The Silent Killer
It's not ok to be silent in your relationship. Counselors and psychologists say one of the biggest signs of damage in a relationship is when the couples say they don't fight. Couples are often mistaken, thinking a lack of fighting means they are doing something right. When in reality, they're not working on their issues. They choose to keep silent and not say what's wrong in order to prevent a fight. As long as you fight in a healthy way (no screaming and actually resolve it) it's beneficial to your relationship.[tweetthis twitter_handles="@almstindianwife" display_mode="box"]"Fighting in a healthy way can actually be the sign of a healthy relationship."[/tweetthis]
