  That’s true. They say that when couples give up and stop fighting that is when the relationship dies.

    I never understood why people feel the need to fight with their SO so much? Why can’t the issues be talked constructively and respectfully towards each other? Why the need to let things get so bad that you need to fight over things?

      Some people consider any discussion about difficult matters ‘a fight’.

        Yeah wouldn’t want to be in a relationship with that kind of a person…

        I was in a relationship like this and it was a PR nightmare because all our friends/family would think we are “fighting” like domestic violence when in actuality it was simple difference of opinion, like whether we should budget or what to have for dinner.

      They don’t know how to talk constructively and emotional topics get, well, emotional
