[quote=Anonymous]Hello. My wife and I have been having an ongoing issue for many many years. (In my opinion) She is extremely sensitive to any cursing. I have always been trying to limit it, but she expects (demands) it to be completely zero, and I don't think that is possible in a relationship where two adults live together for 20 years and have arguments. She says that I am the crazy one and that in all other families nobody curses when they argue. So I want to know what the truth is.

The cursing that comes out of my mouth is just "f_ck" and various variations of it - e.g. this is "f_cking b_llshit". I'd say probably the worst that comes out is "oh f_ck off", but very rarely, if i had to guess maybe once a month or so. I definitely never say anything personally demeaning, along the lines of "b_tch" etc. Only what I personally consider "cursing out of general frustration", not "cursing at her". However, to her any curse word, like just using "f_ck" anywhere in the heat of argument, is "verbal abuse". So I want to know - how are the arguments in other real families? Do you guys and gals curse? Are the examples that I mention "verbal abuse", or is this just what happens during fights? Do people really not curse during fights AT ALL? If i'm the crazy one - I do want to know. I only ask that people don't pick sides, like "team husband" vs "team wife".   [/quote]
