My wife and I fought over fabric softener, of all things, tonight. I think she uses too much, and she thinks I don't use enough. Now, I probably don't--souvenir of being allergic to most fabric softeners, until the ones for "sensitive" skin started getting made--but I now think it makes clothes feel slimy, and anyway, I do the damn laundry. I still can't believe we fought over it.
So I'm hoping we're not the only same-sex couple who gets bogged down in trivialities. How stupid can you and your beloved get? :-)

LOL Welcome to domestic bliss!!
Those little, stupid arguments will happen in EVERY couple given enough time, stress and close proximity!
And yes, my partner and I have those too!!
Tonight it was because she volunteered to do the shopping and instead of bringing home lettuce, she bought cabbage! YUCK!!
I can't make salad with cabbage!
(well I can...but not the kind of salad I was going to make)
She had her cell phone, she could have called if she was unsure about the difference between cabbage and lettuce! So, I had to go exchange it...
But as soon as I got back she had already put away all the groceries and started prepping for diner...so I couldn't stay upset.

Sorry that nobody will believe this, but we're one of those rare couples who don't get into fights. Both of us can get peevish and testy at times about things, but after 11 years we know exactly when to give each other space and let each other get our little hissy fits over with. Once it passes, we're fine.
I try to preserve as much peace in the valley as I can, because I got so sick and tired of all the drama my family had in the house when I was growing up, so I believe in talking and working things out, not having screaming matches over a lot of stupid s!!t.

Unfortunately, the worst fights are always the stupidest! For instance, we fought over toilet paper. Constantly. As in, sometimes I was too lazy to change the roll and just left the new one on the counter, and when I did change it, the paper "flowed" the wrong way. My partner called me out on it, and was really angry that I sometimes forgot to take the old roll off and put on the new one. Needless to say... we weren't together much longer after we moved in. Sometimes, you just can't suck up their little habits =) You're not the only ones!

We fought about a week ago because my wife wouldn't go to the doctor. She went out with some of her nephews and came back with a broken arm.
My father's a doctor so I kept insisting that we went over to his house so he could cast the arm, she wouldn't. I got really angry... I could have spared the fight by just bringing my father over from the start...

What order the dishes are washed up and how they are stacked in the drainer. It just annoys me I like to be organised so mine is always neat and I don't need anyone to wipe up, but how she does it it's always disorganised and she asks me to wipe because she's run out of space in the drainer. I can't help but say "well if you'd stacked it this way and washed these first you wouldn't have had a problem." It goes on and on because neither of us will give up. Oh well the joys of being in a relationship...

nicely, seems such as you fairly care approximately her! undergo in recommendations a courting could be a 2 way ingredient, if there's a undertaking between you 2 then it takes the two one in each and every of you to repair it. whilst issues get calm, ask her to take it sluggish and sit down and chat together with her a sprint to straighten issues out for the wellbeing of your courting. that is going to be good for the the two one in each and every of you. do no longer attempt to make issues complicated, or think of or if as a complicated ingredient, which will merely make issues worse. hiya, who's nicely-known with of, according to hazard she's on her month-to-month pms!

About two weeks ago we fought about our dogs. I wanted to walk them all the way around the block and she wanted to only walk them to the corner. Well she ended up staying home and I walked them around the block and I was mad at her when I got home but we got over it about an hour later :) But our little fights don't really bother me because they don't happen often and when they do, we don't argue we just don't talk until one of us says were sorry. And I hate to admit it but it is usually her because I'm stubborn and I hate saying I'm sorry even if I was the wrong one :)

we argued this morning over what kind of yogurt to buy. I like it with real fruit and she likes the "dessert" type. And somehow we can't buy both!
