Spouse A: It's still not working. wor-king. Spouse B: Well! For Peter's sake, can't you ever do any-thing....(Stomp, any-thing....(Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp. Fiddle, fiddle, fiddle). Well, I guess it's broken. (Glares at the offending partner part-ner with a look that says, "Why did you come in here and deliberately de-liberately break this?) This is the perfect example of an argument you don't need to have. Spouse B knows perfectly per-fectly well that Spouse A isn't going to go into a room and deliberately break something, but this little scenario gets acted out all the time with couples. I was talking to a friend the other day about something my husband did, and they said, "Well, that's just marriage." And that started me thinking about all the things we grumble about that are "just marriage". Another argument I particularly partic-ularly like is the "Hunt for Who Did It." Spouse A: Who did this? Chorus: I didn't! Spouse A: Well, somebody must have done it. It didn't just break itself. Did you do this ? (They then proceed pro-ceed through every family member until the villain is routed out and condemned). The problem is, half the time the villain doesn't even know he did it. Who cares who did it? Does it fix it to find out who did it? The person who did it is probably not capable of fixing it anyway. Another fun one is "When Did It Happen?" Spouse A: We got that right after so-and-so got back from Vict Nam. Spouse B: No we didn't. We got it later, right after we moved. Spouse A: No, we didn't. I remember, we were in the old house. Spouse B: No, I remember buying it This can go on forever with variations including how much it costs, who was with you when you got it, etc. This argument ar-gument holds for anything that happened in the past that both spouses remember differently. Directions to places, gossip, anything. The thing that people forget is that your chances of being right are always only 50. I've never seen a couple who have this argument where both spouses don't think the other one is the one who forgets for-gets all the time. Another argument not worth having is anything you nag about. People who don't fix things, clean things, lose weight, spend too much money, mon-ey, don't pay enough attention to you, and talk too much, are never going to be fixed by nagging. You can nag until you're blue in the face, and all they'll do is dig in their heels. It becomes an issue of self-respect self-respect your opinion vs my opinion about what constitutes "too much." It's just not worth having an argument about. You either have to fix it (find a mutually agreeable solution) or get used to it. That's why marriage is such a test. You have to get used to so many things that are just unbelievable to your way of thinking. Another fruitless pursuit is "their" family. If you're a stepparent, step-parent, you will have already known the joy of days when "their" kids are so spoiled you can't imagine what they must Carol Ann Robinson i I .'iff I Who'd have thought you would ever reach the ripe old age ' 40!

And if it's in-laws, well, there is just no end to the way that people can come up with different solutions to the same problems. Families are like snowflakcs--no two alike. You can't change them by' arguing. There's good example, there's staying home from things, and there's getting used to it. Those are the choices. Then there arc the unique arguments. We have an interesting inter-esting argument about whether or not rabbits can be house broken. He says no, I say yes. The rabbit lives outside in a hutch. I used to love watching my in-laws argue about who remembered re-membered something right. They NEVER gave in to each other. My husband always gets all dewy eyed and says they'll be sorry after the other partner is dead. I don't think so. I think they'll just be sorry they never won the fight. school, Feb. 5 to 9.
