Constant fighting in a relationship is always a terrible sign. But a little constructive arguing every now and then is actually pretty healthy. Now, how can all that crying and yelling be good, you ask? Here’s 7 reasons:
#1. It helps you grow as a person.
An argument doesn’t necessarily have to be negative, it simply indicates that you both have different views and opinions. If anything, it helps open your mind to your partner’s perspective.
#2. You become more aware of each other’s weaknesses.
When you fight, you’re vulnerable. You learn how far is too far, you learn what sets off your partner, you learn more about each other.
#3. It teaches you how to communicate better with your partner.
Because you can’t have an argument without being honest. Remember though that respect is the constant variable in every conversation.
#4. You learn to compromise.
It’s not about who wins or loses the argument. Fighting teaches you to reach a middle ground or agree to disagree.
#5. It helps to keep things interesting.
Now, we’re not telling you to pick a fight with your partner everyday, but let’s be honest, how boring would it be if you both just got away with whatever you wanted all the time?
#6. You wouldn’t fight if you didn’t care.
Consider an argument a blessing in disguise.
#7. It helps to clear out negative energy and emotions.
Bottling up feelings may only make things worse. Trust that a healthy argument will make you both feel so much better afterwards.
