It will probably come as quite a surprise to both men and women that nagging isn't necessarily a bad thing. Nagging can actually be good for your relationship. The main problem lies in the way we think of 'nagging,' as something annoying and negative. It has its uses, and can help cement your relationship and even make it stronger. Here are some ways nagging can improve your relationship:
* It Shows That You Care. Nagging someone to pick up after themselves, to repair the leaky faucet or to finally sign up for that class you've been raving about tells your partner that you care. The more attention to details about you, the more they're thinking about you. It also helps with improving the quality of the atmosphere in your home- a tidy, kept up home and mind are a source of security. It's better that someone nags you than doesn't notice at all.
* It Opens Communication. Nagging can also be good for your relationship by opening up communication. It could be a form of affection, or a gateway into dealing with other problems in the relationship. Some relationships need nagging to start a difficult conversation, others have a hard time expressing emotions and use nagging as a tool to let you know how they feel.

I would like to know the name of the fool who wrote this crap article.
Nagging is annoying and totally counterproductive for communication. When all you want is silence and your spouse wont stop nagging you arent exactly going to want to have a conversation with them.
What a foolish article.
