i was just thinking about how some couple say that they have never had an argument with their FH ever. Can any of you honestly say this? i cant imagine how it could be possible to never ever have a disagreement but i wouldnt mind being proven wrong!

Re: do you and FH argue?
we have screamed and yelled, i have slammed doors and stormed off quite a few times. sometimes i do it because fh is too patient and i want him to get mad too, lol. its really all me that ever gets angry, he's too laid back it drives me NUTS, lol. our arguments never lasted longer than a couple hours though.

i think fighting is more getting loud or screaming and storming away from eachother.as arguing and disagreeing are a little more calm. There are times i wanna yell at him but i dont! and he knows better than to do it to me! lol
Oh ok then I fight lol, its just the way i am lol. I yell even when im just disagreeing with somebody but my dads the same way and we always yelled when we had disagreements lol. I yell at people on the street too, maybe i just have issues. Plus if any little thing bothers me i say it i cant keep anything in even when i try then its like OMG i have to say it, no matter how small it is lol.
HA HA THIS IS TOTALLY ME!
like i had an issue with FMIL hte other day - that we resolved but FH made a remark that i 'overreacted' about it - but i didnt pay attention at the time
like five days later i HAD to bring it up again i was like ' i know this was a while ago but i have to make sure you understand i DIDN'T over react!' i even CALLED him at like midnight and woke him up bc i couldnt just let it go once i started thinking about it
we have gotten better though - when we were younger. . . we would go for walks to fight away from our families and we would be that couple fighting in the middle of the street - i have gotten out of the car - we have thrown things at each other

Re: do you and FH argue?
There will always be disagreements like you had with your parents and close friends. Couples will always fight, but being understanding and being able to communicate with each other will help eliminate most fights. We hardly fight (although FH says he just says 'yes dear' to shut me up) but we honestly don't fight. We've had our blow outs, but communication is a huge part of it. We cool off and talk about it. It may be hours later, but we've both cooled off to understand what the other may have been thinking. There is no way a couple can't fight ever. There will always be something. I've had friends that literally just pick fights with their spouses or SOs just because. It's really irritating and I want to tell them to see Dr. Phil! But there is only so much I can say.

yeah if i keep something in then it will eat at me, i just have to let it out.
HAHA with FH i actually had to try hard at first not to get real crazy bc he is a bit more sensitive although when he gets mad he'll go off but physically he would probably react different and then i'd feel horrible...but yeah when i was younger with my ex i would hit him in front of everyone we were with, start HUGE fights, it was bad though and infact bc of that now I never argue with FH in public or ppl we know...i just give him a look and say later we'll discuss this. I get weird too in front of others to fight, i guess bc i had to always deal with that in the past now i shy away from it

i agree, i learned from past experiences and FH and i dont have all out wars very often. Ive learned to calm myself down and talk it out...So whenever an arguement does start ill try to compose myself and then we talk it out...Its funny bc most arguements we have it ends up being a good experience after we work it out, talk about certain things one is feeling and really get through things. Things i would've normally flipped out about, i handle differently now. Even when i start yelling now i hold back from saying something real bad and watching what i say and then thinking of a different way to handle the situation.
Im a person who believes you learn from past experiences, and although i went through a bit of a crazy relationship in the past, i learned so much from it and bc of it i knew how to handle this relationship and make it work

Re: do you and FH argue?
we used to fight ALLLLLLL the time when we first started dating. in fact, his friends lovingly referred to us as 'the fit crew'. haha...one of us was ALWAYS throwing a fit at the other.
we still fight now, but hardly ever. maybe a few times a year. and we know how to get it out and then make up right away. that's one of the things i love so much about him...he doesn't let me walk away angry.

Re: do you and FH argue?
we argue sometimes, not very often though, but I think its healthy, I would rather us fight about something then to let it bother us

of course fh and I argue, but in the 3 years we have been together and over 2 that we have lived together we have learned how to fight the right way. We are not mean or nasty and the fights are not drawn out, and we both apologize when we know we were wrong.
Arguing is healthy, it gets out all of your emotions. Could you imagine if you held everything inside
i agree FH and i do argue, and i think it is totally normal my mother always says, 'if 2 people agree on EVERYTHING, only 1 person is thinking'

Re: do you and FH argue?
OMG- we fight like a little old married couple...well that's more like bickering. But we do fight (it's always his fault, of course, hehe).There have been major screaming matches. He's a big complainer and i just don't want to hear it so i tell him to pick his battles.
It's actually good advice someone gave us. He knows when he is pushing my buttons and I wont take it so I tell him 'do you want to pick this battle with me- do you want to fight it to the death- b/c I will- but the ? is- is it worth it to you' hahaha
He usually backs off. He's probably thinking I'm a crazy biotch- but I dont care.
He fights w/ me about stupid things like spending $11 to get my car washed (with my $ that I work for). He's an A$$ sometimes---lol

Very True. I don't think I would like him if he had no backbone and just agree with me all the time. Fighting is healthy and necessary - just as long as you do it right. We are stil learning even after living together 3 years.
