Soon 10 years together, and we are quite different people. Had periods of anger and frustration but also periods of happiness and closeness.
Now we have learned to avoid doing things that annoy eachother, but it took time since some of those things were really things we had a hard time compromising on. I think as I got older, I gave up more and more strong opinions about things and realized it doesn't have to be my way to be correct. :)
The more control i gave up, the better the relationship became.
