    This reminds me of a reddit post I participated in years ago where women were discussing what they love about their partners and it all boiled down to just “don’t be mean and communicate”

      My last GF and I, we’ve been through a ton of shit. We’ve yelled, we’ve argued, we talked, then hugged and made up again. I haven’t always been the best partner, and I could probably point to times when she was unfair too, but we must have done something right for that relationship to last ten years.

      As of a few months ago, she’s my wife. We’ve already had our first married argument, though I don’t think we really marked the occasion, because it wasn’t a big deal at the end of the day. You know what helps a lot with marital spats?

      Years of practice in communicating.
