you are breaking it off? How do you convince someone that an argument is normal in relationships, and does not equal a break up unless one or both of you say it's over?

Nope - arguing is just part and parcel of a relationship.
Other Answers:
- That was just the final argument.
- Sure, I've had that happen.
I just try to be pretty clear about things: "I still want to be your boyfriend, but I'm going to be p*ssed off at you for 48 hours or so and you're just going to have to deal with that." - seems like you made it very clear in that last sentence. if they've got abandonment issues or something like that, all the reassurance in the world probably won't make a difference.
also, both parties shouldn't get all worked up and emotional during the argument. i can see how that could be misinterpreted as something more than a lover's quarrel. - Yes I'm one of those. You convince them by your actions.
- Nope - arguing is just part and parcel of a relationship.
- Insecure much?
Not you but this "other person" you're referencing.
It's natural, if you have a personality, to disagree every now and again. As long as the two of you can resolve that disagreement. If a disagreement stays unresolved, it simmers until it reaches it breaking point...which isn't pretty.
Communication is key.
