Well, my sweetie and I don't live in the same house yet. But out biggest disagreements will be politics for one. She is a big D, while I am a big R. Then, house temperture will be a disagreement. I like it warm, she likes it cold. Housekeeping has already been an issue. She likes things very clean, while I am a little more relaxed about how the house looks. OK, I am a LOT more relaxed about how the house looks. She is a bit of a hypochrondriac, while I havn't been to a doctor in about three years. But in spite of these things, we do pretty good I think.

these are great! I had no idea sox were a such a fertile mine field. And I do remember about the temperature, my folks fought about that ALL THE TIME while I was growing up. So I'll post a list for what my parents fought about most:

1. Temperature- she's cold and wants it up, he's cheap and wants it cold
2. Driving - fights all the time in the car because my dad drove like a maniac and my mom was livid when we were in the car and it was dangerous
3. Refrigerator - endless fights about cleaning the refrigerator and getting rid of old vegetables

Her wanting me to put other flavors in my icecream so she can try them, but I only want one so they don't mix.

The amount of cinnamon one should put on anything...or in her case everything!

Using the metric system.

I had to dig really deep for these and they are quite petty. Other than this we agree on darn near everything.

She loves to watch politic talk hosts, I go to the bed room and watch TV.

Animals, she loves them and can't have to many, me one is to many, we have a bunch

clutter, she thinks every corner needs a cabnet or something, I like just a minimum amount of furniture
We don't argue about it, I just let her have her way. keeps her happy and whats it matter anyway.

1. in-laws. His family is a dysfunctional mess of people with weird, passive aggressive personalities. I don't like talking to them on the phone and I avoid them whenever possible. He wishes I was more open-minded about them.

2. spending time together. My husband works very long hours, and being new in town and not having any friends, I want to spend more time together, but he is always working. How much time to spend together is a big issue for us.

3. Whether or not to have kids. He wants kids, I am on the fence and/or have never yet felt the desire to have kids. I have no idea what we'll do about this one, and it stresses me out.

We don't really argue but do disagree about...
1. temperature in the house - I'm always cold
2. how quickly things get done - I like fast and he's more laid back

hmm...can't think of anything else. I guess that's good!
