There’s a lot wrong with the idea proposed in the tweet caps above, but probably the biggest one is “that’s the standard.” Assuming there’s a standard anything—let alone a type of relationship or way of communicating—is utter bullshit and extremely unhealthy.
To the OP, great, your parents never fought, you and your BF don’t yell. Other couples do. It’s natural. It happens.
Claiming you are doing it “right” because you and your BF (and don’t get me started on the fact that having a BF or GF is nothing like having a spouse) have never raised your voices at each other may sound idyllic to you. To me, it sounds absolutely sociopathic. All of one emotion without at least the occasional appearance of a counter emotion seems incredibly dangerous and self-deceptive.
But, y’know, you do you. Just don’t fucking even attempt to tell me how to do me.
