I mean sure, if you talk about common interests with people youre less likely to argue, but if you build actual relationships and communicate a lot, arguments are bound to happen. Not arguing with people you are actually close with seems unnatural, whether on the internet or in person.

I think it depends. I'm very logical and my brain likes to identify issues and cleanly solve them. Arguing in circles is a waste of time and energy. Basically, it's complicated. I think the nature and frequency of the arguments are important to get a better idea of OP's situation, that's why I asked.

Arguing in circles is a waste of time and energy.

So you’re saying I waste your time?? I thought you liked me!
