When you have a big fight with your husband, do you prefer to be separated for a while to cooling down the situation, or asked for third person to be your mediator?

I prefer to cool down and my hubby is well aware of that. Fortunately, he is also one who prefers to take a time-out when the argument gets too intense or heated. We usually simply take a break and let each other cool down first before addressing the issue again. The main thing is to return to the issue and not to leave it unsettled.
