do married couples fight a lot.?

Answer 1

It depends on the couple, my husband and I do not fight. We don't agree with each other on everything, but we allow each other to have opinions and we compromise. I know married couples who do fight all of the time which causes strain on the children and on their general happiness, and I know couples who have been married for 20 + years who never fight, so to ask such a general question isn't really accurate.

Answer 2

Yes they do. We have been married for almost 11 yrs and had some whoopers. The trick is to learn how to fight. I told my husband one I am sorry but I had to get it off my chest and you were the only one here instead of yelling at the kids. He said that was excepibe knowing I was not really mad at him but I had to get it out. It is perfectly normal to fight after all you like in the same house and see each other everyday and every minute and if both spouses don't have their own outlet or hobby the fighting can get worst.. Now after all this time we say snippy little coments at each other or just give the other crap and some times it just turns into a joke in the end. The most important part is either one is always willing to say I am sorry and it is very important that what ever was bother that spouse to begin comes out so they can talk through it together, somethings it is not even that bad once it is spoken and out there. Fighting should never be about putting the other in his or her place in a marrage they are equal and to make it work fighting or not it has to stay that way.

Answer 3

Some couples fight every minute on the minute! Others fight often, some have knock down drag outs...
My hubby and I started off with some arguments maybe weekly. As years passed we learned how to counter balance each other. Whomever is the bomb, the other one is the defuser. We almost never fight anymore. Any fights we do have are really minor arguments and major blowouts only happen about once every 4 years.
It depends on the couple.

Answer 4

Depends on the couple. They all tend to fight more freely as they have been married longer, as there are more opportunities that come up and they are more comfortable with one another. But some married couples fight frequently because it is the nature of their relationship and some rarely ever do...it all depends. As long as they fight fair, it really does not hurt anything.

Answer 5

Some do and some don't but they do all have one thing in common they are not longer in love when they get married. Some people realize this in weeks and get divorced and some people lie to themselves for years. Marriage even destroys soul mates. If you are thinking of getting married take an honest look at all the married couples you know!!!

Answer 6

I had to laugh when I read this! My wife and I have been married for fourteen years and we've never had a fight. By which I mean she gets angry and I just agree with her. Drives her crazy but she knows that I won't be part of it because as she says" I explode and he remains calm". That's what she said at my 50th birthday in October. By the time she's calmed down, it's usually forgotten about ( always something that has nothing to do with me). Whether or not it's a good thing, I don't know.

Answer 7

As far as i no, i feel that couples do fight alot, it can be healthy for a realtionship, but if fighting continues and happend to regularly then can start to be a problem. This is from my experience with family and friends, but im not married yet.

Answer 8

ok, i'm talking about a happy couple here.
even with happy couples, there is always a fight once in a while, it's unavoidable. what makes a good couple is whether they are able get through together and find a way to make it work. i hope this is the answer you were looking for.

Answer 9

Some do, and some don't. I've been married seven years and never physically fought with my wife. We have had very few arguments, maybe less than ten, and we never raise our voices to each other. My friend and his wife, of about five years, have about ten arguments a day. They yell and scream at each other and sometimes hit each other, but only when they're drunk (says something about drinking too much).

Answer 10

Depends on the couple.
Depends on the culture, upbringing, attitudes of people involved. Some people shut up/close off when angry, threatened, whatever. Others shout and air the issue.
Any marriage to survive requires that both parties work at it. You have to be committed to each other and the marriage to survive the trials and tribulations life throws your way. You have to find a way to discuss and resolve differences for the marriage to survive.
