Maybe because of their personal relationship, Harry chooses to try and dimiss her opinion whenever he can so it doesn't seem like Ruth is clouding his judgement, it could be one of those "You only listened to Ruth because of your personal history with her"...
Harry said it himself "Our personal history doesnt mean you can question everything I ask you to do"
Maybe it's a way of Harry trying to get over their past... and a lot of the time it comes back to bit him

That's an interesting point! Harry approaches things very logically, whereas Ruth tends to let emotions cloud her judgement slightly. That seems to be why they work so well together as a team, however it may not be a good combination of traits for a successful relationship.

It's very frustrating really, because as much as I'd love them to just say "sod it" and be happy together... I don't think it could ever work
