This question is aimed at the senior members here.
As I understand it so far, a large part of overcoming BP tendencies and manning up is by "overcoming" arguments. If you look at the concept of passing shit tests: fogging, negative assertion, agree and amplify, STFU and not DEER-ing, it all seems to revolve around avoiding involvement in arguments. She may be angry, might be yelling at you- but if you aren't meeting her on that level, it's not really an argument. You keep your frame, and what's communicated in a subtle way is the message that her anger, while not pleasing, does not distress you either. Thus, as you are immovable in the face of her wrath, she can trust that you will not be easily swayed by anyone else either. Your masculinity levels up and everyone is happier. That's at least how I understand it...
So here's the question. If someone is passing shit tests consistently, "doing MRP correctly", can one realistically expect that arguments (in the traditional BP sense) cease to exist as well? For you guys who have been doing this for a few years, do you experience this?
