How often do you quarrel with your husband or boyfriend and how soon do you make up....well my husband and me always use our weekends to fight ...and we make up as well as soon as possible ....i think sometimes fighting does bring the two of us even closer in a relationship..i may be wrong ..i may be right..whats your experience?

Actually, my husband and I don't quarrel very often, but when we do, it's not pretty (not in that it's violent, just really intense). During the first two years when we were dating, we quarreled a lot. We've learned to agree to disagree on a number of issues and give one another enough personal space, and I've found that really helps. We also try to resolve fights quickly (hopefully before we go to bed), especially since I can't sleep when I'm angry.

I dislike quarreling but whenever we do (i.e. boyfriend) it is always about something which could of take over so because of this at the end of the day we make up. The bible says that we must not make the sun goes down on our wrath so I have practice it all my life and brought it into my relationship too. Some people say that it is healthy to have this argument but I think it is wrong.

My husband and I don't fight that often. When we do, we make sure never to go to bed angry. We also have a rule that in a fight most LOGICAL point ends the argument. It doen't matter who made the point, just as long as the point is made.

Thats a cool rule...but when you both really get angry doesnt the rule break anywhere at all...cause i can say mad things and act real mad when am angry lol...and i wont remember any rule made then atleast that's how i tend to be sometimes ;) so how do u guys manage to follow a rule even when u fight...but i like when u say that you make sure never to go to bed angry...that is really a cool one :)

Rather often, like maybe 2 or 3 times a week. It's more like arguments than quarrels. However, it' not serious - so we will start talking again after that...so like you say, it's more for airing our opinions, than anything else.

Wow!! I agree with you. But me and my husband doesnt keep it only for weekends we fight there and when its needed ha ha ha..we fight very often and makeup also as soon as possible. Sometimes we will fight at the night and we will not speak the whole night but in the morning before he goes to off he will make sure that he will become alright. that will create more closeness in the relationship and I think being always sweet is boring we have to be little sweet and sour but u should not be serious when you do such kind of fights..
