Arguments

If there is one thing couples have in common it's arguments.  Perhaps a few chosen words about what one of you is hogging the tv watching?  (For heaven's sake dear, not another cooking show.) An instance when one doesn't like what the other said to their child. (Excuse me if I think the French Foreign Legion is a decent career choice.) So I should be sorry for using my right of free speech to tell our daughter what I think of her current boyfriend. (When did goof and weird become an off-limits term to use?) We all argue with our partner from time to time.  A good portion of those arguments is over something silly.  My wife and I had one of those ridiculous heated banters this weekend.  It had to do with our Salt and Pepper Shakers. I don't know what my wife does with our salt and pepper shakers but they constantly disappear and are never seen again.  I hate salting something by pouring from a Mortons Salt container.  It's also difficult to put a pinch of pepper on my scrambled eggs when I have to shake it from the pepper can.  It's always a disaster.  The wife and I had a few heated words while I was making breakfast.  I expressed my frustration with the constant disappearances of our salt and pepper shakers.  I told the story of how growing up we had the same shakers in the kitchen all through school.  My wife hates it when I compare her to something my mother does.  It never helps that I mentioned perhaps she could ask my mothers advice about how she never lost our shakers all those years.  At that point, we had more words.  Except the wife used more words than me.  Which isn't good.  We did get a new set of Salt and Pepper shakers this weekend.  I hope we'll be able to hang onto these for a while.  Just for your information men.  No man has ever been smacked by his lady while he was in the middle of doing dishes.  During an argument that a good safe space.

You shouldn't see me going to sleep in our bed as a sign of victory.

Black and Blue

Black and blue, Till I love you. Each verbal fight is just a stain. Just that. Like mining, well we struck vein. A sensitive one. Blacksmithing words To destroy each others world's. Wars between two races. Many lives will go. So will many faces. And I loved you so. So I tried to tell you, And hold you close. And things calm down and they got better. I could cry again and Listen to the voice of Eddy Vedder. I spent less nights with tear covered eyes. Dreaming less of nightmare Draculas. Spying gargoyles. In fact you know... I spent more time dreaming about your eyes ... The less we fight And, The more we love. The less we suffer. Wounds that would... Normally make us tougher. It's true what doesn't kill you, Makes you stronger. But in matters of love. Verbal warfare can trash you. Getting thrashed. And in the after math, Find your bruises, Black, and, blue. The only friends you'll have with you.

Ways to fight fair

The way you argue makes or breaks relationships

Sooner or later people in close relationships end up disagreeing and that leads to fights. By fights I am talking about arguments not episodes of physical violence. What happens during and after those disagreements determines the fate of the relationship.

Pile up a lot…
