Argument Necessary and Healthy
An argument is a heated discussion. Some couples brag that they never argue. That’s an inferior marriage. In arguing, both get to put forward what is important to him or her. In many relationships it is one who makes all the decisions because he, and it usually is a he, is the only one who gets to express his views and desires. I have yet to do couples counseling where I didn’t have to teach them to argue. There are Rules of Engagement in argument just as there are in actual wars where guns are fired. Not calling the other ugly names is one of them. When one resorts to calling the other a mean or ugly name, the argument is over and the fight has begun.
