Sometimes multiple times a week. Sometimes weeks between. But we have had some knock down drag outs. But, we love each other and keep coming back for more. Maybe it's just our thing?

That is why I am very happily divorced. She wanted to fight about anything and everything. I truly believe she was/is mentally deranged. I now call my house the "house of peace".

The "true" issues, to me, relate to what you commit to the other person. After that, everything else is small potatoes. And no one goes to bed angry.

And ideally? The only arguments I'll participate in are those that ignite the passion you have for the other person.

Wife and I both have tempers, so things can get too heated pretty quick, but we've managed to deal with periodic arguments or griping for 17 years. No big deal. I think it's kind of fun, actually.

Monthly. It's uncanny.

ha ha yes!
A fight erupts and I check the calendar and sure enough.
Time of the month. Actually a few days before.

Depends on perspective.


Myself: We seem to argue about something petty once or twice a week but come to a conclusion quickly with a joke. Serious discussion/argument about once every other month but, again, quickly. I call that "fighting"

SO: She has physically fought her ex (punch for punch), and has screamed and yelled with another over stupid issues. She calls what we do talking...

She's very lucky to have found me. I'm still figuring out she's in charge

Jeez, not that often. Or not bad enough for me to remember it being knockdown drag-out.

Not that often. It's never much of a fight really, she can barely throw a punch and her defensive skills are sorely lacking.
The hell happened to FTI? Caught the hammer?

I heard he finally came out to his family and now lives in San Francisco working as a street performer. He's happily married to a director at Google named Beto.

My wife and her whole family are into knock down screaming fights then they make up. I don't get it at all. Not my style

She likes to fight all the time; I just nod along until I can go to sleep.

Yep. Winning isnt worth the cost of stress, blood pressure, and kids having to witness. I usually concede just to reduce the noise level if nothing else.

One of my favorite jokes that I repeat to myself often when I just want some freaking peace and quiet:

Why do husbands usually die first?


Because they want to, because they want to.

Ask this guy...


The fact that she seems surprised is GOLDEN!

She outta know him by now! They're both fork tongued and meant for each other.

Yep, they sleep in separate beds.

After texaging for a few months, I'm pretty sure that the majority of married people on this site are teetering on divorce.
Amen to that.

Tell 'em to go watch Fireproof, it just might give them the inspiration they need
