This morning on December 4th the news is that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey never argue, and Georgia Clooney repeated the same thing with his wife. I can verify that. Lynne and I had such a smooth relationship during the first part of our marriage that people frequently said she was my robot like a stepford wife.
This changed as we took on a greater workload later in our life in the ministry. This would come to light when it was time to pack for vacation and the burden was pretty heavy on her and she would break down and start an argument. Thankfully I was taught by some nimrod Evangelical teacher which had a lot of good points to him to don't threaten divorce when you're arguing.
I've always enjoyed Phyllis Diller's approach to the common sense version of proverbs where it says let not the sun set on your anger.
Phyllis said don't go to bed angry. Stay up and fight.
