Do you think getting into arguments and working through them makes a relationship stronger or do you think memories of things said will hinder the relationship in the future?
 
So don't say damaging things. Arguments don't have to be fights. And yeah, I think working through issues (often requiring an argument) makes the relationship stronger.

Agreed. Arguments are fine. Fights aren't.

Argument = difference of opinions, usually positive result, angry makeup sex optional.
Fight = name-calling, usually negative, and you're on the couch for sure!

Yeah... what if it's too late for that?

EDIT: And no this thread isn't related to anything going on in my life right now 😛

Then you back down, apologize for saying inappropriate things in the heat of anger, ask forgiveness for saying them. You have to take the first step on this, not wait or expect the other person to do so. Explain that you want to learn to argue without using accusatory words.

Between two mature adults, yes, it should make the relationship stronger. Course, there are always those people who are so non-confrontational that if you try to resolve something with them they think you're "picking a fight." That always pissed me off.

Unless you want them out, then you kick it up a notch, but they don't leave. EVER.

Argh.

Don't yell at your dog whilst drinking with a jar of peanut butter around, you'll hate yourself in the morning.
