Good: Spent a lot of time just hanging out with each other and the family having fun doing simple things (biking, playing board games, etc. Bad: Argued a lot.
Argue
I try to let my relationship stand on its on merits
They always fought to be right and never to solve a problem and it sometimes resulted in violence and it's a bad habit I've picked up but thankfully my partner is the complete opposite and helps me to be better
Good: laugh; bad: go to bed angry ( I hate going to bed angry).

Let problems linger instead of talking them out
A bad habit I picked up from my mom is never apologizing - though I'm getting better!
My mom and dad are truly each other's best friends, to their detriment- they tend to shut out everyone but each other, but they honestly are partners for life.
Got divorced, resulting in two messed up kids. Hope that doesn't happen to me...
Fight
They sleep apart. I couldn't do that, I need my husband next to me, wether I'm angry or not, I miss him if we're apart.
My mom held a lot in over the years until she's been having a mid life crisis lately which lead to my parents separating and they may be getting divorced. They let it get too far down and bad before they tried working at it and fixing it and going to counseling.
Good - they stayed together while all of us kids were home to keep from having a somewhat broken home yet all of us kids wish they'd gotten divorced before, but as of now, when we thought things were better than ever, that's when thing

I never got to see what my parent's relationship was like, but my mom has said that my dad somewhat expected her to cater to him. My brother is like that too, but I don't think I am, though I joke around like that with my good friends.
No you're definitely not
I can't imagine your mom catering to anyone! Not saying she isn't caring and helpful, I mean that she seems like a "take no sh*t" kind of lady haha
