When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

Seriously, how many people actually walk away from a fight? Or do you stand your ground and argue back?

Men do that. While women.....(Not married so wouldn't know but just saying generally)

both... and simultaneously.

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

Depends on the situation.....if it is a very serious issue and he is wrong...ill fight back, but if it is not worth fighting abt or I am wrong, I'd rather shut up!!!

I believe blowing up just makes things worse so I try to stay calm and so does he. Eventually it all gets better with some silent treatments :-)

wait for the spouse to yell as much as possible and the cool down, till then probably shutup and walk off.

And once everything is cool catch them off guard and BLOW UP :D

though am not married ye but i'll blow up i guess..i cant shut my mouth wen am angry or wen sum1 else is mad at me...

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other…do you shut up or blow up?

I argue till the blood dries up in my body :snooty:

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

Not married but obviously I come across such situations with ppl off and on. For me my relationship with the person is more imp than anything else. thats what makes me flexible and more tolerant. coz over an argument if I lose him/her or even his/her trust one me then i am a loser. Iwait for the right time to discuss it again.

I would agree with all of the above... especially the last one!

Let the spouse let off steam, keep quiet, then STAY quiet. This will give spouse time to reflect on his behaviour which will not seem unreasonable to him compared with your calm demeanour... then wait for the apology ;)

... Unless of course u really have something to shout about, then stand your ground and fight your corner!

Depends on situation sometimes it is necessary to give answers but seriously first I let hubs speak his heart out and when he is calm then I speak and catch him off guard.:D But fights happen rarely between us :D

I don't know but I only see unmarried people answering most of the questions, may be they are curious and they try to look for answers too.

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

I don't have the capability of shutting up.

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

Cba with arguments anymore.. No point, petty ones serious ones, Gets you no where by screaming and shouting, I used to be the type were i wud blow up i would scream and shout, Yet that would only lead in everything messing up, and when you do finally cool down and wanna be 'fine' it cant because the other persons still mad about how you spoke. Forget it.. Now if something has happend i'd rather cool down myself, and talk about it. Seriously... The best way to get your feelings/opinions across to someone is to simply talk about it in a calm manner and really express how it made you felt.

Mostly I argue and stay there untill he gets quiet lolz, but sometimes when I can't hold my tears I just walk away :P

argue all the way , :snooty:

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

i just cant shutup..so i would fight back

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other...do you shut up or blow up?

nops i dont arguee coz it makes the situation worse so .....when every thing gets cool down i do speak for my self but that is also like in disscussing manner no fights not at all.......i cant see my hubby naraz from me....:(

Re: When you have a fight with your significant other…do you shut up or blow up?

I too argue all the way … though its not the best strategy in the world and makes more of a mess then clear it :vivo:
