I think you should talk to your mate and let them know how your feeling. Both people have to be willing to work on things. You both have to learn to let things go sometimes.

Why save it? It sounds like there's something terribly amiss. If you really want to save it, you're going to have to ask her why she's picking arguments about stupid little things (I assume she's doing the picking; if you are, stop immediately!). That MIGHT work, but I think there could be other things wrong here. It's impossible for me to say without more information. Good night!
Oh yeah . . . one other tactic that another answerer reminded me of is to simply agree with her when she gets silly. It's impossible to argue with someone who agrees with you. However, it could make you look bad if you do it too much (you may look like a wuss, or someone who can't think for himself). Use caution with that technique.

In the movie Fight Club, members of the club are instructed to pick a fight with a stranger...and lose! The key to winning a relationship is losing an argument.

I have lived with my girlfriend for 2 years now, and we do the same thing. Your relationship doesn't need "saving", you just spend too much time together. You don't get a chance to actually MISS each other..go to work, let her go to work, and then spend time together while you can. It will work out alot better.

Talk about the arguments and see if there is something deeper that is causing these fights. I know it happened with me and my ex and the best thing we ever did for one another is break up. We are both happier with other people and are still friends.

maybe the little things represent bigger problems. like in the break up, jen's character picks a fight about him not wanting to help with the dishes, but it was really about him not wanting to help her and him not appreciating her. or maybe stress from things outside the relationship (like work) is affecting the way you treat each other.

Maybe this particular relationship can't be saved. Are y'all arguing over different opinions, then please go your separate ways because it will never work. Or? Is it over petty things like I don't like candy why are you still buying it for me. If it's something like that then y'all just need to learn each others pet peeves.

In my experience, the little fights are usaully covering a bigger problem that hasn't been resolved.........My husband and I only argu about stupid little things when we are really stressed out or their is something else bigger that we havent brought out in the open yet.

maybe when you feel yourself getting ready to argue stop and say hey baby lets not do this. let try to find a way to talk this over without getting mad and arguing. because it not going to solve this problem

For one full day agree with every thing your partner says and it will drive them crazy and not want to fight...or maybe talk to you again
