There is understanding, there is love, there is discussion, there is compromise, and there are agreements in a healthy relationship. We know ALL about that or we have at least read about it. But did you know, sometimes even disagreements can be solid indicators of a strong and healthy relationship? Of course it doesn’t have to be a full blown fight or an argument. But occasional difference of opinion and a disagreement over it only means that you are both comfortable enough with each other to say what’s on your mind. Here’s a list of disagreements that actually indicates the “healthiness” of your relationship but always remember that it all boils down to how productive YOU make it-

The time you spend with your partner is the time you invest in them. If your partner feels like you are not taking out enough time for them, they have all the rights to complain. And this, my friend, is supposed to be a very healthy argument. If your partner makes a plea for more time and connection, it means they are willing to convey their most vulnerable feelings to you- the feeling of longingness and need. A disagreement and an eventual discussion on this can help you two come closer and understand each other’s needs.

How You Communicate

Smooth communication and good understanding doesn’t come naturally in any given relationship. It is something to be worked on and put efforts into. So if you notice a gap in communication and if you feel like you both don’t really understand each other, it is best to have a discussion. An argument over not understanding each other and not communicating properly only means that you both WANT to talk and understand each other. (This is great!) Now, after knowing these differences and talking about it, you can both put extra efforts into understanding each other’s style of communication.

Here we are at the most regular disagreements! If these disagreements are not happening in your relationship, there could be something wrong with it. These disagreements not only show your desire to spend quality time with each other but also show how comfortable you are with voicing your preference in front of your partner. Now all you have to do is convince each other. The trick is in making sure you both get your wins time to time.

Now if you disagree with this article, it does not really mean we have a change at a relationship. (Just clarifying) Or do we? 😛
