Step #3: In conflict, give him time to process.
If we work with the way our man is wired, we’ll be far happier—and he will be, too. This may mean giving him time and space to process his thoughts during an argument.

Pro tip: show your man my recent blog about what you probably need—so he knows what to do before he withdraws!
