I am going to give some basic suggestions on how to discuss difficult issues. Topics such as jealousy, cheating, drug/alcohol abuse, how to raise the children, money issues, the status of the relationship, etc. are usually emotion filled. These discussions often lead to fights and sometimes violence. The chance that someone will become reactive during one of these talks is high.
