I do experienced this kind of relationship last 3 years ago and believe or not it's so nice when you and your partner is not arguing so much but it's also not good in other way since we just have one big fight and it's over!My fiancee now,we fight a lot but we immediately fix it that day and it's much more better for me since it really makes me feel like I know him much better in both sides good and bad.How about you?What is better fighting a lot or not then broke up?

a lovers quarrel is a test of relationship endurance and knowing each other much deeply... the exchange of heated emotion is also therapeutic to the stress of parties involved.

i have to agree with these opinions. :-) It many ways, it strengthens the relationship too. I guess, at a certain point, it's a matter of perspective.

They are both equally as bad!to fight all the time and break up means at least you gave it a chance though. To fight only once and quit seems like a waste and the relationship wasn't worth trying to save. Which isn't always a bad thing! lol!

I don't think we need to fight when we are in relationship. Love is a kind of respect,cherish,understanding and consideration... Not to fight, not to have quarrel or anything like that...

Just like you and your fiancee, me and my bf always have petty fights and misunderstandings and we make it a point that we make up before even going to sleep. I think it's really much better that way to know your partner even better, good or bad ways, and to even understand him even more. Than not really knowing what is running inside his mind.

I agree with you, for me it is better to show our objection on something right away rather than letting it eats our mind, heart and love day by day. Maybe don;t call it a fight, it is more like an argument in a discussion.

definitely its not healthy if person in a relationship always fought with each other as it will put more stress on both sides. but it is also not good to keep you hanging where in your partner will just broke up with you for a single fight only in every relationship its always have to be give & take. all misunderstandings should be discuss by both so that u will understand each others side of story. communication is the key for every relationship,it is indeed good to have some petty quarrels sometimes.

I much prefer a lot of littler fights than one huge break-up blow-out. I think it keeps the relationship alive to be comfortable enough to fight and get over it repeatedly.

this kind of behavior is doomed to fail and won't surely last. For some couples fighting is the fire that keeps their relationships alive. It lets them know the other cares. Many are determined to win a battle that never ends. Others try to right the wrongs they have experienced in the past with someone new.

Hi, During my dating time, I do argue with my boyfriend on and off. There was once , we were arguing about something(can't remember what is the case that we were arguing) and my boyfriend just throw the things that he was carried on his hand to the floor and I was pretty suprised with his reaction.It was his first time being so fierce to me and I was pretty sad. I faster ran to the corner and cried,but then after awhile, he came to me and said sorry to me. Then we have a good chat and patched back within half an hour. I believe some argument may make our relationship more lively and we have better chance to know each other character better. Now, we are married and we still do have little argument on and off. Sometimes, we just don't agree with each other thinking and then started our cold war again,but next day..everything will be fine again.

Hi Insulin, well for my partner,we really don't argue that much! Misunderstanding is the word for us but after a day or a week then everything will be alright. It doesn't last for long.

Hi Insulin, My fiance and I are now together for 5 years and we had a lot of small fight along the way. But we always fix it as soon as possible. And I do really prefer it that way because it shows me his true colours so it is the same for him towards me. It helps us to understand more about each other and now we know what our likes and dislikes, what makes us angry, what makes happy, what worries us and so on. I had some friends who were really happy in a relationship and never had an argument but after few months being together they started disagreeing over few things and decided that they are not compatible because of those differences, but it is a different story between my fiance and me. For us those differences is of course the biggest challenge to overcome if we wanna success in the relationship. Good luck and have a nice day

No one that's in a serious relationship should break up after one fight, because then it seems like they were never really committed to their relationship. Couples are going to have arguments, its just how things are. Do they expect to argue a lot? No. Its all about how you decide to resolve the issue and find out if it's something worth fighting about at all. I personally have fights with my husband all the time, but we discuss the issue, resolve it, and we've made up by the end of the day. If you truly care about your partner, then communicating to resolve the fight is much better than just ending the relationship.

Fight alot is my choice. In this way, we will be able to understand each other more, better. If there's no fight, no arguments, i don't think that's love between us and it's not going to be a healthy relationship. Just imagine what can happen when we start bottling everything up inside of us. When we were to suddenly explode one day, they will turn round to accuse us instead. IN order to prevent such things from happening and it's very hurting, i will rather have small fights once in a while, be pampered.

hi insulin, Based on my experience, its good to have a lovers quarrel at times to help both couples to be mature in theri relationship and to grow their relationship for the better. :) I had also witness my friends lovelife, and when she had a relationship with this guy, they never fought through out their dating days... As they both decided that they will be in a serious relationship, that the time they had this serious fight then right away broke up... its sad because they look good together. I think it is best that if couples had to fight in some issues, they have to fix and talked about it then check find out what is the resolution for it.

I think a reltionship that doesn't have some kind of conflict is not two people being their true selves. I would not end a relationship over one fight. relationships take work and sometimes you are not going to agree. as long as people are not hitting each other then i say a little conflict and resolving it is the most healthy kind of relationship

it depends on what we are arguing about. if it is something that we can't resolve or it would be too hurtful or dangerous then i would break it off. if it is something we want to work out together; both of us working on it, then i think discussing and trying to work it out is best. if one person wants to work it out and the other dosen't then i think that we shouldn't go on any further. it takes two to work it out.

I don't think you'd like to go through a situation again wherein you and your partner doesn't fight at all.Because as you mar have compared and realized by now that such relationship isn't healthy. Fights are part of a healthy relationship because it is during those fights that you will come to know each other fully. It is during those fights that helps you make assess if you are truly ready to be with him for the rest of your life . And it is during those fights that you will realize how much you love (unlove)each other. I was in college when I had a relationship with a guy who was very patient with me. We did not fight, everything seemed so smooth. Then, we argued and had our first fight. I then realized that I don't love him the way I thought I love him. I just love him because he was so easy on me and that he made me feel so safe. We patched up but I broke up with him, not because of the fight but because I knew then that I don't love him enough...

Well I think fighting is no solution to anything. So fighting should not be an option when it comes to sorting out a problem especially in a relationship. Both should cooperate with each other, if there is some problem they should talk about it calmly and try to figure out the reason for it and should work for the loopholes. And if it feels that its not working out and it wont last long, then it should be a mutual decision of both to broke off but on a good note and should say good bye with a smile. Well thats I guess it should be, I know there are situations where we lose control over our emotions and end up being crazy but that we regret too later. So it always good to keep your cool, listen to your partner, trust them for its the base , and if it doesn't seem to have a future move out of it.

interesting. but i think fighting can be good for a relationship but if you fight once then break up. it does not seem like a healthy or wanted relationship from starters. if you fight, your suppose to stick it out. learn and grow. not just fight once and give up. i think thats worst. at least fighting a lot, shows an interest in the relationship
