The art of compromise is very important. No, I'm not married, but I've been lucky enough to spend the past few years with the same wonderful guy. Generally, we get along. The funny part is that we are both stubborn and impatient, and when we argue, we both argue completely separate but semi-related points.

Things like dishes in the sink don't seem to matter so much. We'd be just as happy to go out to dinner, and act like we'd only been dating a few months. In fact, he took me out for my birthday last night and we spent the whole evening being silly and feeding each other and laughing and plotting fantastic things for our future.

I don't really have a point, but I'll make one here...
Yes, men and women do so many things in such different ways. But there is at least one person out there for all of us that it works with. Our differences bring out the best in each other, and if they bring out the worst, then it really must be love or blinding stupidity. Either way, happiness is achievable by taking time for one another and remembering what you loved in them in the first place. That and a well worded reminder for him to pick up after himself.
