Its not like I go out publicly and tell my friends about this (or ever mention facebook at all).
I don't really use FB but yes people will notice that you are not listed in a relationship with her and that you are not friends with her. The two main uses I see in FB is for inviting large groups to an outing and for after a large group outing figuring out the details of who you met. In both those uses I'd notice.

I have seen plenty of fights start over things on facebook, but have yet to see someone cite facebook as a reason their relationship blossomed or improved.
I don't see much value in FB period but if you have it and you exclude your SO that will cause problems and it is going to be seen as very strange. You would be better off not having FB at all.
With respect to lots of fights I would consider looking at why those fights are happening. For guys in serious relationships FB should not be the cause of fights. There is only two reasons for fights resulting from FB -- engaging in behaviour you shouldn't or dating someone who is easily excitable and overreacts. In both cases the problem is not FB.
