How to avoid disagreements?

Grigory notes that he feels as if he has a special sensor installed inside him, which signals him when the situation in the house is heating up. In this case, the husband immediately takes a few steps back so as not to provoke his significant other into developing a conflict.
Tatyana claims that the secret of their strong marriage is the constant discussion of all the problems that arise between them. They cannot imagine not talking for at least a day, even when they are very offended by each other.
After all, when one of the partners is silent, the other will definitely begin to think of something for him, and the conflict will only worsen.
What do Siyatvinda dream about...
The spouses admit that the main thing they dream about is children. Tatyana Siyatvinda has not yet become a mother, although they have repeatedly made attempts to become parents. They approach this problem with a light heart, having long ago decided for themselves that the children themselves will decide when they are destined to be born.
Both Gregory and Tatyana claim that they have long been convinced that only children can make this decision. No matter how hard the parents try, the miracle of birth will not happen before the time allotted to them. They were convinced of this from their own experience.
The couple promise that as soon as this important and significant event happens to them, they will immediately share it with the whole world. Not only with family and friends, but also with numerous fans who sincerely worry about them, wish them happiness and are waiting for the child that both Gregory and Tatyana so desire to appear in this happy and exemplary union.
