He and I have only been seriously dating for about six weeks, although we've casually known each other for the past 8 years. Our timing simply hadn't been in sync. The biggest area of conflict in which I think we could lock horns is that of my impulsivity and leanings toward indulgence and immediate gratification vs. his frugality, practicality and leanings toward asceticism. This reared its head just this past weekend when I learned we'd left to do something two hours later than we'd originally considered (and at a slightly less ideal time) because "the $5 parking would be free." It's really minor stuff, but we're also very, very early into our relationship.
