We have pretty big fights too. If you wanted to get technical I'd say they last 3 years cause thats how long we've been together and I'm still hearing about things that long later. It's crazy how long someone can hold on to things. I usually say sorry first. We fight about money, discipling the children, and thngs of such nature.

hmm..i don't remember the longest fight but usually we only can stand for 1 day not talking to each other. I just gave birth so when i was pregnant, as u know hormones was not stable so we had lots of fight just because simple things. Same goes when i was still in confinement period, always had fights because i still cannot manage myself with the new environment, i mean that i need to do all things, the baby and cleaning the house, cooking..with all the fights we faced, we know how to manage the family well now.

We fight a lot too, and it can be trivial or with more importance. The trivial matters are always over in just a few minutes, but the important ones take time...longest would b 2 and a half months nearly, could b more too. And it usually is my husband who makes the first move, coz he is the first to start the fight too...

We just passed our 20th wedding anniversary! I can count on one hand how many "fights" we have had, before we were married we agreed to keep an open line of communication. This we have done if something bothers me I tell him and visa versa. We really do not fight as much as disagree. When this happens we both stay quiet for a bit. We have the agreement to never go to bed angree with one another because if one didnt wake in the morning the other would be living with guilt. I think this is a good idea. pick your fights and walk gingerly through the big ones do not say anything out of anger walk away until you are able to express yourself without saying hurtful things. Good Luck
