Bad Advice I Have Been Given, Marriage Edition

“Never go to bed angry (with one another)”

So at the end of the day, when one is most tired and thus prone to slightly insensitive behavior or overwrought irritation at same, rather than just go to sleep and wake up like it never happened, or sort it through in the optimistic morning light when you’re fully rested, you should force yourselves to stay awake and grind through an argument, knowing full well that the fatigue which engendered the disagreement will make you prone to saying things that could escalate a disagreement into an actual fight?

Right.
