Sean (my fiance) and I have been together for over two years now and we really don't fight, either. I think we communicate fairly well, and he just does not get mad. We do occasionally have misunderstandings, but they tend to work like this:

1. Sean says something and Ellmyruh misunderstands it or jumps to conclusions.
2. Ellmyruh gets annoyed and starts talking more. (I fight with words, not with actions.)
3. Sean stays reasonable while Ellmyruh does not.
4. Ellmyruh storms out of the room. Most of the time, she secretly sees Sean's side by this time but refuses to admit it.
5. Sean follows Ellmyruh.
6. Ellmyruh realizes how dumb/stupid/silly this whole thing is.
7. Sean and Ellmyruh hug and make up.

Our disagreements aren't major. I can't even remember what has caused any of them. But I can tell you that my next car WILL have power windows! :-)
