5. They are upset
There are people who prefer to be alone when they’re upset, while others want to have someone by their side to comfort them. If your spouse is in the first category of people and you go to them and try to convince them to tell you what happened, they might start a fight just so you leave them alone.
6. They are passive-aggressive
When your spouse has a hard time expressing their dissatisfaction, frustration, annoyance, and anger in words, they might show passive-aggressive behavior, which can be seen as a way of expressing their inner emotions through their actions.
There are many ways your spouse can be passive-aggressive towards you, such as giving you the silent treatment, acting busy so that they won’t have a conversation with you, making sarcastic comments, leaving the room in the middle of a discussion, procrastinating about things you told them to do, and the list can go on.
The moment you tell them something they don’t want to hear, it might trigger them into starting a fight.
7. They interpret everything you say
This is one of the most common reasons why couples fight. When your spouse doesn’t understand your words and your actions and they believe that everything you do is against them, they might behave like they’re always under pressure and might start a fight every time.
This needs a lot of talking and explaining, especially if they’re really inside their head and they don’t bother listening to you, so you really have to be patient.
