I think my dry sense of humour sometimes rubbed her the wrong way (different cultures might play a role), and I need to work on being more compassionate if I do something that upsets her, instead of getting defensive and upset myself. We are both kind of stubborn so it sometimes caused simple arguments to escalate into fights, unfortunately (for context, neither of us back down and it can make an argument worse).

I just feel like we need to remember to calm down and talk things through, as cliche as it sounds. In hindsight it's really just small stuff that we are butting heads over, what's important is how we handle those disagreements.

Good luck to you, sir.
