For one reason or another, I've never had a traditional (aka "normal") relationship and my parents weren't the best role models. Could someone out there please tell me the acceptable amount of fighting that occurs in a happy/secure relationship? I'm not talking about violent fights, more like disagreements that may last a day or two.
I was once told that if a couple agreed on everything, it was doomed from the start. Someone would always be giving in and that person would implode one day for not standing up for their opinion. Now I'm confused...
What exactly is the acceptable range? One disagreement every week/month?
I'm seriously considering moving in with someone and I'm terrified that I may make the wrong decision. He lives across the country... Maybe I'm just trying to talk my commitaphobic self out of it. Help!
