way low after the fact as I no longer had the conflict to focus on and the gravity of what she had said sunk in. However, at the time, it was all I needed to do. Even preserved our relationship, for the long run
were together for a long time following.
