For me it is money. I am trying to be sensible with our finances butmy other half seems to have no sense of responsibility when it comes to money. If it is in his pocket he will spend it, with no thought of budgeting or putting any aside for later. It drives me mad! What do you argue about in your relationship?

Households! This is the main topic of fights between us because he is just so untidy and I am the only one to tidy everything behind him so I get really angry at him, I told him that if he cannot put something in its order then do not make disorder too but he cannot understand such a simple thing.
When he brushes his teeth, it is as if no one will come there to brush again as he keeps everything mess up, he does not even cleans it. When he wake up he should atleast know that he can sometimes tidy up the bed but this fact goes out of his mind.
When he does so I remember only one song which is from Aleisha Dixon "The boy does nothing"

Mostly about our children. My husband's view of raising children is old school whereas I like to give the children more freedom to express themselves. He wants the children to just do as they are told and not argue or talk back which is impossible with children nowadays.

I can't say we really argue about a lot because any argument seems to end with "Do you want me to leave?" It is kind of terroristic really. I think sometimes he will make small concessions to me if I ask him things, but usually it just doesn't go anywhere so I don't confront my partner with anything most of the time. It's not the way it should be, but it is the way to have peace at my house.

We sometimes argued about money but i guess it is normal to the couple. The things that we argue most is when is the time that i could breath well. In my case i live in the parents of my husband and his two nieces are also living in their grandparents which sometimes in am complaining about the chores at home that i am working too hard for them and they never seen the hardship that i feel because in their part, they very lucky that i am doing the chores in which it is their obligation. I always said to my husband that i wanted to have a privacy in life which include my kids and my husband to have our own house. But its been 13 years being passed and still i am here in my parents in law house and tired of keep nagging to my husband to separate to his parents. I sometimes think the positive sides of his parent especially his mother which she is the main reason why we could not separate from them.

For me, I am a home maker and my husband also work from home. Maybe due to the reason we seen each other every single minutes, therefore we usually quarrel for little tiny matters.
For example, we just quarrel about a barbeque pork which I cooked for him for dinner. I know it sounds ridiculous but we were so angry till we do not talked to each other for the whole day long.
I think it is normal for a couple to disagree because we both are two separate individuals, so naturally there will be areas where we won't on at all.
Coming together doesn't mean we absorb each other's taught, right?

There are very few things but the one of the common reason for me and my gf to have a disagreement is her being a procrastinator about important things. Like, exams for example, she would keep delaying studying until the last day and then she would frantically try to do as much as she can. Or, like she often misses deadlines for important documents. She does not likes it when i point it out, but someone has to tell her.

Money isn't problem for us. We always have enough, but the problem is I like watching other girls, not flirting with them or something else, just watching. My girlfriend obviously doesn't like it, but the problem is I can't help myself. Eventually she realizes that watching isn't cheating on her so she always forgives me. Happy mylotting and take care!
