Agreed. What confuses me is that the OP said "one of my professors." Does that mean she's in college? Reading this, I would have thought she was about 8 or 9. I'm not trying to be mean by saying that, but it's hard to believe someone who's 18+ would think that a married couple could never argue. Still, being naive doesn't mean you deserve to go through your parents' divorce. That's shitty.

Wow, rub it in our faces, I bet your husband is banging a chick on the side. I know I would if I had to see my wife (That I don't have) every second of every day.

Hey ********---I didn't say we worked every minute of every day together---did I?? Society is too quick to fight, and judge!! We respect each other, have amazing sex, and can act like adults. We both work very hard, and don't bitch about work like society does too!! I love working with him, cause his work ethic is very strong, and so is mine!! We see many couples that just bicker and annoy the **** out of each other!! That is not what a marriage is about!!

Wow, such hostility, I hit a nerve.

You sure did hit a nerve. We love to go out together, and we love to stay home together. We can go out with our friends, or just one of us goes out. We don't make a big issue about it!! Your comment about him having an affair was uncalled for. Whats so hard to believe about the fact that we don't fight??

But that's an irrelevant argument. Yes, it's totally possible to be married and never have a huge blowout. But the OP said her parents had never even ARGUED. That's just ridiculous.

Maybe your husband represses his feelings and you're exceedingly controlling, or maybe your husband emotionally abuses you, but is so good at it, you can't actually tell. The possibilities are endless. Perhaps you think arguing with him is a sign of weakness, or maybe he thinks that. And so the winner always gets their way.

Your an idiot DrunknV!!

My parents never argued infront of me and my siblings, but got divorced. Now I'm a cynical, self obsessed FML reader.

Thank you, mercyFML. Sometimes I like to contribute things that might be meaningful to some. I'm not a full-time douchebag -- it's just a hobby. ;)

my parents argued in front of me all the time and still argue in front of me. They still argue and fight over everything. Does it mean they don't love each other and their marriage is in shambles? Um... actually... well...?

My grandparents never fight. Ever. But it's not necessarily a good thing. Most of the time my grandma just lets my granddad make all the decisions and basically act like the grumpy asshole he is. A lot of the time she'll just get upset but she won't actually say anything or argue with him about it. It's not a healthy relationship, and they've been married for nearly half a century. It's not really "healthy" to fight, but it's healthier to let your feelings be known to your partner so you can actually work things out instead of just letting them simmer. My parents will have loud arguments when I'm in the house, and I don't really like it, but I know that they just have to talk through things to get things to work. OP, I am very very sorry for you. FYL indeed. I would be devastated if my parents divorced.
