The Sharp Gentleman: Style | Relationships | Dating | Confidence | Entrepreneurship

Why would you want to know how to fight with your spouse? Because it's a natural part of building a healthy, long-lasting relationship. Marriage in America has become something of a joke. Well, not really a joke – more of a statistical mess. Approximately half of all marriages in the US end in divorce. Clearly, we take commitment very seriously.

There are many reasons marriages end, including:

• adultery (I wanted my cake...and some other cakes too)
• finances (I wanted more cake, but we always fought over our cake budget)
• life goals (She wanted lots of little cakes running around, but I hate cakes)
• sex goals (I like to eat cake and she can't stand it)
• and so many more...

As a relationship coach, I notice communication between people a lot more critically than most. I listen to the words, the tone, and the body language couples use when speaking and/or arguing, and there are several tell-tale signs that a relationship is doomed. Rather than bring you down with all the reasons marriages fail, let's explore how to fight with your spouse without ruining your marriage.
