Who Started It? The Never-Ending Mystery of Couple Fights (We Both Lose!)

Jenny and Vic, who have been together for over 20 years and share five children, openly discuss a recent loud argument they had, reflecting on the recurring nature of their fights despite the longevity of their relationship. They consider their progress in handling disputes, including the use of a therapist-recommended 'password' to take breaks during heated moments, which they admit to forgetting in the heat of the moment. The discussion delves into the impact of their arguments on their children, the importance of setting a good example, and the emotional aftermath of such disputes. Vic and Jenny also touch on insecurities and fears of separation, while humorously navigating through their differences and shared moments. The conversations highlight the complexities of long-term relationships, the challenge of communication, and the ongoing effort to improve and understand each other better, all within the tapestry of family life and love.
