Useful Clichés?

A lesbian friend of mine is having some problems with her relation. That made me wonder what arguments homosexuals use when their relations do not work. I mean; they can hardly use the same old clichés to complain about “men” or “women” in general. I think every heterosexual man or woman who had problems with their relations have at some time complained about “typical male or typical female” behaviour and the problems these cause. The gays can hardly do that. Maybe that makes them see more to the individual and the unique problems of every relation?! I believe that should be a good ground for a relation. But on the other hand it gives you no cliché argument to hide behind, which might make the truth cruelly apparent.
