Fighting With a bf/gf

Having a bf/gf can be fun and exciting, but sometimes relationships can be hard work. When you spend a lot of time with someone and become very close, all of the person’s best qualities as well as their worst qualities are revealed. Disagreements within a relationship are normal and healthy — but can also be very upsetting and stressful at times. If you are fighting with your bf/gf remember to:

  • Keep it clean. Being close to someone means knowing their insecurities and therefore knowing how to hurt them the most. Avoid using this knowledge against the other person.
  • Keep it private. Having a fight in the middle of school, via text messages, or online can make your fight public knowledge. This can create added pressures about making up or breaking up from friends or acquaintances.
  • Talk it out. Sit down and allow each other a chance to talk about your feelings and wishes for the future. This is not a time to defend or attack, but rather a time to listen and learn.
  • If you decide to make-up, it is important to put the fight behind you as well as any grudges, resentments or hard feelings. This will allow you to move forward as a stronger couple.
  • If you decide to breakup, make it as painless as possible. You may be hurt, angry, relieved or devastated. No matter what, do not resort to verbally attacking or harassing the other person. Remember the good times and take the high road.
