Disagreements of course come up, but it's not an inevitability to descend into constant daily arguments about things. Been with my wife for 13 years, we rarely argue, but:
* we both have Buddhist based meditation practices we've cultivated individually for years
* we both have been to therapy individually
* we both have journaling practices to work through interior things.
* we have physical and artistic practices
* we take psychedelics together once or twice a year
The first couple years living together can be a little tough, especially if you've never done it with another partner. We fought more earlier on, before she started her meditation practice and before I went to therapy. As long as both people are working on themselves and the relationship I don't think there's a reason to descend into the stereotypical bickering married couple trope though.
