11 Pointless Fights And Disagreements All Couples Have

When you say it doesn't matter where we eat, you better be okay with the next thing I say.

Couples fight. It happens. We agree to disagree and we move on; it's part of a healthy relationship. But no matter how healthy a relationship is, there will be those pointless arguments and disagreements that are serious in the moment, but looking back make you feel like an idiot. Here are 11 pointless fights couples have at some point.

1. What movie to go see

I want to see the new rom-com, he wants to see the new "Star Wars." He hates musicals, I think explosions in movies look way too fake. Sometimes there’s a movie that we both want to see, but a lot of the time there’s a lot of compromising.

2. Outfit/Appearance

It’s not one of those, “Are you going to wear that?” type of things. It’s more of a “You’ve worn sweatpants every day this week can you not today?”

3. What show to watch on Netflix

You’ve watched Stranger Things. He won’t watch "Gossip Girl" and you won’t watch Dexter. More compromising, but I feel like this is way easier to figure out than a movie. There are so many more options, there is bound to be something. But, that doesn’t stop the ugly side from coming out when he passes up "13 Reasons Why."

4. Sports on TV

Maybe you’re not a football person, or maybe you just don’t like that team. Or, perhaps ESPN has been on ALL day and you would like to see something else before you go insane. It’s the little things people. Share the TV. Or buy two.

5. Where to eat

“Where do you want to eat?” “Anywhere.” “Taco Bell?” “No, not today.” We’ve literally all had this argument. Multiple times. Maybe in the same day.

6. Where to go for holidays

We all want to go to our own homes (usually). We want to keep our traditions alive. We aren’t ready to grow up yet and not be home at Thanksgiving or Christmas. It’s weird. Hence, we start fighting about why we should go to our own home for Easter or whatnot. It turns into a game of Family Feud. “Reasons Why My Home Is Better For This Holiday” and survey says that someone has to win.

7. What celebrity is pretty/handsome

I’m not sure if everyone does this or not, but when my boyfriend and I talk about a celebrity, I’m usually like "Wow I love her she’s so pretty!” And usually, he says no. How can he not like Selena Gomez? Is he human? I’m constantly trying to find celebrities that we agree on. If he wasn’t dating me, I’d say he had bad taste.

8. Cleaning

Number one pet peeve. I hate cleaning up YOUR trash around my room. I mean c’mon. The trash can is at the end of my bed! I don’t want your empty water bottle. If it was your room, sure be my guest I can’t tell you how to live your life.

9. Family hating you/them

Meeting the parents is always nerve-racking. What if they don’t like you? What if my dad brings out the gun to scare my boyfriend? Even if they were super nice to you and baked you cookies, we still come out saying, “Well they hated me, you should probably date your ex again since they loved them.” Note: they probably don’t hate you. Unless they do. Then I’m sorry…

10. Defending your state/hometown/school

Being from West Virginia, I feel like I’m always defending my state or some part of my life. No, we aren’t incest. Yes, I get it I’m from a small town. No, our football team was not State Champs. Oh, you hate my mascot? Well, yours was a dolphin and that’s stupid so take that.

11. AC vs. Heat

I’m pretty much always cold. Unless it’s 100 degrees, I’m probably sitting with a blanket on. My boyfriend is always hot. He can think about walking and he’ll sweat. The only time I like it cooler is when I sleep, and other than that I like it to be a nice temperature. We have very different opinions about what that should be.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
