Let's Talk January: Advice on Arguing!

mishagirl asked for any advice on meeting 'the one' or finding love in general?

Oh, ugh, on the topic of meeting someone I'm utterly useless, because it's been so long since I've dated (I have not dated since the World Wide Web came into existence, so...yeah) and most of my pre-marriage relationships were pretty feckless things that I fell into largely in disbelief that someone might be interested in me so I'd better go for it. :P I can, however, talk a little bit about what I think helps maintain my relationship (I guess keeping love is a big part of finding it, right? Right?)

( Cut because I have spoilers for the most recent Sherlock, which is probably a pretty good example of how NOT to handle interpersonal conflict )
