Forgiveness - a way to friendship

In a conversation do not use the phrases beginning with a pronoun "You" ("you were...", "you made...", "you offended...", etc.). It is charge tactics, and it is perceived aurally as aggression.

Tell about the experiences, but without compassionate notes be in good voice and using "I" as little as possible. For example, replace "I so suffered (suffered)" on a phrase: "You know, to me it was sore when we could not come to understanding in this problem". Thereby, you will also tell about yourself, and will show that the partner is not indifferent for you. As motivation to the friendly union the phrases proposing a solution can serve: "Give we...", "If you want, I can...". Try not to ask how now the person without you lives. You left, and private life of everyone - a side which cannot be crossed. If the former spouse or the spouse want, they will tell the secrets, but already at a friendship stage.
