cohabitation conundrum: Battle Royal
Every couple is different. Every fight is different. No matter if it's with your man, friend, mom or coworker. When your in the thick of it with someone it sucks. How you deal with it is a different story. Personally, I prefer a good karate fight, but to each their own.
It's Good For Your Skin
No, arguing is not scientifically good for your skin, but I do believe it is good for your relationship and the soul sometimes. If I had to define my relationship arguing style I would put it under "spats/tiffs", short and sweet. Not to say we don't have more serious arguments, but the day to day are typically short little quibbles. In a weird way it makes me feel like we care about each other. They come and go, as long as they don't bubble over into some hidden real issues they can help you get out your frustration and feel like you can just breathe again.
The Little Things
If I've learned anything, what you fight about early on, you will probably always fight about it... Not to be a pessimist, but it's true. I remember my mom saying it to me in the early years of my relationship, and in true daughter fashion I though "Nah, she's wrong", but no she was right! What I have learned is how to deal with those things that drive you crazy. I'm not saying roll over and don't stick up for yourself, but there are those things that will always get under your skin. Those little things that almost feel like a game of chess or a staring contest. So you have a choice, to argue or let it go... WARNING, little things can morph into one big monster. So don't try to avoid dealing with the little things, cause just like gremlins they start off cute and harmless and then all of a sudden they turn into a hellacious beast! You may black out and have no idea how you got from taking out the trash to your mother in law hates you and you don't really care bull shit.
The Big One
These ones suck, like really suck. And honestly there is nothing anyone can say to make you feel better about these. Everyone has them no matter how "good" a couple may seem, they are bound to happen. How you move on from them is different. Just know what truly matters to you and if you and your partner can't agree then it's a time to really reflect on where your relationship stands. I know no one wants to hear that, but it's true. Kids, religion, the best Thai restaurant, what ever your deal breakers are be true to them cause then you can be true to yourself!
Final Words:
- tequila = random babbling fight over who knows what, you were warned!
- the dishes will never get done, but I still like arguing over them :)
- nagging is necessary and don't let them tell you otherwise
- sometimes you just have to out crazy the other person, it's some national geographic shit. It works!!
- boobs can always end an argument
