View Results Some people say that couples arguing is good because it shows strong honest communication and helps keep people together. Others say that couples arguing is a bad thing, demonstrates that you are not on each others wavelengths, struggle to co-exist and implies a vent for inadequate performances in bed.

But "arguing" on a frequent basis is unhealthy and anyone who says otherwise is lying to themselves to justify staying together. --- http://i.imgur.com/VZeCB.gif RebelElite791 <cite>ASithLord7 posted [p:878981131] in How often ...

philsov 05/12/17 5:20:31 PM #3:	Terse discussion happens about once a week Anything involving stuff liked raised voices and/or emotional outbursts with a day or two of aftershocks happens about once or twice a year. I'll rate that as "very rarely" Then again, I'm dating a dude. And for the record, if you straight bros think I get a free pass on typical gender stereotype stuff regarding women logic and shit, I can assure you this grass is only slightly greener. --- Remember that I won't rest, 'til we share the same tense Just know, to me, you're better late than never again. <cite>philsov posted [p:878981434] in How often ...

JOSGABRIEL 05/12/17 5:37:47 PM #4:	I don't think arguing is the best way for communicating or strengthening a bond, honestly. There are way better things than arguing. Anyhow, I do think that arguing on the other hand promotes less tolerance towards your partner until the point where you can't stand each other. Been in a relationship for 5 years and we've only had 4 discussions. We can communicate just fine without the need to make a fuss over something. --- --*PSN:* Jos2793 <cite>JOSGABRIEL posted [p:878982425] in How often ...

garan 05/12/17 6:23:41 PM #9:	I've been happily single for awhile, but with my last gf, it was pretty common. For some reason, she always wanted to start fights shortly before going to bed. I'm so glad to not have to deal with that bullshit anymore. <cite>garan posted [p:878984950] in How often ...

Not that I don't want more kids, but the whole "hormones out of balance" thing was completely undersold. Well don't count your chickens before they hatch... Almost literally. They say pregnancy is easier second time around (apart from the complications of having to deal with the first kid while pregnant) Besdes which when you actually hold the baby in your arms your opinions might change dramatically, either one way or the other. If you have the time and money to handle it, another kid could be a blessing. And you might end up feeling that way in a couple of years time. Alternatively you might end up never wanting to lay eyes on a Goddamn baby again. But either way you're going to have a fun journey finding out!

Soviet_Poland 05/13/17 6:14:38 PM #14:	My wife and I virtually never argue. A lot of this stems from extremely compatible personalities, thought processes, and living habits. There really isn't anything to argue about as we're congruent in all of the "big topics." Also our communication style has always been direct, almost even blunt, because we never take things said about us personally. So small behavioral quirks that seem to be huge catalysts for arguments in other couples never exist. 99/100 times, if a quirk is brought up that "annoys" the other, the other didn't realize they were doing it, or otherwise wasn't important to them, so it's easy to "fix" for the sake of the other. Over 6 years, I can probably count on one or two hands the number of times we've "argued" (which I'd define as a frustrated conversation of two seemingly irreconcilable positions on something) and every time it was due to just a misunderstanding on one of our ends, which usually gets noticed quickly anyhow because of our communication style. I'd say she's on the extreme low end of expressing the common tropes of "female emotionality". She's pretty level-headed, extremely logical, and rejects a lot of the "BS women try and get away with" (her words), so I guess I lucked out in that arena. We've had people probe us on our seemingly never arguing--they assume its a lack of passion or otherwise one of us always compromises completely. Couldn't be further from the truth, but I digress. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." <cite>Soviet_Poland posted [p:879042213] in How often ...
