Is a relationship healthy if you never argue?

I'd say generally not. Though physical violence is the other extreme and totally inappropriate.

I think it's possible to never argue, just not likely.

Depend, when you don't have reason to argue is great but avoiding a problems isn't.

We never argue because our personalities mesh so well, but we always discuss things important to us which is how it should be. Couples who argue about everything and fight all the time are not stable and not healthy.

I would think two people that were completely like minded would still be able to disagree on something.

Depends on the couple, I guess.

Yes - assuming that you're not suppressing emotion and/or avoiding unpleasant topics just to avoid arguing.

My husband and I disagree, sometimes vehemently but I wouldn't call even our most heated discussions arguments.

I think it depends on what you think of as an argument...

Everyone is going to disagree or lose their temper at some point, that's natural. Dealing with disagreements in a respectful, constructive way is good - you don't want to just shove them away and deal with resentment later. But if you're getting in screaming matches that's not healthy!

Well there's arguing and then there's disagreeing. It's okay to argue the makeup sex can be fun! But just because you argue doesn't mean you have a bad relationship. If you've never had an arguement in away I'd say somethings wrong, maybe there's a comunication issue, or you haven't been together long enough to want to express the disagreement. Maybe one of you keeps how you feel bottle up and that's never healthy for a relationship. But there is also couples out there that no matter what have the patience to just swallow the fact they don't agree. I for one don't I like that we argue every once in awhile, to me it shows that even though we disagree on certain things we can still maintain a healthy happy relationship. Even when we argue and I mean seriously argue we look at each other and say we are sorry but in the end we are still together and are able to talk it out.

This. I would call any disagreement an argument. Talking it about calmly is obviously good, but still an argument IMO. Anger or raised insults is a fight. So there's semantics.

There's also why you don't argue. As someone else said, if you're avoiding or denying issues, then not arguing isn't going to help. It'll blow up and could end your relationships.

Its more about expressing feeling and opinions, and hearing them.

My fiance and I quibble all the time. Arguing is fine, so long as there is no abuse involved and so long as it eventually ends in some sort of resolution. Communication is very important in a relationship and if there is true fighting something has to be resolved. Otherwise, my fiance and I also have couple friends who have a whole relationship where it is just normal for them to bicker about everything.

I don't think it's healthy because it's a way to fix your problems and it's just the passion being expressed, I mean it doesn't have to be a throw things and yell at the top of your longs argument, just something that shows you are still emotionally invested

if there are never any disagreements, someone is holding back.
