A definitive guide to how we might argue better

We’re seldom taught about why arguments happen and how they could grow a little less intense. This is a guide to arguments in love: it teaches us why they might occur, what their symptoms are, how we could learn some wiser ways of communicating and how we would ideally patch things up after a fight.

Focusing on twenty common arguments — including sex, money, in-laws and the state of the bathroom — we recognise our own antics whilst learning how to skirt certain conflicts going forward. The tragedy of every sorry argument is that it is constructed around a horrific mismatch between the message we so badly want to send and the manner in which we are able to deliver it.

Lily ★★★★★

I’m someone who tends to avoid conflict, so this book felt like a safe way to peek into why arguments even happen. The chapter on how disagreements can actually deepen a relationship was a real eye-opener, and I’ve already used its advice to stay calmer during a tense chat with my partner.

Henry ★★★★★

I’ve never thought about why I argue with my partner until reading this, and the way it frames arguments in love as something we can actually get better at really clicked for me. It’s short enough to finish in a weekend but dense with ideas I keep coming back to mid-disagreement.

George ★★★★☆

Got through the chapter on arguments in love and it actually made me pause mid-argument with my partner to rethink my phrasing. It’s a quick read but the insights stick, though I wish it went deeper into workplace disagreements.
