QOTD 7/2
Re: QOTD 7/2
We have arguments, I've never been one to all out fight with yelling, screaming and name calling. That's what H was used to in his first marriage, so sometimes I have to get him back on track.
I feel like it's a cycle, there's times I feel like that's all we do is fight, and then there's times things are good. I think we both get depressed in the winter, so that's usually a rough patch. We've gotten a lot better communicating so it doesn't build and explode, and we've both been working on letting the other person simmer and calm down. This was probably the most benefical thing we got from our pre-marrital counseling.
I have a few CWs that claim they never fight and everything is perfect... I want to throw a chair at them.
Yea ok...cuz that's believable! H and I are never full out yelling and screaming but we disagree and argue it out. People who never disagree are either pushovers or robots.
DING DING DING!
I'm a yeller, but we never name call. We fought a lot before we closed on the house, from both of us being stressed out. We also fought a lot about his parents coming over to our new house too much and "fixing" things without asking us about it first. When they realized they were causing fights they backed off a lot.
We haven't had a fight in a long time... must be one brewing.. lol!
We have little disagreements here and there but but I think that we have only had a fight was when we first moved in together. There was no name calling or anything like that. It was mostly my fault, I did not know how to communicate at all. I learned quickly though.
And for those that say everyone fights, I say Not true. I don't think that I ever got into a fight with my XH. How can this be true you might ask. It is because we never talked about anything more than what's for dinner and who we should have over for a party. It was not healthy.
