Don't capitulate because you're tired and you don't want to have this argument (again), if you're going to be resentful.
I have always been incredibly bad at this. The reason I give in is that I can't take it anymore, over and over again. I've had this problem in other relationships, and I know it's something I just plain need to stop doing. :|
" With capitulation, you've forfeited the right to "I told you so."
I am also bad at this, probably because of the reasons I capitulate in the first place.
I'm also kind of of the belief that I am not 100% sure how to have a healthy relationship. We have spent almost a decade now in relationships that turned unhealthy, and…now I'm not sure how to interact properly, I guess? I still believe that I can learn. Eventually.

I'm trying, at any rate.
