Okay here we go again my friends and my dear Lottters... I have one simple question as an another part of the anxiety topic I had lately. And thank you for all who were there for those nice sharing... The BR has already given you know... Sorry to violate the rules hehehehehehehe. Here is the question: Is it worth while to argue and lightly fight with a simple and little things? I know that most of us are tied in a relationship, whether so close or something that is distant and virtual... And here is a follow up question: Which relationship argue get trouble most often: Distant or together? Well, I am waiting for your ideas and sharing guys. For me, those little things we argue together just add sweetness to our relationship and strengthen every now and then... See you.

Prime. There isn't really a difference. Whether you are together or far apart, it is exactly the same. It's just that it makes it harder to finish a little disagreement when the one i need to whip isn't that close for arguing with me. TATA.

Hi sweetie. How are you? I know, i just like to tease him. It makes it so much more fun. I won't mind the kiss and make up though. But the whipping will do him good, though. TATA.

In a relationship you need some spices to keep the romance warm and arguments and jealousy is part of those spices to keep the fire alive. Mostly some arguments started with a very simple things.

I am on the middle, I am not jealous, or something that is very loose or something.

hi guys I also think too much jealousy can drive p eople apart, for awhile I was jealous of my husband without cause and it hurt both of is as he felt I did not trust him, we were uust inour first year, then w e grew up and were married 33 years.no jealousy is hurtful.

For all its worth, I believe small things should be talked about or argued for that matter. I believe that small things are really necessary in a relationship because these are the building blocks or the foundation of it. Although, sometimes, it's too petty that it becomes very immature to discuss and argue on such things. But if you really are into that relationship, there's no small and big things, everything is and should be important. So everything is worth the time to talk about. I think those who are always together or at least communicate most often have the higher probability to argue on lots of things since they talk more often. But it really depends on the couple because if they really are very much understanding and patient with each other whether they are distant or together, it won't really matter that much.

Oh thank you for this, when we are into a relationship, then if we truly cares the one, then there are no little and big things, etc, all of them worth our time to discuss and solve...

Sometimes between couples, there has to be a little bit of bickering. I feel that this is cuter and makes them sweeter and their relationship last longer. Whereas if they don't talk and just stay there like a robot, I bet they won't last. Of course they shouldn't be bickering everyday otherwise that'll be too irritating and noisy, LOL.

For a start, i am in relationship with someone about 6000 miles away from me and we have been together for eight months now as a couple excluding two months of being online friends. I can say that i am lucky coz my lover is someone who dwells on something negative and really hates argument. He even initiate first steps of reconciliation when we were fighting and this takes just about minutes. So i can say, that this has made it quite for both of us to deal with the hardships of being away from each other. Online relationship is really hard to beat and it requires more trust, understanding and patience.

I agree with that, missing him/her is killing you in pain and a simple misunderstanding keeps you paranoid. That is one of the complicated situation of being having a distant relationship.

Thank you so much for this wonderful sharing. Yes, distant relationship requires more trust... understanding, time and patience.

Sometimes arguing because of little or simple things helps a relationship. Partners sometimes tend to forget the little details they need to discuss. Arguing because of them helps the partners discuss this details. Most of the time, distant couples get arguing trouble more often. But I think, couples who are together gets the same problem also.

I also find this thing helpful to a relationship bro, thank you for this wonderful idea... yes, exactly, this is about the little details need to be discussed, that if neglected would cause some serious trouble, what do you think?

I would rather be quiet than argue over little things. It is not only a waste of my time but it will instantly shoot my BP causing me to dizziness. Life is too short to want to be in confrontation with others especially with someone that is dear to you. It does no harm to keep our silence and argument will only create more heartache which is not healthy for the growth of any relationship.

Yes, I think so. Arguing is a way of sharing one's opinion. In that way, you will have an idea what will he or she would respond or act in a certain things. It is also a way of knowing each other more. I agree with you..it adds sweetness and give more strength to your relationship. That is the point that lovers must keep in mind. Little misunderstandings are not meant to break a relationship but to make it strong and hard to break. Those are what we call the challenges in your love life. :D Have a nice day!

I will answer your question generally and not pertaining to a relationship. It is good to know that I am not the only one here who had experienced such controversy regarding my response and comment. I just made an honest to goodness response on a delicate topic. I just answered in an honest way that I can without pretending to be the good guy / girl. It is not really worthwhile to argue simple things. Let us not make a big deal out of the simple that is not worth our time, effort and sweat. It will just compromise the relationship that we are having with our loved ones because these simple things are always happening to us and it occurs very frequent. So if we make a big deal out of it then most likely you will argue with these things very frequent too.

I think it is unavoidable for couples to argue. I think argument is a form of test for a couple to ensure they can sustain their relationship in different situation. I believe no relationship would be flawless and there will be argument whether it is a distant relationship or being together all the time. Cheers!

One point for that! Thank you!

Arguments on petty things are sometimes essential in a relationship to spice up our life as long as it doesn't happen often. If it happens all the time, we can get annoyed and would result to a break up. Whether couples are distant from each other or near each other, both can have arguments about anything at all. So I think the distance doesn't have anything to do with it, it's the personality of the couple.

so distant doesn't matter at all, it's the personality counts! Thank you!

I Never see " little things " as little . If something has pi$$ed me off , it is no longer little! With that said , would yu believe me i I told you I haven't argued with my guy.... yet! We can and do talk Everything out . We get each other's point of views! To answer your second question. Distant or together doesn't really msttter . It All depends on How connected you are. There are couples living far apart that are closer than a couple who lives together. Just because you sleep in the same bed means you are well connect! It all depends on the couple.

hi there, its not worth to fight over simple things. and my answer to your second question is you fight most often when you are together. the latter is based on experience. before when my husband is still here with me, we often fight and there are times when we almost broke up. goodluck!

Hello primeaque86! About your questions, 1. Is it worth while to argue and lightly fight with simple and little things? Nope, to me it's not worthwhile to argue and fight even with little things. Because sometimes people can take it seriously if you just feel like arguing coz you're both in good terms. That's what my cousin and her bf does all the time! My cousin will try to aggravate her boyfriend saying, "Well we haven't had any arguments or had a fight yet this week, let's start a fight". I think it's being silly and childish to fight and argue over small things, what will happen if you have to confront him/her with a really big problem then? Why not sort it out straight away or just ignore the little problem like for example, the guy was late on picking her up, she should just understand and hear his part why he is late. 2. Which kind of relationship gets to argue most often: Distant or LDR (long distance relationships) or being together? I believe it all depends how they handle their relationship. Some people when they're in a LDR, they lose in touch and argue more, but that can also go with couples who are together. It all boils down to how you two sort things out, do you talk about the problem, if he/she has offended or done something or nothing at all (like if u ask him to call and he didn't) will you just forgive the person or nag at him/her about it? How mature do you handle the situation? How easily forgiving are you when it comes to petty quarrels? I hope that I have enlightened you in any way. :) And I wish you well on your relationship. :)
