for us.. me and and my boyfriend we are just 9 months and half but i can say we have a good relationship... we had some small misunderstandings but thank GOD we can fix it in just a short period of time... we never shouted at each other and we never threw rude or bad words to each other.. when we have some misunderstandings we're just talking about it in a peaceful manner... after that we're ok
how about you? how can you handle this??

well i have to admit that there has been some raising voices in our house - mostly doen by me. I tend to do that when I get upset =)
However we also always work things out before the day is over and the fighting is very unusual =)

yeah it's good to work things out before the day ends.. just a little advise if a couple has a misunderstanding it's better to talk about it in private learn to listen and talk w/o raising voice just a sign of respect towards your partner and he'll do the same for you..

I was actually having a similar discussion with a friend of mine last night. He said that he loves his girlfriend, but they fight a lot. In the end, though, they still love each other. My boyfriend and I can be the same way. We don't fight often, but when we do, it can get somewhat heated.
I think the most important thing when you are fighting with your significant other is to remember that even if you are fighting about something (whether it is something major or minor), that you still love that person. Most fights are over insignificant things, in the grand scheme.
Just always remember to apologize when you are at fault, and to accept the apology of your significant other if they are at fault. Don't let things simmer unresolved for too long, and remember that there are many reasons why you love that person.

yeah you're right we should be able to accept our faults and learn from it and apologize.....in a quarrel it's not to show that i'm better than him or i'm right and he is wrong it's just a way to express your feelings.. thanks for your response... ^_^
