Abusive relationships are ones in which you are afraid to express feelings and opinions. Happily married couples create a sense of safety that allows each person to feel comfortable expressing his/her feelings, problems, and dissatisfactions. This sense of safety is the foundation upon which a couple negotiates things that are bothering them.
It's common for each person to come into a relationship with certain expectations about how things will be. But without the ability to communicate and negotiate, these issues become sources for power struggles that almost always damage the relationship.

The ability to communicate and to discern will go a long way to make a relationship workable for longevity sake. Part and parcel of which includes Give and Take. If these two are practiced with symbiosis, then happy is the couple will be. Good thought.
