An average couple argues 2,455 times a year

Ever wondered how many rows does an average British couple have? Well, a survey says couples bicker 2,455 times a year.


The Sun cited the survey as saying that single biggest reason for an argument is not listening to what the other person is saying. This leads to around 112 rows a year.


There are other reasons too.


Getting annoyed over spending leads to 109 disputes and money in general causes further 108 arguments.

Snoring provoked 102 rows while 80 verbal altercations were about a partner walking mud into the home, the media report said.

There is more.

Reasons not to be ignored are driving too fast and what to watch on television. They cause arguments more than once a week.

Sex, either lack of it or the timing, leads to 88 conflicts a year. There are 69 arguments if one person has failed to say "I love you" enough.

The survey was of 3,000 people by esure home insurance.

"Bickering on a daily basis is all part of being in a normal, healthy relationship. The normal co-habiting couple will have to put up with each other's daily annoyances - even if they can prove to be very irritating," a spokesperson of the insurance firm was quoted as saying.
