How To Fight In Love
Some couples never seem to argue. They are very polite to each other, saying thank you a lot and doing nice things like making each other tea. They get worried when they hear about other people fighting. It's okay if they feel a little proud of themselves for not arguing. But just because they don't argue doesn't mean their love is healthy. When two people try to live together, they will have differences and problems. Not arguing might mean they don't care anymore, not that they are mature. The goal is not to avoid arguments completely, but to learn how to argue in a better way.

Our partner's behavior is not always about us. They have their own worries and past experiences that shape them. We should try to understand where they are coming from and not take everything personally.

We need to choose the right time to argue. Arguments are not just about logic but also about emotions. So, it's better to wait until we are calmer and have a better chance of resolving things.

It's not important to prove that we are right all the time. Our goal should be to have a happy relationship with our partner, not to win arguments. Even if we have fights and say hurtful things, it's normal. Love can be messy sometimes, and arguments can bring us closer in the end.
