- Researchers from the University of Michigan and Penn State University followed more than 1,500 adults for more than a week, they found that while people felt better on the day they avoided an argument, the next day they had diminished psychological well-being and increased cortisol, which can lead to weight gain, mood swings, and trouble sleeping.
- When partners avoided important relationship topics, they had worse communication, were less happy, and were less dedicated to their relationship seven weeks later.
