Teen Relationship

[123abc]

Hello i am new to these forums

right me nad my girlfriend are both 16 been together for nearly 6 months and its serious, we both have not had best luck in relationships in the past eg. cheated on. Both of us think the world of other, love them etc.

We are both stubborn i admit, for nearly 2 months we argue nearly every otha day, mostly little ones but had few bigger ones, alot is to do with friends eg. she thinks i wont to spent more time with my friends and she gets paranoid and does not like me going out with my friends that are girls, i would neva cheat on her though because i know how it feels.

It feels like we just argue and its not helpin relationship, over little things, but both are to blame i will admit, sometimes its like arguing for the sake i am confused.
I have thought we mayb both be happier in long run by our selves but we are both not sure, i know we argue but my feelings dont change and would miss her if broke up.

what i am asking is
- is this a patch where going thro
- is the relationship wearin thin
- should it liven up

any other ideas aswell really

help much appreciated thanks

What you are having is a fairly typical 16 year old relationship.

You will either learn to sort through the issues together or you won't.

The problems you are having are not so much a matter of your love for each other as they are relationship skills and maturity.

It's also easy to be in love with the fact of the relationship and not so much each other... you fight because you don't want to lose the relationship, the person matters less, really.

Take it a day at a time.

You're welcome... and congratulations on knowing what you don't know. That's a huge sign of maturity. If you and her agree fundamentally, just keep going back to that; don't get totally immersed in the small stuff. Learn to ask yourselves what's best for you as a couple and try to come to mutual agreement and understanding, don't make decisions for each other.

Like I said, you'll either learn to sort through the issues or you won't... be patient with yourselves and each other while you are trying.
