I heard from my friend whom just got married and were already quarrelling over petty issues. The common ones that i've heard so far is this : Every morning, you wake up and go to the bathroom, the toothpaste has been squeezed from the middle part tube, usually, by habit, you will squeeze it from the back of the tube. Next, you see that the toilet seat was not lifted up and you see urine on the seat... DO YOU HAVE SUCH ENCOUNTERS BEFORE? SHARE US YOURS!!!

i think it helps to live together before you get married i lived with my now husband for 4 years before we got married now we have been married for going on 3 years i think when you live together first you get to see all the little things that bug you and deal with them before you tie the knot i thought i had seen everything but after we got married there were a few things i hadnt noticed before that bugged me so i brought them up 2 my husband and he said that there were alot of little things i do that bugs him but he doesnt bring them up because he doesnt see the point because they are just that little things and now i do what he does i dont sweat the small things and we get along better then ever

Yup, i agree with you, don't sweat over the small or petty things. However, do be discerning, don't sweep those big issues under the carpet. Resolve those issues and your marriage will go a long way...

That's not really uncommon since when you get married, you tend to discover things about your partner that you've never knew before. Usually, it's those little habitual things that he's done for so long and that you never knew or never paid any attention until the whole marriage. For me, it's not really logical to quarrel over these petty things, you would just be spending some bad energy on it. Instead, what's important, not only in marriage but in any relationship, is you get to respect your partner. Given you really can't stand the toothpaste being squeezed from the middle, both should talk about this seriously and come into an understanding.This is just my opinion =) ^___^

I respect those opinions of yours and in a healthy relationship or marriage, communication is the utmost tool in a healthy relationship, be it marriage, or others. I'm glad you couple realise that where alot of us either do not know or hasn't come to terms with that yet.

I have some in-depth experience in this field as I'm the eye witness of such a happening each day. Issue is not as important as fact that it has to be started somehow. So it gets started almost about anything, from toothpaste to tomatoes and pins to potatoes, anything under the sky, or even above the sky (When the chant the names of their Lt. ancestors!) may be the issue of the day. This usually starts with a humble murmuring from the mistress and goes on increasing rapidly like a forest fire. The sound becomes louder as the time goes on, the hubby has to stop at some point of time.. then someday... a crying-episod of the Mistress follows...while some other day a simple negotiation works for the time being, atleast till the next morning session. And it goes on like an unending soap-opera...and wish it never ends...as we find each episode pretty interesting..lol..

Sometimes a little episodes like those kinda of strengthens the relationship, or maybe she/he is the attention seeker or something? But like i've said, communication is a must have in any relationship.

Well,it is true.You know,new wedding couples need time to adapt to each other.We all have some bad habits.And it takes time to get accustommed to each other.Actually,new wedding couples tend to quarrel more than old ones.Especially in the first five yrs.And some studies show it is the period the marriage is not reliable and easy to break.If new couples can get adapt to each other in these five yrs.They are very likely to have a stable marriage.
