Arguements

Do you think 2 people that argue alot could really be in love? I love my husband very much I can't imagine my life without him, but I also know we tend to argue about the pettiest of things. He likes to complain, and I don't have the patience to put up with it. At our best our love is perfection. At our worst however, it gets pretty ugly.

Yes of course. You can argue and still be in love. What is important that these arguments are temporary and best forgotten about as soon as possible. They help in us usnderstanding our partner better Each of us have our likes and dislikes. Some of us are more vocal about it while some keep it within us.

Sure, you can argue and still be in love. But how much is 'a lot?' And does either partner hold any resentment? Those are the important questions. My hubby and I don't argue often. And when we do it's really more a 'hurt feelings' kind of thing, at least for me. I've had to fight off some hold-overs from my last marriage and have finally gotten to the point where I at least voice my concerns, though I need to work on the delivery some. :/ And making up is the best!

If your arguments end up being made up then you are really in love. My husband and I used to argue a lot but we always 'made up so you need to think about this. Do you love him enough to overlook his complaining? If not why are you still in this marriage? Your arguments should never get ugly and if they are you need some marriage consuling for sure.

My parents still love each other, even though they're divorced. They're both now with other people in relationships that aren't so volatile. They argued for 25 years and finally decided that they couldn't live together any longer. They fought constantly, and it was a relief when they finally divorced. I'm not saying that your marriage is going to end in divorce, but I don't think that constant fighting is good for you, as a person or as a couple. It's stressful and stress is bad for your health. Good luck!
