I have so many but my dh constantly leaves cupboard doors or drawers open after he has been in them.

What drives you insane?

lighthearted 😄

Fills the kettle to boil it

Leaves crap inside the car, the door pocket is not a rubbish bin

hmm how do i delete the double post?

BellMcEnd · 08/04/2019 22:16

He never ever EVER rinses out the sink or the washing up bowl. He’s great at loading and unloading the dishwasher and putting it all away but he leaves loads of peas and bits of pasta etc floating around and clogging up the plug drainer thing. Gives me the rage every bloody time!!

Also, he has a habit of putting things “away” on top of things. “Aha! I have just taken this large torch out of the boiler cupboard. I have used it so now I shall tidy it away on to the top of this bookcase!”

Just WHY??? Hmm

He is fab though

JK2012 · 08/04/2019 22:18

Leaves his dirty laundry on the floor...

Piles his dishes in the washing up bowl so I have to get them all out to actually clean them....

Leaves food wrappers, lolly wrappers etc lying around...

Leaves his wet towel on the bed after a shower...

Sounds really trivial but imo every little helps and I’m always tidying up after him but he could be a bit more tidier...

mynameiscalypso · 08/04/2019 22:19

I'm afraid leaving cupboard doors/drawers open is not just a man thing. My DH spends his life trailing round after me closing things I have left open...

Worlds0kayestmum · 08/04/2019 22:21

Does the washing up but leaves the cutlery. Why??

Discards tissues around the house like confetti. Drives me crazy

DonnaDarko · 08/04/2019 22:22

Slowest dish-washer in the world
Uses any flat surface as storage
He likes to hoover and will move stuff out of the way to hoover BUT NEVER PUTS IT BACK OR PUTS THE HOOVER AWAY!!!!

AAAHHHH !!!! Angry

Disfordarkchocolate · 08/04/2019 22:26

Owns 100's of socks, half with a hole in one toe!!! Bin them you annoying bugger.

Unfortunately, I think I am far harder to live with so I keep quiet most of the time.

EL8888 · 08/04/2019 22:31

How long have we got?!

Faffing constantly about everything
Snoring
Not putting anything away
Leaving a trail of crumbs
Farting constantly
Not closing cupboards or drawers
Not putting clean washing away. If it was up to him then it would rot on the clothes airer

francienolan · 08/04/2019 23:00

Mine fills a glass of water and drinks a bit of it then leaves it sitting on the table or counter. I dont know why it drives me so nuts to have water just sitting out but it does. Other than that I can't think of anything he does regularly enough to be annoying in the house!
