Arguing with one’s significant other or friend is not necessarily a bad thing. We all have our opinions and differences, and there will always be a time when we disagree with someone on a particular subject.
Arguing becomes a real problem when it is a constant occurrence. Constant pointless arguing and fighting will invariably bring the end of any type of relationship.
It is all right to voice one’s difference of opinion and disagree with someone, but if the two parties are constantly arguing with each other over innocuous, simple, personal things, or whatever else, they should more than likely reevaluate their relationship to one another.
On whether or not arguing is essential to a healthy relationship, it is not. What is essential is not being afraid to disagree, maintaining good interpersonal communication, and avoiding repressing frustration. In a relationship, one must be able to sit down with the other party, maturely communicate what is wrong, and discuss how it can be resolved.

Without a doubt. Friendships and relationships don't grow unless there is some conflict. The absence of conflict usually means that one party is always conceding and that is not healthy. Provided disagreements are approached on the basis that each party has the others best interests at heart and it is not an excuse to be plain mean then a deeper relationship can result.

no ... but learning how to deal with Arguments and fights in an effective manner is...... in other words... if you fight or argue.. then stick to the facts... not name call and bring up the past... this will help you learn to trust each other.. and that will be essential to have a healthy relationship/friendship.... remember the words that come out of your mouth can never ever be put back in... use them wisely... Good Luck :)

I think an argument is healthy but not a fight. When you argue you vent your anger out vocally but if you fight you or that other person is liable to get hurt. You can't always agree with that other person or you or that person might do or say something to lead up to an argument. Someone should apologize when they are wrong. Kiss and make up not fight. You'll live longer.

Not really, but I think that they are inevitable because people end up bottling millions of tiny things up inside, and they all tend to overflow when some daft thing triggers them off.
I would love a world where no one got angry and argued, but I doubt that it will ever come to be.
