But have you been in a relationship with them? Because that's a completely different beast. When emotions enter the picture, all logic flies out of the window. They'll use irrational emotional arguments against you. In such arguments, using logic and facts against them will only make things worse. They'll see that as you dismissing their feelings and not caring about them.

Trust me, it's nothing like an actual debate, and your patience and sanity will be put to the test.

Of course, it will. I like it being tested though. I am masochistic that way, and yes, I have. Some didn't last long because of job choices and external matters, but for the most part, they kept their cool.

I can be a real drama queen I know, I admit it but I don't do it on purpose and I always regret it afterwards. I think it's human to make mistakes.

Being in STEM or being intelligent doesn't prevent women (and men) being childish when they fight. Screaming matches aren't fun. A lot of times, a couple can rationally sit down and hammer out a solution but it won't happen all the time.
