Biggest win so far: hearing my wife say to me "Sorry I got emotional."
Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but having someone else apologise for their emotions doesn't sound like an EQ win to me.
Usually, in any heated situation, I would get tense and cause the situation to escalate out of control. After cooling off, I would be apologizing to her for my behavior in the situation.
In our time together (over a decade now) - she never apologized to me for her behavior.
The fact she did twice recently feels like a shock to me because it's so unusual for me.
It's an EQ win in the sense that I didn't lose my cool as usual.
Hope that adds context.
