S/O arguments: Do you "fight" the same way as your SO?

James is confrontational and often fights dirty.  I will run from conflict, and often bottle things up.

TTC #2 for a million years: SA normal, CD 23 bloodwork shows nothing amiss, ovulation detected. Next step: ? maybe CD3 bloodwork to check eggs? All out of pocket, so limited IF tests/treatments.

    H bottles things up. I'm more confrontational.

    Well I used to be, I've been really trying to calm it down.. I like to talk things out, A LOT.

  • h bottles things up... it usually has to do with my lack of cleaning/organizing, and the way he remedies it is to clean up himself....and bang pots and pans while he's at it. other than cleaning, i'm a perfect wife Wink

    if something bothers me, i tell him. he'll say okay, and we fix the problem.

    our "spats" last about 3 lines each, if that.

    Haha, this is totally me. I get irritated when my H was suppose to do something and neglects it so I make a huge production of doing it myself. He's a bottler.

  • I like to discuss things as they arise (before they become patterns/problems) and dh's approach is to ignore things and bottle up related emotions.   As such, most of our arguments come from him being upset by several small things i know nothing about, all at once.  He hates my approach and i hate his :)  And almost all our arguments come from mis/under communication, so they are all resolved, just not always pleasant.

    This is me and DH exactly, except I'm the one who ignores/bottles small things.
