I don’t think this has anything to do with time and is more to do with the kind of person they are. I had similar exchanges with my current partner within the first year of our relationship. If the response had been a blood feud as you put it that would have been a good indicator that the relationship was going nowhere.

I’m at sixteen years, and I’d definitely have to test the mood before saying that.

I have had many giggling “fuck you!” “no fuck you!” Arguments in my current 8 year relationship.

We’ve never had an argument that wasn’t funny and ridiculous from both sides.

I’ve been with my partner for 16 years. We met one of my friends for brunch last year, and afterwards he and I hung out, while my partner went home. Before she left, my friend said, “it was so good to see you <her name>” and hugged her. Then she turned to me and I said, “bye bitch, see ya at the house”. We laughed and she took off. My friend was like, “dude, I can’t believe you said that and she was cool with it. My gf would be pissed at me for days!”

So yeah, I got a good one :)

I think this is a personality thing. Its just not a phrase I would think to say and as a phrase it does not make sense to me. I mean I would not say fuck you and all your ancestors to the pits of hell, I love you too. Those are similar phrases to me.

That will depend on the type of humor your partner enjoys not time.
