klwalton, an article called "Why Marriages Fail" (http://www.shrinktalk.net/archives/why_marriages_fail_1.phtml) contains the following quote:couples that don't ever fight eventually don't have sex either. Why? They are both forms of passion. If you give up one form of intensity you'll ultimately leave the other as well.Is this true in your experience?

Date: 31 Mar 2009 08:06 pm (UTC)It's been true for me in most relationships including my current one.
We get along great, rarely fight, but we rarely have sex, either. That's mostly due to me taking anti depressants and being a low libido person to begin with.
I realized years ago that I view fighting as a way to be close to someone. My mom and I fought like crazy and my dad wouldn't fight with anyone and would try to get us to stop. We ignored him.
