...to ask what things you do that annoy your partner? (lighthearted)

[ThistleAmore]

I'll start:

I never clean out the cats' litter trays (in spite of the fact that I was the one who wanted the cats in the first place) and I never take my turn at washing up.

I am always cold so I always put the heating on too warm; I hate being late and panic if there is any possibility that we're not going to be at least 10 minutes early; I get stroppy about him walking round the house with shoes on; I always get up for a wee in the night and wake him up; I always have lights on as I don't like not being able to see in the dark.

Breathe

Talking over the tv - or pausing it to make a comment (yes I’m awful)

My username. With toast.
My toast crumbs always, I mean ALWAYS, go over to his side, so he says.
How? I don’t know ..🤷‍♀️

Ah, the penny drops, my husband has been reading this thread !

I put clean plates in the cupboard before they've dried fully.

I open resealable cheese vertically across the packet. With a knife.

I leave my shoes lying everywhere.

What is it with men and dishwashers? My DH is away for three nights so I am just having great pleasure in loading the dishwasher exactly how I want to and - shock horror- putting the everyday glasses is the dishwasher.

I drive too fast

I slam doors

I move his things to tidy and then he can't find them

I snore

I talk to absolutely anyone whether I know them or not

I invite my family over without telling him

I never ever dust.

He's been asking me for days to dust the windowsill so he can paint it and I always always think 'oh that'll only take two minutes I'll do it in a bit', then completely forget about it and another day goes by without it getting done, and the the windowsill getting dustier.

I never pull the gross bits of food out of the trap in the sink

I leave my wet towel after a shower on my pillow (I have no idea why this winds him up so much it's not him sleeping on it)

I avoid putting laundry away for days and days so it takes ages when I eventually come to do it and he has to dig through the basket of clean washing to find stuff.

I snore like a beast.

I throw my coats on the hallway bench instead of hanging them up, and I leave my shoes right in the doorway and I frequently have 3 different cups on the go at once.

If I borrow his top he gets very wound up if I spill something down it ( I do the washing and don’t understand the fuss)

He hastens me putting things on window sills like the washing up liquid... on the shelf.... above the sink ( evidently it needs to be in the cupboard ... he gets ignored)

I store groceries and stockpile cleaning products when they are reduced ( evidently there are no such thing as true reductions.. again he gets eye rolled and ignored)

hates not hastens.

I'm a poor sleeper and my constant getting in & out of bed keeps waking him up.

There's a specific cupboard door that I keep leaving open. Every time he comes to it it's open.

I get in his way when he's cooking or putting the dishes away.

I fidget when sitting next to him on the settee.

I interrupt him too much. My idea of a conversation is much more back and forth than his. His idea of a conversation is that he gets to recite a very long monologue with lots of pauses and repetitions and nobody must say even a word in agreement until he gets to the end. But it's never quite clear when he's there. I frequently go off on tangents and try to hurry him along in his speech.
I'm a terrible passenger and don't trust his braking/ steering abilities.

I exist in on the planet...

Leave the bathroom light on
Take forever to get ready
Have the odd cigarette
Talk during films
Get out of bed for a pee umpteen times a night

And I used to leave my wardrobe door open

I'm a cupboard-door-leaver-opener.
This annoys everyone, not just husband.

Some of you would drive me insane!!! Though some of them are hilarious and so true.

I critique his time keeping all the time as he's perpetually late and I can't stand it as I like to be early everywhere.
I don't take enough care of things
I put cups/bowls too close to the edge of the shelve and on the arm of the sofa
I aggressively pinch his bottom
I cuddle the duvet in bed so I take up way too much room
100% my oh would know this is my username if he saw this post lol

He brings me a cup of tea in bed every morning: I never finish it though.

I wear trainers without socks, to his disapproval. He once bought me some invisible socks, but I don't use them.

I always start talking about something inane (usually something I've found funny on MN) 10 minutes before the end of a whodunit that he's been watching for the last hour or two, whilst I've been on my tablet in silence.

I talk during telly programmes
I leave cupboard doors open
I am clumsy. I drop things and trip over things
I lose things
I am disorganised.
I roll him over and poke him throughout the night because he snores. He gets grumpy that I wake him.
I am also dyslexic and I think that's related to most of the above. DH knows I can't help it, but it's maddening just the same.

I steal the duvet every night
I’m really untidy-he’s not
I don’t hang the washing on the line properly (I do-he hangs it weirdly)
When I paint a room I manage to miss all the newspapers he laid and I splash paint everywhere
My music-we have very different tastes

I’m clumsy and break things.
I watch too much TV.
I always comment what a slow eater he is.
I’m a chatterbox.

I always fall asleep before the end of a film then ask him the next morning how it ended lol.
It's guaranteed to drive him potty
