I am sure all of us know how important communication is in a relationship. What are some good and bad things in your past relationships in regards to communication?
In my marriage the communication was okay at first. It broke down badly towards the end and it was bad news. Communication was horrible the last three years or marriage.
In my current relationship the communication is awesome right now. We seem to be very similar people and have similar views on most things. I have also learned to be more open and over the course of time I have opened myself so much to my GF and she has done the same with me.
Since my marriage failed as a result of a lot of different factors, communication being a big one, I have become much more open. I don't hold back anymore and I share most everything. My divorce taught me a lot about communications and the value of good communication.

Example: My GF thinks that Fighting means a discussion where we have different opinions about a subject.
To me Fighting implies a disagreement that has gotten out of hand and now everyone is fussing or yelling. This is based on my past experiences. I don't like to "Fight" because of this. To her, fighting is okay because it doesn't have a bad connotation.
Where this is interesting is if my GF was to say that we had a fight the other day and I felt that we didn't because no one was yelling or fussing, we were simply discussing a difference in opinions. To me fighting is bad as it has bad connotations.
