Current Events > Why do so many people say its unhealthy not to fight w your S/O?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been told this a lot, especially by older people. But I've never really got in a 'fight' with anyone I've dated before. There's been disagreements, but it's just never gotten to the point of shouting or becoming heated. Do most people in relationships actually fight?

Arguments will happen. But full on screaming fights, that's not healthy. Then again, as you pointed out it's mostly older couples saying that. The same ones who stayed together for the kids instead of divorcing like they should have done, and now violence and yelling in relationships is ingrained into their kids.

Me and David haven't had a fight yet and I've known him for 5 years. Yeah we (mostly me) have gotten irritated about each other at times, but we always talk about it and it never becomes some emotion filled argument.
