part 40 How important is fighting in a relationship? Fighting in a relationship isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's important to handle it in a healthy and constructive way. It's a natural part of any partnership because two people with different thoughts, feelings, and perspectives are bound to clash at times. If you love someone unconditionally, it is worth it to put in the work it takes to keep the relationship. As long as you both stay connected and communicate through it all, the relationship can weather the challenges life brings.
