Very good point. We've actually had a few small issues along those lines that we have talked through well. The thing that I've noticed that we both do (and I'm able to recognize alot better now) is minimizing our attacking of each other. We talk about the issue at hand and we don't bring old issues into the mix that could lead to an argument.
Of course I've got no idea exactly how we are going to handle future sitch's, but I sure feel alot better about the tools that I have now when those sitch's arise.
Thanks for the input - and I definitely didn't take it as negative. I think its good to have those kinds of things to think about, b/c, you're right, its not always going to be positive.
