Can my relationship be saved

[Leigh20]

Me and my boyfriend have been together for 8 months most of time we are perfect but other times we argue and it gets very pathetic. We have both been hurt in the past by Others so we are afraid of it happening again help please

It's not always about the past that creates arguments....that's a cop-out. It's one of two things, lack of communications skills or lack of compatibility. You both need to sit down and work out a set of guidelines or rules on how you want to discuss issues with one another. Like for example you ask him what's wrong, if he says nothing, then don't push it, just let it go. Also what works is setting aside a time in your day that you both vent about things for 10 mins. Me and my husband do that after work over a beer everyday when needed. And another thing, you both open up more to each other about the past. Sometimes sharing will help bring in more understanding towards each other. If that doesn't work, go find a GF to talk about it and take the strain off your BF.
