AITBF for laughing when my partner went on a rent?

If this happens so often it just doesn't seem worth it to stick together. It's good that you try to talk about it but it cannot be one-sided. Me and my partner have a pretty strict "do not go to bed angry" rule, even when we've been very close to fail that we are just too stubborn to break that rule and so we always talk things out and it makes our relationship feel very safe and stable.

People joke that it's not a real relationship until your first arguement, but some people take that as "arguing is normal in a relationship" and other people understand it as "you know you're in it for the long run after making up after a disagreement and growing as a couple". Constantly arguing and only one side trying to talk about it, while the other only offers a simple apology with no change in behaviour, is not normal or healthy.
