And understanding!!
It takes effort on both sides and when you do communicate make sure it doesn't turn into a conversation about who did what to who, otherwise it ends up in an argument and nothing is solved. Be constructive and be careful how you say things.

Then dude says:

I think the main thing is respect. And consideration for each other's opinions, even if you don't agree.

Both parties have to learn to be patient and LISTEN. You can communicate a lot better by just doing that.

First look for and at how you already communicate. So you have a bag of tools to work with.
Next figure out what's not getting thru from your side. So you can see with the prespective you have what you have to work with.
Next try to figure out what not getting thru to you. Communication is a 2 way street and just because you don't feel your being understood does not mean he is not having problems with meshing your communication style as well. Himnot being able to understand why you may be stressing things that to him may be unimportant may be getting him turned off to listening to you as he may be aggitated by the same problems you are.
Realize your on the same team.
Don't take your own side always and don't be defensive about being yourself.
Next up realize the general level of friction you are experiencing and how it influences your reactions toward him, don't sour the milk with your own frustrations about things or it will just continue to increase your frustration.
Finaly get everything out there in the open after all this is done. Oh and as a guy hate to say it but I always listen the best when I am being snuggled up to after I have had some time to downshift after work and dinner timing wise.
