What good is a friendship if all you two like to do is argue over who's right and who's wrong?
Relationships DO need an argument every now and then. It strengthens the relationship. We don't argue ALL the time, but we have our scuffles. Especially when it comes to strongly held point of views about certain things. Arguments are natural in the human social ladder of things. Think of it as a struggle for status and leadership. Animals challenge the pack leader ALL the time, and if the leader doesn't fight back they win and become the new pack leader. We're on the same level, around.
