I'll go first, he will walk past the clean washing folded on the stairs. Leave his clothes on the end of the bed and will not put them away for days at a time. Picks his FEET Easter Angry

Oh and he folds things in half. Leaflets, theatre programmes, items of post. WHYYY

PrincessHoneysuckle · 15/08/2024 09:05

Never admits he's wrong.Ever.

Everything 😑

Any door he opens stays open. So annoying

He never apologises, even when he is clearly in the wrong.
He basically goes mute when I try to have a serious conversation with him about our relationship.
We have separate rooms due to his snoring, but its always a mess. It looks like a teenager sleeps in there. 😒

Tea towel as a cloth & left damp on worktop

Snores & pooft noises on sofa & denies being asleep

Wanders off in shops leaving me talking to myself & having to phone him to find him - I jokingly said I should put a bell around his neck.

Stacks the dishwasher like sonic the hedgehog on crack

Walks around my clean floors in outdoor shoes 🤬

Fidgets

Steals charging wires & leaves empty plug in the wall

Like previous poster asks me things I couldn't possibly know like where is the loo in a care we've never been in.

I love him to bits but seriously are we all married to the same man.

The tea towel gives me the biggest rage
He's lucky he survived my peri days tbh. 🤣

Oooh, so many to choose from!

Folds his bath towel up tightly then stuffs it behind the heated towel rail so it can't air and dry, then moans it smells fusty so gets a clean one. And on it goes.......

Appears unable to hear my question when I'm sitting next to him. But if I mutter quietly to myself, three rooms away, he'll instantly call 'Did you say something?'

Is unable to put his seatbelt on, adjust rearview mirror, put sunglasses on and switch stereo on before driving off. Oh no, instead he awkwardly performs all of these actions whilst careering down the drive.

Constantly, and I mean constantly, readjusts his mobile on its mount on the dashboard.

Just appears out of nowhere and makes me jump / scream. It's like he's on stealth mode at all times. I've told him to hum or cough as he approaches but he still takes me surprise. Sometimes it's hilarious, I'll give him that & it's probably just that I do actually concentrate hard when I'm doing stuff round the house or garden and he isn't really trying to be the greatest ninja of all time.

I call mine the Sleep Denier. I always go to bed earlier than him, and often go back downstairs to get something I've forgotten. He is ALWAYS asleep on the sofa, snoring and poofting - but wakes up and pretends he wasn't asleep. I just don't understand why he does it! I don't care if you fell asleep, why would I?
