Not a real fight—that’s for couples therapy. I’m talking about a fake, ridiculous fight where you pretend to be furious about something absurd. Stare them dead in the eye and yell, “You left the light switch at a 45-degree angle! That’s an intentional passive-aggressive dig at my ancestry!”
If they laugh, you win. If they yell back about the toothbrush cap, you’ve accidentally started a whole new marital battle that could last for years. Keep it playful. Humor researchers say that shared mock anger releases bonding hormones faster than a romantic sunset.
