[quote=Anonymous]For us, we have differences of opinion, we are just able to work through them without arguing. I agree if you never have to have discussions over differences of opinion, you're probably leaving stuff simmering, and you are likely to eventually get resentful - no one is that perfectly matched. But it's really manageable to have a discussion and come to a conclusion without arguing if you face things respectfully but head on.

For example, vacations/travel. We sit down in Nov/Dec/Jan and plan out our travel for the year. We're generally coming at it with different priorities and desires. But we lay them out, list options, discuss pros and cons, find some balance, and an hour or two later, have a rough outline of what trips we're taking to where in what months (or at least seasons) and roughly how much we want to spend on each (both in $$ and in vacation days). And then there's no arguing, and we're set for the year.

I think the ability to have those kinds of conversations and make those kinds of decisions as a team, without arguing, is the foundation of a good marriage. [/quote]
