Are you comfortable getting feedback?
When your partner tells you to fold the laundry differently or cook the salmon a bit more, how do you take it? Be honest. You won’t do yourself any favors by glorifying your behaviors in your memory. Do you take it in stride, and never make it personal? Or do you become defensive? Do you pout? Do you start listing the things he does wrong as some sort of retaliation? If you do behave like that when given feedback, then you’ll have a hard time working with your partner. He needs to be able to give you honest and frequent feedback, and your ability to remain calm when that happens will dictate how successful you two are.
