How open is your relationship and how well do you get along?

My relationship is open to the extent where there are no secrets (even the skeletons in the closet) that we haven't revealed to each other. This means that we've exposed the depths of our psyches to each other completely and have found that we're compatible even at the deepest level, a level that many people keep to themselves to the grave.
This leads to a sense of security and trust that I've never had with anyone else. I say that without exaggeration. I mean it. She knows my deepest, darkest secrets and I know hers. There is nothing else to me in her mind, and there is nothing else to her in my mind. We can truly say "I love you" because we each know and accept the other person completely for who they are.
I can bring up any topic I want without offending her and she is able to do the same. We communicate about topics that would lead to nasty arguments, or even breakups in most other relationships. Because of our extremely open communication and lack of surprises, we've never had a serious argument. Only disputes that immediately get resolved because we talk so freely and neither of us get offended by what the other says. She talks as if she is part of my own conscience, and I talk as if I'm part of her own conscience. We know each other too well. No thought is too taboo.
I don't know if it's the fact that we happen to have the same deep, dark secrets or the fact that we've built a relationship where we can talk about such things... or both. But I am convinced that open communication is the key to a relationship where it's all smooth sailing all the time. Even the non-sexual aspects of her personality make my heart race. I mean, even as a friend, she would be the best best friend I've ever had. We share so many different interests and a deep appreciation for learning, it's like the sex is truly secondary. I feel like a big, sensitive fag when I'm with her. But I'm her fag, and she is my fag.
I want you to answer me honestly: how open is your relationship? Have you ever had serious, nasty arguments or do you find that such things don't exist in your relationship? |

I'd say our relationship is as open as yours is...that is if you're being serious.
Nasty arguments? Sometimes. We go through phases where we bicker about stupid , but it never lasts long. I think it's just what happens when we get bored, lol. Ups and downs, yaddayadda.
But I agree that open communication is key. I think anybody would agree with that. |

i have found when it's all laid out it opens the relationship to TMI...
sometimes it's just better to be two individuals who just love eachother and not degrade into an obligate symbiosis.

Why is TMI a bad thing when you're talking about your significant other? That makes no sense. |

there are lots of things that go on during the day that i don't need a play by play on. for instance, i've never followed a girlfriend into the bathroom.
i'm not squeamish, it's just not sexy or interesting in any way. |
