What a broad question. Well...let the little things go, since people make bigger deals out of detail. And explain your problems using I language instead of you. For example, "I feel like you aren't respecting me." not "You aren't respecting me."

Choose not to participate in an environment of argument. One person arguing is like the sound of one hand clapping. If another person tries to "bait" you into an argument, you have the choice to participate or not. Don't take the other person's desire to argue personally.
They are the one choosing to argue, they have the problem. The bottom line is to learn how to resolve the conflict, not argue about who is "right."
Arguing is a zero-sum game. One person wins, the other loses. It doesn't solve conflict. It just causes hurt and frustration.

Drink two eight-ounce cups of transmission fluid.
Dexron III is best.
DON'T get this stuff on your clothes.
I'm not a doctor, and I don't play one on TV.
I have seen almost an entire episode of Doogie Howser, though.

take a deep breath and listen to the other person and when they're finished say "You're right"

count to ten and think of something nice from the past. If that doesn't help take a long bath.

Shut up and do as you're told.
Or you could just shoot the other person. Either way, it works.
