To ask what you do that annoys your other half?

[TinaTurnipp]

We see a lot of threads about what the partners do that grind our gears so I thought maybe some of us could own up to the things we know we do! No one is perfect after all

I'll start... Mine is baths. I can sit in the bath for well over an hour which often leaves OH bursting for the loo or waiting for a wash himself. I'll admit, it's pretty selfish when he's come in from a day at the workshop very grubby and needing a clean. I don't even notice the time go, I just love relaxing in there!

I get very defensive and I do not listen to what he tells me. I am not someone who likes being told what to do lol.

I am just a general pain in the arse. But he loved me

You and me both!

I'm reading a lot of these and seeing myself in them. Maybe I need to go and tell OH how much I appreciate him putting up with me

Thanks for this thread, I'm reading these and seeing my DH in so many of them, maybe I should be more compassionate. It annoys him that I don't understand that we are all wired differently.

I annoy him because I'm a morning person and wake up doing stuff, I'm too organised and tidy, I like to plan and I like everything in its place.

My husband is lovely, so kind, accommodating and easy going. But when I rearrange his careful dishwasher sorting he gets this little twitch at the corner of his eye. So much fun!

Breath!!

I scream/shout/slam my hands on the dash/completely over react whenever he slightly deviates from perfect driving.

He gets very annoyed at that.

What do I do that annoys my DH? I nag him to do/not do the things he does/doesn't do, that annoy me

I'd kick you out the car if I'm honest OP. Dangerous shit you're pulling there.

I put clothes in the wash inside out, socks still in bottom of trousers etc.
Don’t stack the dishwasher ‘properly’

DP, what are you doing on Mumsnet?!

Crunching crisps too loudly.

I ask him where he has put things, on the rare occasions he has tidied up.

Snore.
I think only the thought of spending time in prison stops him from smuffocating me with my own place of pillow.

Me with my own pillow, that should read.

I'm not very tidy, but in my defense I do try, and I am clean. I tend to get sidetracked mid task, start something else, and forget to go back to the original task. If I ask I question I expect an immediate answer to a simple question, not a two minute pause in between. It drives me mad dp takes ages to answer and it drives him mad that if he doesn't answer quick enough for my liking I ask again!

I think he's considered it before. In my defence he can he a pretty lousy driver at times (has no space awareness in particular)

The comments about sneezing in this thread are cracking me up for some reason 🤣

I'm definitely stealing the pika one. Very funny and evil. I love it.

I say "dishwashers free" when he lays dirties on the counter ABOVE the dishwasher. I'm not his ma or his wife, I'm not picking up after him.
He HATES it when i say that.
I ask him to spray his ap in another room as the fumes hurt my lungs.
I ask him to hang his wet towels rather than leave on the bed/floor
I don't bother with sexy underwear much.
Ditto make-up
There's loads.

When I fart in the bath when he wants to get in 😂

JustMarriedAndLovingIt evil genius 😂😂😂

Loads!
I spend too long in the shower
I am untidy
I only drink half a drink
I always need the loo 30 seconds before we leave the house
I always moan about my Mum but get offended when he moans about her!
I sometimes forget my DS is 13 and baby him

God, I’m really annoying!
