I’m not sure how you define “fight.” For me (and probably many others), it conjures an image of violence.
A lot of people in relationships resolve disagreements through discussion. If a partner were unable to discuss an issue without getting violent (even non-physical violence, like shouting), they wouldn’t remain my partner. Point is, being able to resolve issues in a mature way is a basic requirement for a functional, adult relationship.
I’m sorry, though. I can only imagine how much crap you’ve been through for “relationship fights” to feel so normal. That has to really suck. :(

In a marriage/committed partnership, I think most people would consider a fight to be an argument with raised voices and some ill feeling. I really don’t think most people consider shouting to be violent. Upsetting, maybe, but violent?

Fair enough. But do most people really think it’s healthy to shout at their partners when they disagree over something? I’m kind of shocked at how many people are voting as if that’s a normal expectation in a relationship.

No, of course it’s not healthy. I’m just saying it’s not violent.
