Fight With Your Spouse or Die
Fighting is actually healthy. Remember the last debate you indulged in? It helped you and your spouse air issues and reach compromises. Sure there was a bit of yelling and sobbing- but that’s better than keeping quiet and boiling in resentment.Recent studies indicate that the talkative who bluster a lot actually live longer than the quiet who smolder. Silence is a sham form peace. The lack of raised voices doesn’t equate to a lack of raised emotions. Keep those emotions seething for a long time and you raise the stress chemicals in your blood: cortisol, cholesterol and all those nasty -ols bury you. Literally.
So next time something debatable comes up, speak your mind. Fight a bit. It’ll do you and your spouse a world of good.
