Major empirical causes of romantic conflict
…in my entire life, that I can remember:
Anthropic reasoning
Population ethics
Kitchen hygiene
My apparent preference for continual reassurance that I exist, e.g. by the other person responding if I speak to them
What being in a relationship should imply about behavior in almost causally disconnected universes
The distinction between not having sexually transmitted diseases, and not having checked whether you have sexually transmitted diseases
(Not to suggest that any bother me now, I just think the list is interesting: maybe I should more often date outside the rationalist community, and inside the talkative hygiene enthusiast community?)
