So Confused!

Every once in a while we have an argument with someone we really care about and sometimes when all is said and done we are left with one BIG question: What just happened? Last night I had one of these arguments and today I am left with so many unanswered questions. Why do we argue in the first place? I mean I understand that we all have our different points of views and we can't all agree on everything, but why does everything have to be so complicated in life. What was the whole argument about? Was it merely about "apples and oranges" or was there something else behind it? I prefer apples, you prefer oranges, but does that mean that you don't like apples, or that I don't like oranges. Or is there something about the apple or orange that doesn't allow us to choose the other? Or maybe there is something else behind it. Maybe this argument wasn't really about apples and oranges. Maybe this argument was a cry out for help. Maybe it's your way of telling me that something is bothering you but you really don't know how to talk about it? Maybe there's something you've been meaning to ask me or tell me for a long time yet you don't know how to go about it? Maybe we both have some built-in frustration and just wanted to let it all out so we chose to argue about apples or oranges. Maybe it's not each other we are upset with, and what seemed like an argument about apples and oranges was an argument about how we are so angry with the pear, but we really don't know how to deal with the pear. Or maybe it's a combination of so many different things.
So we had an argument and in the end I was left with the question about the nature of the argument. But that's not all the questions that have jumped in my head. Where do we go from here? What does it all mean? Was it just a petty argument that we will forget tomorrow and look back on it someday and wonder how stupid we were for arguing about it. Or is it something that will leave a scar forever? Will we see each other in the same way tomorrow, or is this pretty much the last straw? Will we become better friends for having had this argument, or will we grow apart? In the past we have been able to work out our differences and it seems as though every time we have an argument we become better friends. And I don't know how you feel, but every time I have an argument with you it just reminds me how much I care about you and how much I love you.
I wish I knew what we were arguing about. I wish I knew where this will all lead to. I wish that life wasn't so complicated. I wish I could take away all of your pains and sorrows. I wish that we can just sit down one day and just talk about what's on our mind. I wish...
