How do you manage your partner's bad moods?

Hmmmm...HIDE...

Plenty of space.

I don't live in the past.....but I will do every thing in my power to make sure my next partner doesn't have one...

Just kiss him.(like a little kiss)

How sweet....

I don't date men who have bad moods or anger problems. I just stay well away from those types. I can't afford to have negative energy of any kind in my life. And if it turned out that a guy I was dating, was having a bad day, I'd probably try and be all goofy, by trying to make him laugh, or run him a relaxing bath, and pour him a beer, but you kind of have to be careful about using alcohol to cheer people up. Just incase it ends up with them using alcohol to self-medicate.

That's easy, leave him and come to me ;)

generally just stay out of the way. People do get into bad moods sometimes and need time to sort it out. Sometimes we can cheer others up, sometimes that just makes it worse.

I try talking about it, if that dont work I give him space till hes cooled down, but If hes always in a bad mood I wont stick around to become miserable like him.

I agree. If someone is always or mostly in a bad mood then other things are going on (that we can't control).....and they may need more than just a little space to make some changes.

First i'll give a glass of water,
then i'll keep some thing which she likes most in front of her,
then i'll give a small hug
then i'll sing a song.( with my song i can make real people run away from me, this bad mood is just nothing )

Protect my privates.

first, learn why they are in a bad mood. there was someone in my life who had most of his bad moods because he was hungry. I learned to hand him a snack and tell him talk to me five minutes after you finish this.
this same person at first didn't know how to open up about feelings. we had a stupid fight one december because I wanted to add some Christmas cheer to his place and he seemed like it annoyed him.
I can't help that im a big crybaby. so he comforted me and said if it's that important, go ahead. I told him I just wanted to make the holidays special. he said he can take it ir leave it, because the holidays is when he misses his parents who are not here.
so it takes finding out what us causing the mood.
