It is well known that life partners argue over one thing or other. Arguments are part and parcel of everyone's marriage life. Have you ever noticed how many times you or your partner have an argument with one another? How long will these arguments last? The arguments between partners affect the children as well. Do you restrict to argue in front of children?

I do not think that there is even a single day on which we two have not exchanged the arguments. Perhaps we have altogether different views for almost all the things around us. Right from the taste of food dish to types of TV programms we have difference opinions and some of them come up alost regularly. I do not think that there is anything wrong with that. However, I full agree with you that the arguments in front of the children affect and so we should be careful to avoid such things. Well normaly we end up keeping silent from one side and then after some time both of us would become normal and forget about those arguments.

None. When i feel angry and try to argue or even quarrel with my husband, he will be silent and leave me alone. When i feel better, he will come back and comfort me. So i don't have any chance to argue with him.

We don't aruge in front of the kids and honeslty my husband and I don't fight very much. It's Sept now and I would have to say our last fight was maybe in Feb and that was over something dumb, we were fighting over the kids and their Valentine Party.

My partner and I argue but it's part of the relationship. Sometimes things just boil over till it does explode but each fight seems to bring us closer together when we finally make up. Our last fight was just last weekend and we made up and are closer because of it. It lasted almost all of last week but we've actually fought longer than that. I hate fighting, everyone does. But it does seem to help the relationship sometimes. If we had children I'd make sure to keep them out of our arguments. They don't need to know why my partner and I are fighting and we don't want them to think it's about them.

My husband and I have disagreements all of the time but we hardly ever argue anymore. I hate arguing and he knows it. We just try to talk our disagreements out and meet in the middle. We used to argue all of the time. That gets old.

I should acknowledge that I am generally instrumental to the initiation of such useless argument with my better half. She is not such stubborn and her weapon is silence and ignoring what I am after. I have realized that such weapons are very sharp and enough to chisel me and that way too I have been shaped as I am at present. Hence I must say I am obliged to her and this is me indeed to remain obliged to everybody if I find myself improper in argument and in any case whatever.
