My partner turns simple discussions into huge arguments herself - normally I keep my mouth shut or playfully tell her off if I can think of respectful ways to do so. If she gets on my nerve I usually stop answering my phone for hours just to cool off, then come back and re-read her texts to see where have I misunderstood her.

To be great with the ladies you need strong composure. If Athena was a real lady you'd fail her shit test. Even with men, wars were not won with words but strength and allies.
Behaving as if nothing bothers you.

Not repeating a red pill philosophy but it's out there in many manuals on "How to keep a girl interested in you". Don't forget that. Even in marriage you don't want to be too available and transform into a feminine husband. This is why a man should be good with his hands: if he keeps himself busy during the day and only makes himself available to the wife at dusk, it reminds the wife that she has her own responsibilities around the house as well. This is how country folks keep their marriage lasting for decades, the men are always busy working on something while the wife makes sure he's well fed and clothed at the end of the day.
