Fighting Poll

Nanner22 · August 2009

So last night at the G2G we had some interesting talks about fighting. So I'm interested to hear more from you other girls: Are you a fair fighter? What is your fight 'style'? Share a funny fight story. Do you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'? Do you fight often? If so what is it usually about? What's 1 (or 2) things that will set you off really quick?

I am feeling very silly because I saw the post about 'GTG tomorrow' yesterday and assumed - (i.e. didn't look at post date) that the GTG was today. And so I e-mailed erin and told her I'd be there after I dropped my husband at the airport. I would have been very pissed to show up in Katy this evening and find myself alone at the table.

Are you a fair fighter? Nope, I usally go below the belt. Sometimes I look back and think wow I should have not said that, but if you dish it then you should take it. I am not one to start a fight though.What is your fight 'style'? DirtyShare a funny fight story. Hmm fist fight story? I got "beat" up by a girl in high school that was way bigger than I (of course thats when I was still a thin girl lol). It was friday after a football game and she told everyone how I was sooo hurt. Turns out Monday she came to school all bruised in the face, and I didn't have a scratch! What what!Do you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'?

Fair fighter- typically. I dont usually bring up old dirt or anything Fight style- I get the last word. Funny fight story- Josh and I recently got into a bitchfest over his dog sleeping in the bed. I hate it.. he loves it. I end the fight saying whatever I hope your dog dies. And then leaving. haha it was so stupid. We usually don't go to bed angry. Occasionally when we argue its because we are so tired. And then going to bed is really the only helpful thing at that point. Fight often? Nope. Not real fights. We do bicker though. But we didn't when we lived together. Just recently since we moved back in with our parents. Quick set offs? For him- his dumb dog For me- when he is late to things without calling with a good excuse.

Are you a fair fighter? Nope, I never take a minute and really think about things before I start fighting. What is your fight 'style'? For some reason I like to drag it on for hours. Share a funny fight story: I started a fight with him because he didn't turn the shower head down and when I started the shower the next morning the whole floor was wet. He's such a boy! Do you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'? We actually got in a fight last night and Matt can go to sleep without a problem. I can not. I hate that he does that!Do you fight often? If so what is it usually about? Not really. We usually fight about him not listening to me or we're just getting on eachother's nerves. What's 1 (or 2) things that will set you off really quick? When he ignores me.

Are you a fair fighter? eh yeah id say so. What is your fight 'style'? dramatic...tears- if i think i wont get my way i bust out the water works and then FI says sorry and I winShare a funny fight story. We dont fight often but we had a fight one time over something stupid, i dont even remember what, and right in the middle of the fight he pulls the car over to the side of the road and says "i think ur birth control is making you crazy, do you need a hug?" so i break down crying (for no reason), we hug, the end. not that funny....but now that i look back i realize how crazy i was when i was on the pill. lolDo you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'? we've been together for over 2 years and we have never gone to sleep angry-there have been times when we have hung up the phone intending to go to sleep, but one of us will always call the other in the middle of the night and say were sorryDo you fight often? If so what is it usually about? nope, if we do fight its b/c im being hormonalWhat's 1 (or 2) things that will set you off really quick? nothing really, im pretty easy going unless its my time of the month then i get upset about everythingwell obviously i shouldnt have taken this quiz- good thing is FI and I dont fight often, bad thing is I'm one of the reasons why guys blame our time of the month for everything.

Fair Fighter: No way. I always say and do things that i KNOW will push FI over the edge. Fight Style: DRAMA, both of us. Yelling, screaming, throwing things, stopping the car so one person (usually me) can get out and walk home, and we draw it out for hours. Fuuny Story: lol, way too many to count. A short one: I was eating dinner and FI was yaking about something and was pissing me off. He said something that really made me mad so i chunked my egg roll at him and hit him square in the face. lolz Going to bed: I go to bed angry all the time. Do you fight often: Yes, usually every weekend. Usually about something i have done. Things that set me off: Interrupting me, not accepting my answer as truth, telling me im stupid.

Are you a fair fighter? Ha ha... definitely not! I always bring up the past, and I always say things I regret. What is your fight 'style'? I want to talk about it and fight about it until we make up, I canNOT let anything go until it's resolved. Share a funny fight story. We played a game of spades with another couple. It was such a tough and long game that we continued it over several different nights. We were neck and neck and lost at the very end and got into a huge fight about it. He actually stormed out of the house! Our friends had to convince John to come back inside and make-up with me. Looking back, we laugh at how incredibly dumb we were to get into a real fight about a card game. Do you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'? I canNOT go to sleep angry but John likes time to cool-down and have "space"... that is our biggest problem - not the fight itself but deciding and agreeing on when to deal with the issue. Do you fight often? If so what is it usually about? No. Early in our relationship, we would get into a fight and it would last for hours. Now we usually make up in 10 minutes if we do fight about something. What's 1 (or 2) things that will set you off really quick? When I "feel" ignored... in quotes because he is never ignoring me, just being quiet, and my needy self feels like I'm being ignored

Oh! I forgot to respond to poll Are you a fair fighter? VeryWhat is your fight 'style'? DiplomaticShare a funny fight story. One day we were playing a silly board game with a group of friends. All other couples played as a team even though it was an individual game. DH (FI at the time) played not only as an individual but against me. And when he finally won the game, he hung it over my head. I took it so personally. To him it was just a game. To me it was an unkind display of bad sportmanship on his part. The argument lasted for well over five hours. In hind sight, it was a VERY stupid argument. Board game? Really?Do you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'? I do. We always resolve our disputes. Do you fight often? If so what is it usually about? Hardly. Once every four months or so, I think. I can't even remember what for.What's 1 (or 2) things that will set you off really quick? Not any more, but I used to get so mad when he'd be running late and not call to let me know where the hell he was or what was going on. I ask because I care - dammit!

So last night at the G2G we had some interesting talks about fighting. So I'm interested to hear more from you other girls: Are you a fair fighter? As fair as one can be while fightingWhat is your fight 'style'? Say my piece and retreatShare a funny fight story. I asked FI why he leaves two fans (stand and box) on all the time. He said to keep the air moving. So one day, being the energy conservator that I am, I turned one off and left the other on. FI totally freaked out on me and accused me of turning the one off just to spite him. Even though I told him numerous times that I just didn't think it took two fans to move the air. I don't touch his fans anymore, but this still drives me freakin crazy. Come to think of it, I don't really think this story is funny, just annoying, ha!Do you you believe in 'don't go to sleep angry' or 'sleep on it'? Depends on how fresh the fight is, if it's close to bedtime, I'll go to bed, or fall asleep on the couch while watching tvDo you fight often? If so what is it usually about? See belowWhat's 1 (or 2) things that will set you off really quick? When FI leaves a mess in the kitchen that I've just cleaned, when he leaves his dirty clothes all over the bedroom floor, when he doesn't accept what I say as truth, (mrunner, I'm with you on this one!)
