C and I had our first fight last night. It was so mellow, just like us. The frustration lasted all of 1/2 hour. Everything was resolved through a very civilized conversation, and we ended up even better than before the entire misunderstanding.
What I learned?
1. I now know how to stay emotionally detached and stay rational.
2. The reason why people fight has to do more with themselves than the supposed source of their frustration.
3. I now understand why I don't get along with my mother.
4. I am too old to take guilt or blame.
5. C and I are in a great relationship. :)
He and I are getting away for a couple of days. Let's see how we really function under the stress of traveling...

I feel like you and I are in the same stages of our new relationships! We are also getting away for the first time next weekend and we haven't had any real fights, just one "discussion". Isn't it lovely being in an "adult" relationship :)
