Money is one of the most common causes of frustrating squabbles among couples. And there could be many aspects that are involved with respect to a fight that involves money or finances. Your partner might have a tiff over what you as a couple can spend on, versus which type of savings scheme you both need to invest in. Understand that both of you have been brought up in different backgrounds, you both have your own perspectives about how much a particular object should cost. It is very possible that you can end up fighting over buying something exclusively for yourselves too (“was that dress really necessary?”). Chances are that one of you naturally is a spender and the other is a natural saver. The best way to deal with this crisis is to chart out a financial budget for the month, for both personal expenses and for couple expenses as well and stick by it. It will avoid problems and fights regarding money.

This could be a problem you know, therefore, decide together how much of lovemaking time you’d like to give each other as a couple. Maybe reserve Saturdays for an outing with friends and Sundays for each other. A relationship can be boring if the spark fades off and this is where infidelity sprouts, save your relationship before it’s too late.

These fights can be very frustrating to your partner as he/she knows that it isn’t their fault. Therefore, always remember peeps that it’s a healthy practice to have your own world outside your relationship. Don’t you dare give up on those old friendships and your interests which kept you happy before love knocked at your door.
