Resolution
We’ve talked. There were tears, some raised voices, lots of unhappiness. We are going to try. We are going to work this out. I mean it when I say I can’t imagine life without him.

Obviously, I don’t know the entire story. What I can tell you, based on my own experiences after four years of marriage, is that there are always going to be things the other person does or says that grate on your nerves. I’m anal retentive; my wife won’t come right out and ask for help, ever. We go round and round about finances and purchases for the home. It’s always something.
But… we’ve kept talking. We try to never go to bed angry. Over time, we’ve become more sensitive to one another’s hot buttons, and we’ve learned that simply finding ways to express the same feelings or make the same points without touching those hot buttons keeps things running smoothly and keeps us from getting into the same old arguments.
There are always new ones, of course, but if you keep working at it and–most importantly–if you truly love each other, it’s all workable.

Thanks, Foo. One of the things I love about reading your site is how much your love for your wife comes out in your posts. You remain an inspiration.
