My husband and I always engage in arguments, or debate in a more politically correct term. He loves to argue with me, on things, on life and even on simple decision. Like a while ago while we were eating we were discussing about dinosaurs. Our simple meal turns into heated argument, but of course we never get mad at each other. just simple mind stimulation debate, and as always I am on the losing end, he is very good on debates
Sometimes even things like left and right we argue, sometimes I am on the left and he is on the right, or sometimes he is on the other side and me on the other, always like that, we argue and we enjoy it. It is our bonding moments, that usually ended in sweet moments (that is when I lose and I pretend to get mad at him and he would cuddle me)

How about you guys? DO you engage yourself in a debate with your partners?[/i]

We argue all of the time.. You can't be with someone for 40 years and not argue.. We are sometimes as different in our thoughts as night and day, but we never try to hurt one another.. We do have some good arguments or debates, as you so nicely called them, but they are good ones no matter what.. We never really get mad and never say hurtful things that can't be taken back, but we do argue.. Life gets so stressful sometimes that you can't help but disagree with each other..

its depends in your guys perspective of views. me my self also sometimes having some misunderstanding point of views. its normal in our life. but the arguments should be in healthy ways MEANS do argue until one of you get bored and fed up and than undergoing divorce process. DONT. Just my 5 cents of view

My wife and I could not be more opposite in many ways and there are a number of topics where we will surely diverge if discussed. But we do have some common ground which keeps us comfortable and not continually fighting. This has allowed us a modicum of peace in our house.

Yea, I often have these kinds of 'debates' with my hubby. Sometimes it can get rather heated - we are both rather obstinate in our opinions, and I can stand very firmly by my views.
However, it pleases him that he has a 'sparring' partner, because we debate about a wide range of topics from politics, economics, business...to education.
It's rather fun - we don't get angry with each other too - it's just airing our opinions and thoughts!

I always believed the more a husband and wife could talk even if it was arguing the more likely they were to build their marriage into something worth having. It's when the talk stops that your are on shaky ground in a marriage. Each one must be willing to bend a little to have a marriage that is worth the effort. Some times it is hard to merge two different lives into one and that is the first step to building a good marriage. Never close the lines of communication. If you do you are killing all possibilities of coming to an agreement.

fighting is good if its within control. A little bit of fighting helps to grow the relationship. We argue, fight, we reason and at the end of the day we love. That's the beauty of it. But never go to bed reserving the fight and never carry it over night. Tomorrow is a new day, always.
Happy living.

My husband and I used to argue every now and then in our very early couritng days. We courted for 6 years before we got married. As the years went by and our relationship progress and we began to understnad each other more, we argued less. And now that we are married, we hardly argue. We discuss over stuff and come to a conclusion. we have discovered that arguing won't get us anywhere especially in the area of who is right and wrong in a situation. My husband always says the problem is the problem and we have to settle the problem , no pointing of fingers at each other as you are the one I am the one.

Last time I used to argue with my boyfriend but now I am lazy to argue with him. I think it's no point to have arguments in relationship. It's always good to find peace in a relationship. That's what my boyfriend taught me actually. Last time I was the one who found things to argue about. It was always ended up with bad mood and got angry with each other. Of course it would affect our relationship badly. I think it's always the best to discuss rather to argue between couples.

Hmmm We do argue but not as always. Sometimes it will lead to big misunderstanding? Sometimes we will just sleep without talking about it. He will try to talk to me but its me who will not. He will just stop and sleep and in the morning were fine lol..Most of the time we argue is just a very simple thing and its always me who had a problem. haha..well i am just measuring his patience anyway.

What do you mean by argue? healthy debate or fight? well whatever, because we do both most of the times (just kidding!) I am not good in healthy debate because when I am on the losing end i tend to get mad at him and also my hubby is the quiet type. if you mean to say fight, well I think when we fight I just talk and he just listen then it would come out on his other ear, he never minds me, but it is OK sometimes because when he do minds me I think we will fight more, but sometimes I get more mad at him when he don't listen to me, but when it time that he is the one who is angry, oh I guess that is the time that I have to use my best weapon.. CRY LOL!

oh yes!! it's a matter for a relationship, sometimes it it the one that makes the relationship stronger..me and my partner used to argue a lot too, things like you didn't inform me about that story, you should have said it earlier story, you should not be there story, and many other things that spun at the moment..and yes, because of these things we manage to stay together and right now we are on our fifth year, fifth year of arguing but still loving..wahehe!!

yes, a lot! hahaha from petty things up to the point where i won't talk to him or text him in a day. Sometimes it would last for a day or two. I know it is not right to let your arguments last for a day or to even sleep without patching things up.But sometimes you just need to let it go with the flow, let your temper lower down then you can talk to your partner after that. Happy mylotting!

I do get into alot of arguements with my partners in the past, and with most of them dun ending up well.. hehe ^_^ I guess, both of us just dun like to lose, and there are times whereby i give in to her, and let her win the debate.. But there are times whereby i'm speaking from experience and real knowledge, which is totally different from what she thought, and this resulted in a heated argument because she lost badly.. haha
U are very lucky to have a husband like that, and u being his wife, is also being very understanding ^_^ It's just so sweet to know the cuddling part ^_^ hehe

Yes, we do a lot of discussions that sometime it would turn into debate. Sometimes my son would notice we are nearing to get heated up so my son would say... Oppps, time out! Then we would all laugh.

I seldom argue with my girlfriend,I always comply with her ideas.I love my girlfriend, I think that she staying with me is my biggest enjoyment,divergence is not important,but of course,you and your husband's arguement just like a game,that is more interesting to life.Different people have different ideas to life,we have a different choice at this point.
