That's always been my theory and I would feel bad about it (due to potentially fostering further conflict in a couple), but the fact that she was smiling while she rolled her eyes made me feel a lot better.

That's why it's one of my favorite memories of that kind of interaction.

Not all conflict is bad. Healthy couples have pet peeves like that that actually bring them together rather than push them apart.
