Why does my man like to fight with me?

We can seriously argue for hours. Like when he said I couldn't have guy friends and said he'd leave me if I did. Well, he hasn't walked out yet. He told me he likes that I can listen, but I'm also feisty. That I'm set in my ways. I really don't get it because I don't enjoy fighting with him. He says I do, but I don't at all.
