[quote=Anonymous]Longtime HM here (on 7th yr of hosting). I think it depends what you mean by "fighting." DH and I certainly squabble, and we do this in front of our APs just as we do in front of our children or in front of our parents when they visit. But "squabbling" is different than "fighting." We rarely fight, but when we do, we do it after hours in our bedroom with the fan on or out on a walk with the dog. We do not "fight' in front of the children or our parents either. No one wants to hear that. Most of our APs have been great about giving us our space in the evenings (most have gone out - to gym, to coffees, to classes - as soon as dinner was over). Our current one needed more guidance about how to give us private time. Once I explained that DH and I like our evenings together after not having seen each other all day, she has been very respectful and has now started going out (and made more friends and developed more of a life - so all of us are happy!).[/quote]
