[QUOTE="Larry Morgan, post: 1318741, member: 4676"] My GF and I will have been together for 3 years this November. We've been living together for about a year now. No major problems so far. Sure we've had disagreements, but I don't get the whole "knock down, drag out" fights people talk about. Most of the time its because they're serving their own agenda first, instead of considering what's best for the relationship. For example, saying something subtly mean or hurtful just to try to prove a point, when in reality it adds nothing to the discussion and does nothing to bring you closer to an agreement with your significant other. It's tough to do when you're upset, but I think a lot of people could benefit from asking themselves the true meaning behind something before saying it. Are you saying it to better the relationship, or are you just saying it out of spite or to feel superior in a disagreement. [/QUOTE]
