How often do you fight with your other half?

daithimac

Seeing as its just passed valentines day and everyone should be crashed down to earth. I'm curious what the average is for having spats with your other half. For me it's nearly weekly which I'm finding a bit much but we're both fairly stubborn people. What's the norm in most peoples relationships and what are they usually about?

Not posting in pi for broader funnier thread but mods please feel free to move it.

No fights.
Must be something wrong there OP.

Never. Not one fight. We've gotten tetchy at eachother maybe 2 or 3 times but always talk it out.

In my only other long term relationship we fought non stop for the last year. At least once or twice a week.

Stavros Murphy

usually 8 to 9 am. Then the coffee kicks in and we become human again. Not great in the morning. She isn't either.

Usually when i come pissed and she finds me asleep in the bath next morning with my pants around my ankles.

Often but at low intensity and quickly resolved/forgotten which I think - hope - is normal.

I'm not sure there is a "norm" in any relationship but in my relationship it's rare, in fact I can't remember the last time we had a full blown row. Now thats not to say that I don't make smart remarks or occasionally live up to my username because I do...but not very often.

Tbh if we were having arguments every week I'd be gone. Not into that shoite at all. If we can't discuss things like adults without it falling into a fight then there's something really wrong.

Having a fight as I type. *ducks plate*

Boombastic

We don't fight, we duel

KERSPLAT!

The odd disagreement but a full blown fight is very rare, can't actually remember having one at all TBH

Never had a fight. Two of us are way too level headed!

Does any one fight over the devil mother in law? My husband's mother says what she likes about me we know she in the wrong but he won't open his mouth. she was nasty evil mother to him when he was young .now just sticks nose into everything. didn't want to know him til I came along. our sons communion nxt month I have banned her she no respect for our kids. And he thinks I been unfair I should just go along with it and let her come as his brother is invited.

Nope. The father in law is more than welcome to her tbh.

Never fight, I always agree with her if something has to be done arond the house that she wants and let her find out the hard way thats she is wrong, like when she wanted to water down the paint, and I told her she couldn't cos its Satinwood, but I let her cos she knew best.:)

Butterface

A few disagreements here and there that are usually resolved quite quickly.

We have big shout-y debates over stuff that has nothing to do with our relationship though. We just both love a good argument.

pharmaton

I mostly fight with the other half of myself in the mornings, sometimes I can't decide whether to have cornflakes or rice krispies. The cornflakes side usually wins. Then it's on to coffee or tea.

Considering the size of our flat, the fact that we have no separate rooms in it and he's unemployed and here a lot, we manage not to argue much. I know I do stuff that irritates him and vice versa but we manage to bit our tongues most of the time. We haven't had a massive bust up in months.

WellThen?

Usually when wine is involved.

You could wait till he's not looking then clonk him with a frying-pan, as a kinda release. When he come around, smile, assure him he "just collapsed" and ye can carry on tension free for months more. Well, you'll be tension free. He might be a bit jumpy.

I just let out a silent scream in the bathroom (which does have a kind of door) now and then and it works just as well. It's good to have all that aggression, resentment and anger pent up good 'n' proper like that, I find.

I'm often struck by your posts. Usually in a kind of "that lad has issues" sort of a way. Have you considered joining the Freemasons?

Gongoozler

I'd like to know why someone would be interested in knowing this about other people.

For my current boyfriend, it's not often we fight. What would happen more often is he doesn't realise that he's wrong, and how wrong he is, so he tends to get flappy about that. I let him have his moan, you have to let them have their say, and just tell him maybe he's right. Then eventually he realises he's just wrong.

saintsaltynuts

We always fight but I always win.Never underestimate a good kick in the gee.

irish bloke

We argue but she never talks back, she knows I'm way stronger then her and pack a mighty punch.

Strumms

Whenever I'm in the mood some damn good make up sex.. I'll start a row.

Ihatecuddles

Never fought with him. We just agree on stuff, and if we don't we talk about it and leave it at that.

I don't have an other half to fight with

Its healthy to have the odd tiff in relationship. Very unhealthy to let things build up.

Current girlfriend - never.

Last girlfriend - daily.

Previous to those - odd argument here and there.

I would say a few times a week. I'm very laidback,maybe to laidback. Because of that she feels that I don't care about anything. Bloody woman.

Can't live with them,can't live without them.
