    The two of you need to sit down somewhere that you are both comfortable. Not where your living because it's too easy for one of you to get up and walk away. You need to be somewhere else where you can talk. Maybe just a table at a simple restaurant.

    Be positive, talk about the good things you two have such as your Son. Talk about your wedding day and the dates you used to have. Keep it positive then slowly get into what the issues are between the two of you. YOu both need to be able to express your feelings and listen to each other. Discuss this part before you start. You both need to agree to this.

    If you do, the two of you may start to get things going again in the right direction. I wish you and your family luck!

    I would need to know what you were fighting over before I could give you an answer. If the arguments are truly over nothing. You guys need to work together to ixnay these arguments when you first notice they are starting. But I've never really known any couples who truly argue about nothing. You must feel that arguing your point about whatever it is is worthwhile or you wouldn't waste the effort to argue. So you must feel strongly in a way which conflicts your husband on certain things. If you guys make a positive effort to calmly talk things out and not let tempers start a fight, you can come to a compromise on anything. Don't throw away a marriage over something so trivial as a verbal argument. Your Son needs you both. Take care

    Find the root cause. May be you both are not making love. Guys will be quite nice if they get some action. Maybe it is the mess in the house. May be there is not enough income or maybe job stress is coming over. Setup a meeting once a day every week for 2 hours or so to discuss issues. Don't fight the rest of the time keep a note of the issues and on that day discuss it.

    It is normal to fight a little bit the trick is to get a grip on it.

    Im going though the same thing,the best advice i can give you is sit down and figure out what matters the most those arguments or just loving each other more instead of fighting.I fight with my husband too but i think he might be cheating cause he has hidden things from me before,Just think about it before you say anything is this really worth fighting about or can i let it go.Pick your battles only fight the ones that are big dont complain about the small things liek the dishes or taking the trash out or maybe if he plays video games for a little but just let him be sometimes.Find a hobby or go hang out with yoru friends

    Source(s): my own experiences please take it from me i have managed to push mine away and now he says he is leaving.

    While all this fighting is going on is each party trying to under stand the other? Are either trying to put the other persons feelings ahead of their own? Are you so busy trying to prove your point that you are not taking the time to see the others point. Have we tried to work out a compromise so it is a win/ win situation, each side gets a little of what they want. What is really important to the both of you?

    It sounds like there is a bigger issue here than your shallow fighting. Can you talk to your hubby about what the real issues are? Maybe you can go to a consuler to have help getting to the heart of the problems.

    #1 BE QUIET

    #2 BE QUIET

    I have been married for 13 years and have 5 kids and I have had times where I feel totally crazy. When you are quiet and pray you WILL suffer--but you won't be making things any worse. The problems will blow over and you can enjoy some peace for awhile.Believe me it works.

    I want to answer your qustion...but i have a question for u....Do u love Him? whats the root of the problem? Leaving or runing away is not always the answer to everthing...is whatever going on worth braking up a family? Can your love make it thourgh anything? just think about ....maybe even pray about

    Go back home for a while. tell him you just need to get away. take your baby with you. What makes you think he would end up with the baby???

    Anyway maybe a while apart will make him see you can't take all the fussing.

    :)

    Or you could just slap him real hard a few times. Make sure the baby isn't in the room.... JOKING!

    You should sit down and talk with him - do it calmly and tell him you do not want to fight. Be honest with him and tell him that you want to know why you are both arguing with eachother all the time. Listen to what he has to say and try to work out why you both are fighting and what you can do to make your marriage better.
