Me and my girlfriend have been together for a little over seven months. Over these seven months we have grown closer and closer every day. We love each other more then any one will ever know, you can see it in the way we look at each other... The only thing is we argue a lot, and it is usually way past that point where it should stop. We usually both end up saying things we regret and she usually ends up saying that she hates me and doesnt want to be with me any more. A few times i have lost my temper and ended up throwing things in her direction(but not at her)......But last night..was the first time that an arguement started and i kept cool. I kept myself from raising my voice, i kept myself from talking roughly, and talking like i was irritated, and i just said what needed to be said and nothing more. Last night was the first night that i felt good after an arguement was over. We talked it out and i gave her her space and time to cool down. For some reason because of last night i feel one step closer to her eternal love.

gege808, you're growing in your relationship and learning the most important key in a healthy relationship, communication. How was her response to you keeping your cool? You've learned the secret to a successful arguement, what comes out of your mouth needs to be productive and not meant to inflame. I think the reason you feel closer to her after this arguement is that you weren't hurtful and destructive and you were proud of that mature behavior. Keep up the good work!

its great you feel that way its good your taking it in the right direction! for example me and my bf we have been together for 4 months and it seems like 4 years and its weird cause we dont fight AT ALL!!! we never got into a fight and i hope not to but if she feels the same way you feel about her then that enternal love will come quick but take it slow!
