Who's fault was it? The last time I remembered was, we quarreled about my attitude everytime I get angry on just small unreasonable things. I should be in an anger management program right now before I can loose my marriage.

it is very common for young couples to argue or fight over petty matters. the last time we argued (it was not a fight actually) was just about how the laundry dryer. i know it is just a small thing but sometimes small things are neglected so i told him to use the dryer carefully because it's been a useful tool to me.

Mine was not really a fight either. He just told me to get over it but I keep on pouting. He just kept quiet because he knows that I will just calm down minutes after.hehe I try to calm myself down through deep breathing techniques and then by thinking positive. Before I knew it, I forgot about those unreasonable things and then, we laugh together!

Most Guys are hot headed compare to women's. Though they get angry on small things but they calm down in no time and realize that they had done wrong. Silly fight happens between husband and wife. As we all are human beings. But the real test is after the quarrel; one should have to compromise and get back to normal. Never break a relationship for small quarrel's which commonly happens in a relationship.

What you said is true jackjill123. A relationship should not be broken just because of a small quarrel. We should know how to calm down and to handle these quarrels too. On small things, it is easy to repair this. But on bigger issues, couples are lucky when they find forgiveness on each other and of course that love that still sparks.

Every time I fight with my husband. Also because of small things. My husband often angry, when I make small mistakes. I am sometimes annoyed. But I more often silent.

It is a good thing that one must be silent during an argument. Like my husband is whenever I get angry. The moment I knew it and realize that it is just a small unreasonable thing, then I forget about it. My husband would just joke on me that I am getting so angry just because on that small thing.

It's about few months back? That's the time he told me he's going to spend more time with his work, due to a new project coming on. He assured me that our time wont't be sacrificed, but he did not keep his word. Much as i try to be understanding, i can't help but to lose my temper when he stood me up time and time again. We have quarrel countless times on that, and he knows his mistakes. SO now, i'm not meeting up with him anymore, he has to come over to my house if he wants to see me!

My ex had great anger issues, if you recognize it as a problem do something about it quickly. It doesn't have to be a "program", you can simply find things that relax you, like music, work-outs, hobbies, etc. Remember not to take it all out on people you love. If you have to swear or get your anger out of your system, do it to a driver that cuts you off or something. Get rid of your anger by talking to a picture of your boss or by thinking what really angers you, not your loved ones. I'm not married but I had a fight with my boyfriend yesterday about the fact that he's not contributing financially to the house. I believe it's his fault he's not trying to find a better job and he believes it's my fault because I'm not patient. Other things I complain about are that he's not cleaning much around the house and he's not very responsible. He seems like a 15 year old to me. He complains because my diet is not healthy and I have gained around 10 pounds lately (I'm 5'5'', 135 pounds now) and that I don't talk dirty to him. He also complains about me being to demanding and not acknowledging the things he does for me. The good thing is we usually make up after a few hours and everything is back to normal. Everyone fights and we all have issues so don't feel so bad about it.

Wow. That was not a small issue anymore. It is quite plenty. But you managed it well. I am so proud of you! =) When we fight with my husband, I am really careful on what I am saying. My husband is the one not careful on what he is saying because he says some things that he said it is not true (as he apologizes after). And it so painful to hear it from him! I can't help but cry. It is the only way I can let out my feelings. I am not much of a talker.
