Hi there, I usually don't pick fights with my spouse. My spouse is pretty good at doing that on his own. I'm usually the one who tries to work things out first.

hahaha, doglady I like your attitude and openess. In love there should be no room for ego.Love means no calculations, no ego at all. I salute your attitude because your love is real.

we both are HOT by nature ...and when we have fight...then first i have to shut up...as i know that if i continue to debate, the condition will go worse....then when he has spoken enough, and when he goes otu fo house...he forgets everything...and when returns home, tries to be normal...but then i start......coz i cant keep things in mind...so until i have spoken what i want i wont be calm....and then things come to normal....so what you are saying never happens between we two...we keep quiet when we are happy...he is nto too much talkative...but when angry...he becomes ANGRY YOUNG MAN ....but never happened that we are not talking to each other...

Its usually me who will break the silence. I am talkative type with my family members and I just cant nurture a grudge against them. So everytime I fight with my husband, I shout a lot and he is the silent type so I become more angry. And after I have spent my energy shouting my lungs out, I usually stop talking to him till my anger dissipates. After a few hours maybe, I again go and talk to him normally.

It is usually the man who initiate to break the silence. Men usually are scared of silent war. They feel threatened if the cold war continues. And for women it does them no harm. The longer the silence the better, as it will mean more freedom.. I chose to remain quiet and isolate myself for as long as it remain in silent mode.

It happens often and whoever is the reason for the fight,I will be breaking the silence first.My wife is an egoistic girl and she will not step down easily.Having learned this from the beginning,I usually give up to stop the cold wars.Because I take her with all her good and bad qualities.Life cannot be smooth if you can't accept a person in total.Cheers!

It depends on what the fight was about. If I am at fault, regardless of who starts the fight, I usually own up to it...not only with my husband but with everyone else, too. I don't hide from my responsibilities and that includes relationships, too.

i don't pick a fight with my husband they just some times happen but when we stop talking he usually breaks the silence because he don't like it when i am not talking to him and he knows i can stay silent for a very long time infact days if i am mad enough .
