We've been together for 20 years and married for 15 years this summer.
We've had some rough moments in the early days but it's been pretty smooth sailing over the past while. The main key to making it work has been communication and compromise. I think when it comes down to it we are reasonable people. We don't worry about little things but make sure to give notice to the other that it's bothersome (e.g. she can never put the new roll of toilet paper back on the dispenser -- why *is* it always the bathroom? -- I don't care *that* much about it).
The few problems we have, while annoying, are relatively minor and we work at them or have solved them (things like money and house cleaning). We solve them through communication and compromise.
