My husband and I just argued and I regret it?

I feel horrible for arguing with him. I apologized and he forgives me (he's very sweet), still I feel bad. Does anyone here on M/D believe/pray to God? If there are Christians out there, will you pray for me to be less argumentive?

Update:

Wow! Thanks, all of you!

Update 2:

Band-aid: I know exacty what you mean, and I intend to work on these things. I just need all the help I can get.

    I agree with DM. Give him another hug. and a long smooch wouldn't hurt either.

    Best wishes

    I am a Christian and believe/pray to God. But that does not release you from taking responsibility for your own actions. God is not going to turn you into a sweet natured person whenever you get your knickers in a twist. And "sorry" only goes so far. It is up to you to learn to temper your words and control your impulsive nature to argue. If you cannot do it yourself, you should seek out some therapy to help you find more positive ways to express your frustrations/anger. Good luck. And yes, I will say a prayer for you right now...

    I would be glad to but remember God helps those that help themselves. So the next time you start to argue, stop, count to ten and tell who ever you are talking to that you need a minute to compose yourself so that you can have a good "conversation". God will know then that you are trying to get your life in order.

    Sometimes arguing is good. You just have to make sure it doesn't get out of hand. If you're under a lot of stress try to find ways to relieve it, then you should feel less inclined to raise your voice over something silly.

    Sure, and I will pray for you that you come to a place of self-forgiving as well.

    I think you need to go give him just one more hug.....he'll hug you back and this will melt away.

    Sure, but in the meantime, here's a trick that sounds silly but really works:

    If, after ten seconds of breathing, you still want to say what you want to say, then say it.....if not (most likely) you won't.

    Best wishes love. Don't be too hard on yourself.

  • Forgive yourself and move on. If you think praying will help, do it.

    I can send a shout-out but I think it will be up to you to have self control.
