Avoiding conflict of this nature will not only strain the relationship, it opens up lust as an alternative. Lust never argues with you, exposes your weaknesses, questions your decisions, judgment or common sense. When you avoid conflict with your spouse, you take this pain inside of yourself.
Pain will want to be medicated. If lust has been your medicine, then lust will be pounding at your heart’s door to be let in once again. If you have a cycle of avoiding and medicating with lust, breaking this pattern by getting better at conflict can help you stay lust-free. If you avoid conflict I would buff up on this area so you can live lust-free for a lifetime.
