Just started dating a new guy and ironically after we had the "state of the union" address we got in a huge fight the next day. Among the things working against us are 1 1/2 hour distance and a "serious clash of personalities"...mainly he things I dominate the conversation and I think he gets frustrated w/me too easily (it is the very early stages of this relationship). Please give me advice on explaining to him that nobody's perfect and we can work w/our differences.

Don't y'all think you're giving up a little too easily? Relationships just don't establish themselves...you have to "MAKE" it work...everyone has flaws...I guess my question is how do you discuss the flaws and deal w/them?

You're heading for trouble. If you stick with this person, you'll be hating life. Nip it in the bud and stop associating with him. Find someone that fits your personality.

You may not be able to work out your differences.
A new relationship should not be plagued with this type of communication issues.
Keep your options open and be prepared to move on to a new relationship.
Unless there is a drastic change in behavior by both of you, you may be dating the wrong person.
Good Luck.

Hon I hate to say this but if he is under like 30 years old.
It is not gonna work out.
Until at least then the toleranc for another persons views are just not there in men.
As we grow older we learn tolerance well and understand that is love. Even though we get more and more fixed in our ways.

Sounds like you got more differences than you have similarities. If you are having these problems this early, time to move on. Find someone closer with more than just a physical attraction.

Unfortunately...Those differences are the most important factors that create the foundation of a relationship. Why fight from the start? Find someone that will lift you up instead of being against you.

Sounds like he is trying to distance himself from any type of relationship.. Sorry honey, it was a short lived fling, move on..

i would say if you were closer and could spend more time "working out your differences" your relationship might have a Chance. with the 1.5 hr. drive, your time is whats working against you
good luck

drop him and move on! long distance is hard enough when you get along... it is impossible when you don't... too easy to missunderstand each other when all communication has to go through a phone or email... need face to face sometimes... you are setting yourself up for a fall. count your blessings for the time you shared and find another... trust me there are plenty out there and much closer to home...

I don't think he is wanting to work anything out when its only started. You probably should find someone more your match.

Like a boy that is near, when you are not near the boy you like. In other words, move on. Why do girls (women) have to analyse everything to death? Be more laid back, be cool.
