What do you and your SO argue over the most?

believe it or not, ours is the temperature inside the house and what method to heat or not heat it lol.... I like it cool and despise the woodstove as it drys the air out and messes with my sinuses and he likes it hot enough to open windows in the winter with the woodstove crankin....im so not looking forward to winter :(

    I saw your question and the first that that popped into my head was "the temp in our house"!

    He likes it cold in the house and I like it warm. I'm one of those people who can't get warm between the months of October and April. We don't argue over it but we have thermostat wars.

    I'm not sure what we argue about the most, but it's almost always over the most trivial things.

    We don't argue about the temperature. The rule in our house is if someone is cold when somebody else isn't then they should go put on some more clothes. This way everyone can stay comfortable. This makes sense because the person who is too warm can only take off so many clothes. Sometimes I'll be hanging around the house in a jacket. Other times my husband will be wearing his.

    Our daughter's diet and nutrition is really the only thing we ever argue about. She is 22 months old and whenever she whines or cries he thinks it is because she is hungry and gives her snacks. I try to keep her on 3 healthy scheduled meals and 1 or 2 healthy snacks per day and he will just give her junk foodsnacks all day long. He sees nothing wrong with giving her pizza, burgers, fried chicken, meat and gravy, tacos, or mac and cheese for dinner every night. When I cook baked chicken or fish, fresh steamed vegetables, and brown rice, he turns up his nose at it and says "you really expect her to eat that?" (which she does and likes it!) Our daughter loves plain baked potatoes but my husband insists that she MUST have butter and sour cream slathered all over it. I say if she likes it plain and is never exposed to all those unnecessary toppings then let her eat it plain! My husband eats something sweet for a snack every night and when I ask him to please not share it with our daughter since she is about to go to bed, he says "she is a kid, let her eat whatever she wants." and feeds her the sweets anyway. I do allow her to have the occasional cookie or small ice cream cone, but NOT EVERYDAY!

    Me putting empty juice boxes back in the fridge and him leaving his socks all over the place lol. Weve been together over 11 y so I guess weve gotten past the biggest arguments

    Usually hot topic issues, like abortion, politics, science, religion etc. Sometimes we agree but its when we dont.....things get tense. Sometimes we can agree to disagree but most of the time we need to go our separate ways for a few minutes. My mom thinks we should avoid these things altogether but thats what him and I are about- discussing what we find important. It's what our entire relationship is based on.

    How much time he spends with our daughter and I. He works a lot so it's hard on all of us. He's just doing what's best for our family - but sometimes it gets to the point where I need to remind him to take a break. He works himself to the point that he gets sick. Luckily, he makes the time that he is around really count.

    We argue most about .... the fact that he listens but he doesn't hear... and he says that I won't let him help because I don't like the way he does things (like folding laundry, doing laundry, moping floors) -- and yes I am guilty of those things

    We don't argue a lot now.....the first five years or so we did.....I guess now we are just used to each other. If we do argue it is about money.....and it usually isn't an argument - it is usually me complaining and him ignoring me.

    The thing that causes the most tension in our marriage is my mother and his mother, so we argue the most often about how to handle them.

    usually cleaning. We are both bad housekeepers and if we snipe at each other its about forgetting to pick up this or that.
