Can two stubborn people in a relationship really make it work in the long run??

Question

My bf and i are both so stubborn and thats the only thing that we ever clash too. Do u guys think two people like that can stay togather?

Answer 1

Im in a relationship of 3 1/2yrs & we are both stubborn. We have broken up many many times but keep getting back together. Now we are having relationship/individual counselling. It is going ok.

Answer 2

People's teperament never change.
One of the worst qualities of man is being stubborn. WHY??
Stubborn people never let reason or logic work.
Now we have two points: Your relation AND you yourself.
As for your relation, I think, sorrowfully enough, it won't work whatever sweet times you had or are having
You are not that bad, kiddy,. It's the genes. It's not your fault to be stubborn. Still it will be your fault to let it leave you unhappy..
As for you, you can train yourself. HOW??
You have more than one option:
1) If you are a believer, you can read the Holy Book. This will leave you at ease and relaxed. From the Book you will get to know some good examples that will refine both your heart and mind.
2) Read romantic stories.
3) Read children stories.
4) Look for a baby or a child to take care of. This will teach you to be tolerant. This will help you try to think of others bearing in mind their points of view rather than yours.
God help you, dear.
I myself used to be too stubborn. I found that it would destroy me. I kept telling myself how fool I was; Ikept training myself in trying to be a bit understanding. Little by little it worked.

Answer 3

Yes, you feed off each other's energy. Communication is very important. If you don't talk and just walk away or ignore each other then you have a serious problem................Besides make-up SEX IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously though, you must remember that one person can't be right all the time, even though you may argue, listen to what the other is saying. And before you go to bed at night think if it is really that important to carry hard feelings on to the next day!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even if you have to be the stronger one & smooth it over most of the time, things just aren't that important to ruin LOVE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Answer 4

I think you guys can, it just it's important to learn to step down, and learn to let go of certain things. It doesn't mean you're hiding your ideas but really, take his advice. Maybe sometimes you don't agree, but pretend you do. many times, guys just like the feeling of winning because they feel you respect their ideas. If you really want a relationship in long run, step down and think about things before you say it. Because there are certain things that you say can never take back esepcially whe arguments comes up and you say things you'll regret. Keep arguing will not help in anything. If you know both of you are stubborn and you really like your bf to a point you want to keep this going, just calm yourself down and think before you argue back.

Answer 5

Oh definitely. Make up sex, after an argument, will help too.
Two people that are stubborn just have to know when to pick their battles. Both can't always be so stubborn and refuse to change. If they can learn to compromise, it will work out.

Answer 6

You can't change him, but you can teach by example. I picked my battles carefully. Start giving in on the small things, and do it with a smile. He will notice sooner or later. Then when the important things came up, I would point out how I had tried to be considerate of him, so could he please try to see my side.

Answer 7

no. if u love each other it is pleasant to give up and make a compromise with each other. if u re like to stubborn donkeys u obviously think that other part should give in. it wouldn't work

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10
