I
just
say
what
I
have
to
say
and
leave
it
alone
and
if
he
keeps
it
up
then
I'll
leave
to
get
some
air
until
things
have
cooled
off
and
then
try
to
talk.
 I
LIVE
WITH
MY
CHILDS
FATHER
AND
I
USUALLY
PLAY
FAIR
UNLESS
HES
REALLY
TRYING
TO
TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF ME!!! Very
early
in
our
relationship
we
made
the
astonishing
discovery
that
each
of
us
was
at
the
center
of
his/her
own
universe,
that
as
entirely
separate
entities
we
had
different
desires
and
reacted
to
thing
differently.
Working
from
this
idea,
we
have
always
accepted
that
we
will
not
see
eye
to
eye
on
everything
and
that
it
is
best
to
seek
a
win-win
solution
to
problems.
We
have
always
been
on
the
same
page,
the
same
wavelength,
since
the
day
we
met
(he
proposed
on
our
second
date).
We
come
from
very
similar
families
and
tend
to
want
the
same
things.
We've
been
together
20
years
and
are
very
kind
to
each
other.
When
we
do
disagree
we
mostly
find
it
interesting
to
hear
the
other
person's
opinion
and
talk
it
out.
I
worry
about
our
daughter,
who
is
also
kind
and
reasonable.
I
worry
that
she
will
not
be
prepared
to
go
out
into
the
world
because
our
house
is
so
calm.

Good
question!
I
def.
fight
fair
and
hubby
made
up
a
rule
when
we
first
moved
in
together
that
we
can't
walk
away
during
an
argument.
OK,
it's
a
little
harder
to
follow
that
rule
now
that
there
are
kids
around
but
it's
helped
us
a
lot.
We
don't
have
"bad"
fight
anymore
and
sometimes
one
of
us
just
has
to
defuse
the
situation.
That
goes
like
this:
if
I'm
really
angry
he
hugs
me,
kisses
me,
maybe
rubs
my
shoulders
or
feet
and
tells
me
I'm
the
best
wife/mom/daughter
and
the
most
beautiful
woman,
etc.,
etc.
If
he's
the
one
having
a
hard
time
I
just
rub
his
face
in
my
chest.
We've
been
together
10
years
and
it
hasn't
failed
yet!
Hmm,
maybe
that's
fighting
dirty.
