Do you easily forget intense couple arguments when you’re just a bystander friend or third wheel?

By forget I mean if they said some pretty intense, mean, somewhat overboard things to each other, will you remember it each time you see them and judge them or look at them differently? Or will it soon fade from your memory?

Yeah, some of those conversations along with tone, hate, and vulgarity linger for awhile. Once that happens once, one learns to remove oneself from hearing range. I certainly do not need another's negativity and anger added to my already plentiful issues... Yeah, it fades until one thinks about it again... like now ;-)

I distance myself from stuff like that. It doesn't have a big effect on me. I suppose it's part of a bigger picture, but by itself doesn't mean much.

It's always awkward as hell though, and I'd rather not be there.

might remember some stuff but most will fade
