For many couples, they have so many issues of contention stored up that it would not be difficult. What we usually find though is that couples have already gone through the week and discovered that they <I>can</I> stop themselves and so that they can start up again - if they wish. Many don't. And if they do, it's different because they know now that they don't have to fight. As for whether they will store up more things then usual to fight over . . . doesn't often happen. The reason is that the task interrupts their cycle of fighting. Such interruptions almost always cause a couple to stop fighting as much - at least in the short term. <BR/><BR/>Jacquie: Thanks for your honesty. Trying it out will work as long as one person sticks to the plan. The thing about fighting is that it always takes two people to make it happen. And yes, I wouldn't do it on Lost Night, that would be just wrong. Good luck in scheduling some fights!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15292824227963056711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269648634709183279.post-65201666704736465222009-03-04T06:56:00.000-08:002009-03-04T06:56:00.000-08:00Bob and I were just talking about this. How timel...Bob and I were just talking about this. How timely! Bob and I are totally in a rut with fighting in front of the kids. Bob and I have always been "fighters." I'd like to share this with Bob and see if we could pull it off...but Wednesday nights are bad for fighting, LOST is on!! :o) I guess some people schedule a date night...<BR/><BR/>Ok everyone, now you know.<BR/><BR/>JacquieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269648634709183279.post-8199231111818500342009-03-04T00:51:00.000-08:002009-03-04T00:51:00.000-08:00i totally thought this post was about FLIGHTS unti...i totally thought this post was about FLIGHTS until i saw the picture. shocking combo, wouldn't you say? maybe air canada has new entertainment? anyway, i read the post and found it really interesting. my question is, wouldn't it be kind of hard to start a fight just b/c the clock strikes 7. i mean, maybe if you've been bottling it up all week it wouldn't be, but i can see the beginning of the scheduled fight being potentially "fake" and wonder if "fake" things would come through (emotions expresed, words said, etc.) wouldn't that be a danger, or even worse that one would look for more things than usual to "fight about" during the week because they know wednesday night is coming up and they want to be armed?Daynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747660515087075906noreply@blogger.com
