  • Are quarrels bad or good for a relationship?

    Some people I know assert that they never quarrel with their other half.

    Is this good or bad for a relationship?

      Is that from personal experience BeBro?

      So it is good not to have quarrels? Since it is inevitable to have conflicts, I'd thought quarrels are like safety valves.

          No, if all they can do is scream. Yes, if they can both listen to each other.

            No quarrels means either no involvement or one member allways ending up drawing the short end of any deal, leaving a lot of frustration.

              yes, or to be more precise, testing times are good for relationships. If they're for good, they'll last, if they'll collapse, did you really want it in the first place?

              This is nice in theory, of course. Reality is quite different.

                It's all about how they're fought, how they're resolved, and what they're about. In general, when they aren't screaming affairs in which truly hurtful things are said, there is satisfactory resolution, and they aren't about nitpicky details, they can really strengthen a relationship. Otherwise, I think they serve as a demonstration of why that couple shouldn't be together.

                    Never listen, just pretend, remember they are trying to brainwash you

                      Are relationships without fights and quarrels less passionate, or is it just a matter of characters of the persons involved?

                        too many is bad, but too few is as well.

                          matter of charaters. my gf and i don't have many fights, and usually whatever ones we do have aren't anything that lasts a long time.

                            Question is pointless, since all relationships will have quarrels.

                              they can be good or bad

                              if both sides are just talking at each other, bad

                              if each person is willing to compromise and help the other get what they want, good
