What should I do if my partner doesn't think it might be unhealthy or unproductive to allow the hurt partner to have their "moment in the spotlight" while discussing their concerns? For example, if I come to him with something I'm sad about, he responds with comments about how I do that too, or how I do XYZ and it hurts him, or he brings up how he hasn't healed from a past situation. He also seems to consider every disagreement or discussion about relationship issues that need a compromise as a "fight," often getting very angry, starting to yell, and telling me to leave the room. How should I handle this situation?
