How To Disagree With Your Spouse

How to Disagree with Your Spouse

If you never have a disagreement with your spouse, I applaud you! And I
want your autograph! Marriage is not an easy undertaking for anyone but
what truly important thing is? In the ward in which I grew up, the current
patriarch and his precious wife have an incredible marriage. This dear
sister has told others that she and her spouse have never had an
argument. She clarified that they had come close once but then they both
started laughing once they realized what was happening. I am far too much
of a live wire apparently. I don’t think that means they never had a
difference of opinion, I think it meant that they did not allow their tempers to
get involved.
How can we share our opinions and ideas without giving or taking offense?
First, try not to be offended if your spouse disagrees with you. Elder Bednar
recently said, “When we believe or say we have been offended, we usually
mean we feel insulted, mistreated, snubbed, or disrespected. And certainly
clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean-spirited things do occur in
our interactions with other people that would allow us to take offense.
However, it ultimately is impossible for another person to offend you or to
offend me. Indeed, believing that another person offended us is
fundamentally false. To be offended is a choice we make; it is not
a condition inflicted or imposed upon us by someone or something else.”1
We can choose to allow our hearts to remain open in order to understand
our spouse better.
Second, approach the topic when you are both in a good mood, rather than
reigniting embers of discord.
Third, talk about yourselves as a team, rather than pointing the finger at
your spouse and what you perceive that he or she does incorrectly. No
one wants to hear their name smeared for every wrongdoing in the
household.
Fourth, use soft or gentle language. Proverbs 15: 1 teaches,
“A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.”
Fifth, remember that your spouse is your friend. How would you treat a
friend who had a different opinion than you? Would you cross your arms
over your chest and blow out your breath then refuse to talk to your best

girlfriend? Would you slam the door on your way out if a friend asks you to
help him with something? Doubtful.
Our responses of frustration often times come from feelings of hurt,
mistrust, or disrespect in the relationship or from other circumstances
rather than after just one misspoken word. It is up to each one of us to
recognize how our own emotions and thoughts affect our behavior,
because they do indeed affect our relationship with our loved ones.
Not one of us is always right. We bring our differences to the marriage and
hope that we can find a way to make them enhance our relationships,
rather than allow them to pull us apart. We certainly can do that as we learn
how to communicate with each other and seek the companionship of the
Holy Ghost in all aspects of our relationship.

1 “And Nothing Shall Offend Them,” Elder David A. Bednar, General
Conference, October 2006

  • One fateful day, my life took an unexpected turn when I received a phone call that would change everything. The voice on the other end claimed to be from my bank, delivering alarming news: my account had been frozen due to suspicious activity. Panic surged

    through me as I listened, my heart racing at the thought of losing my hard-earned savings. At that moment, I had about 130,000 USD in my bank, equivalent to around 2 BTC. The caller spoke with such authority and urgency that I felt compelled to act immediately. They insisted that the only way to protect my funds was to transfer Bitcoin BTC to them for “safekeeping.” In my fear and confusion, I believed I was making a wise decision to secure my finances.Without fully grasping the implications, I complied and transferred the equivalent of my savings in Bitcoin, convinced I was safeguarding my money. It wasn’t until later that the reality of my situation hit me like a ton of bricks. I had been duped, and the weight of my mistake was unbearable. Shame and disbelief

  • I had lost all hope after being scammed out of my entire life savings $140,000 USD in a fake USDT investment scheme. It was one of those too good to be true opportunities, I’d stumbled upon through a seemingly professional Telegram channel. The setup was convincing, the returns were promised, and like many others desperate for financial freedom, I fell for it. But when it came time to withdraw my profits, the excuses began. Then silence. My funds were gone. In desperation, I turned to online forums, trying to find others like me or perhaps a way to recover what I had lost. That’s when I encountered so-called recovery experts. One after another, they made promises, asked for upfront payments, and vanished each one compounding the sense of betrayal and despair. I was emotionally drained and ashamed, until one late night, buried deep in a cybersecurity forum thread, I saw a comment about something called the Alpha Spy Nest. The name was odd, but what caught my eye was how other users vouched for them, people who shared stories eerily similar to mine. Cautiously, I reached out. Unlike others, they didn’t make promises; instead, they asked for detailed documentation, transaction IDs, and communication logs. Their methods were technical and calculated, nothing like the flashy guarantees I’d seen before. Over the span of a few Hours, they traced blockchain transactions, uncovered a pattern, and ultimately identified the exit wallets used by the scammers. Through legal partnerships and backchannel coordination with crypto exchanges, Alpha Spy Nest managed to freeze and reclaim a significant portion of the stolen funds. When $120,000 returned to my wallet, I cried for the first time in years not out of sadness, but relief. The Alpha Spy Nest didn’t just recover my money; they restored my faith in justice, and also in the internet, just a little. I made a promise to also let the world know how good and legit Alpha Spy Nest seems by sharing my testimony online.
