When youโre in the honeymoon phase of your marriage there is no argument that will derail your love because the feelings are so intense and the connection is so passionate.
If you are fortunate enough to get through the honeymoon phase as most married couples do, there are 11 arguments that almost every marriage goes through if you want to last.
1) The What are You Doing Fight?
This is probably the first fight you will have after the honeymoon phase. This is the fight were the intense love has worn off and the idiosyncracies of your partner starts to wear on your nerves.
2) The Proving Your Right Fight!
This type of fight starts when each coupleโs views on the relationship from their own point-of-view. Each person will expend tremendous amounts of energy making sure their point is heard, but usually, nothing gets resolved.
3) The Youโre Nagging and Iโm not listening Fight.
The type of fight occurs when a โWhat Are You Doing?โ Fight goes unresolved. The frustrated partner then ramps up the emotions to the point where the other partner tends to ignore it.
4) The When are You Going To Do The( Insert Chore Here) Fight!
When household responsibilities that were once 50/50 in a relationship have now become one-sided. This fight is usually an undercurrent of what is really going on. Itโs about the expectations of the relationship and feeling appreciated.
5) The He/She Better Do Right By My Birthday Fight!
When the special time to show appreciation turns into the same old boring celebration. This fight usually occurs because no matter what, Partner B does, he/she will never meet the expectations of Partner A.
6) The Bad Reputation Fight!
