<human>: We've only been a couple for just under 2 years.

Everything started out so good (as it usually does of course).  So much in common, so much to talk about, very open and honest with each other, lots of respect on both sides.   About 6 months in, he started doing things that bothered me and I would call him on it.  

As time went on we had more arguments.  And I started off being pretty reserved, but we both allowed arguments to eventually become heated.  He's the type who resorts to name calling when very angry, which I was never used to, so I would get very upset about that and stay angry for a lot longer than I would have in a "fair fight".  As time went on, we just seemed to fight about a lot more things.  

We've both said unkind things (and later apologized).  We've both hit below the belt at times (him moreso, but we're both guilty).  In my previous 2 relationships I haven't argued this way (although I know he has said he's always had a lot of arguments in relationships).  He has a short fuse and tends to say mean things much faster than I do.  I just tend to react.

We are in love and want to be in this relationship.  But after so much arguing and not even 2 years in, I'm sensing an underlying resentment.  I think I resent him.  I get mad faster now.  I find it harder to forget some of the things he's said to me.  I find myself remembering them at random times and wondering if he really meant it.  I get mad faster (as does he) and it feels like some respect has been lost on both sides.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: BF of less than 2 years and I fight "dirty" and I feel resentful towards him, which I fear has poisoned our relationship.  We blth want this relationship but is it damaged?
