Default Relationships: Disagreements and talking about them

When you and your SO have an disagreement or need to have a serious discussion ( i.e. one of you is pissed about something the other supposedly did) would you rather talk about it immediately even if its not convenient or just put it off until its convenient?

I hold a lot in and don't like to fight. The S/O on the other hand loves conflict. I usually let it go in one ear and out the other. When I'm pushed into a corner, someone usually comes out crying and apologizing, and it's not me.

Settle it immediately if possible. Don't ever go to bed angry with your spouse.

Get it over with now. That way she can get over losing the battle before it’s time to go to bed and have sex. She is never right and she knows it.












I like sleeping on the couch a lot as you guys can see.

Ask any married guy - the last words he wants to hear from his wife are "We have to talk".

I like to let it boil and fester until it's a much bigger deal than it was.

With the lady I currently spend time with, we only have minor annoyances... my lack of desire to plan any future events before the day thereof; her lack of situational awareness (meaning, I have to snag her shoulder to keep her from walking out into traffic about once a week - not sure how she's lived this long).

Our disputes are short and immediate.

I never get angry really. It takes alot for me to get pissed. And as all of you remember my award winning post about how I think we all evolved from Apes. And how that means women have ape genes and I use that to build up the confidence to say hi. Well whenever my chic argues with me I just laugh and remember that's the ape in her that's talking. And I like Apes.

Nah, we talk almost immediately, and when she is off base or on a topic I feel it's 'HER department'....I just start a little high piched teeth closed whine and let my lips move, making a murrr merr, marrr type sound like a cartoon maybe do for sound effects.....she get the message that it's all cool and I could care less....

I take care of the ape shit, she takes care of the hearts and flowers....

she does the food/cooking I do the dishes....we are alive, that simple...

Truth. Not limited to just married guys and wives either.
Same could be said for ANY guy in a relationship and their girlfriend.

I've had enough failures in this that I can reasonably speak from experience. It all really depends on the people in the relationship. I've held it in and got labelled as passive aggressive and also flagged the issue immediately and got called a nit picker. There's really no set rule.

Our disagreement conversations always start with "let's talk - now". We're usually calm during the discussions - occasionally it gets heated. What drives her crazy is that I always maintain the same cool composure and she's a screamer ( during too ).
