We did not argue, no. And I think that may have been a problem. I guess that we both kept things inside. I didn't tell her things that bothered me, and she didn't tell me things that bothered her. We haven't argued in years. She told me she always tried to make me happy and made sacrifices. If I had known that I would have told her to stop. I didn't want her to sacrifice her own happiness for mine. I guess we are both conflict avoiders.
And no, I don't lose my temper around people. I've never yelled at anyone outside my family. And I don't yell at my family often. I keep my cool because I'm laid back. It's just my personality. Unless you get me behind the wheel of a car, and everything seems to get on my nerves. I've been intentionally working on that lately. I know that me losing my temper while driving bothered my wife. I don't think that was what led her to check out of the marriage, though.
