Relationship problems
There is no such thing as a perfect relationship; they all go through bad times. Even Posh and Becks, Elton and David sometimes have arguments about how they’re going to spend their next million. When a couple does have a row it can be down to a number of things such as poor communication or maybe sexual differences.
Rows
There’s something about our partner that’s bugging us so what do we do? We can sit down and talk to them about it or we can have a great big shouting match. And maybe slam a few doors. Having a row is a normal part of any relationship, and as long as it doesn’t get violent it can help to get disagreements out in the open. But on the whole it usually doesn’t solve any problems.
Talk through problems
It’s always much better to deal with any problem involving your partner by talking to them about it honestly and openly. Unless your partner’s psychic they’re not going to know how you feel about the relationship – it’s up to you to tell them.
If there has been a huge argument it’s important that, when it’s finished, you both don’t pretend that it never happened. It’s a good idea that you think about the row and what caused it. And then if you talk to your partner about how you feel it can help sort the problem out.
Help
Some people need help with their relationship. Organisations like Relate can help. Relate also see gay couples.
