We all need energy to build our personality and to find our place in society. But as long as we think this energy has to come from other human beings, we will get caught up in struggle. Because human energy is limited. We have to fight for it. Human energy doesn't last. There isn't enough of it. So we have to be the quickest, the most beautiful one, to attract the attention from the other and to pull his energy. If this doesn't work, we try to pull attention by negative behavior.

Mixed religion relationships
Most relationships require compromise and effort if they are going to succeed, but what about when you come from different religious backgrounds?

You don't always have to agree, just as long as those disagreements don't become monumental hurdles that you'll never get over. Friends might believe stereotypes and have negative reactions at first.

In fact, Gottman's long-term studies of more than 670 couples show, many of the problems couples regularly argue about are actually insoluble.

How To Stop The Fighting In Your Relationship
For some couples fighting is the fire that keeps their relationships alive. It lets them know the other cares. Many are determined to win a battle that never ends. Others try to right the wrongs they have experienced in the past with someone new. Unfortunately, this kind of behavior is doomed to failure.
