Is anyone else's dp/dh just really bloody annoying?

[Mashaandthebearr]

Every evening my dp complains about how cold he is, never wants the heating off.. And yet he's walking around the house in a t-shirt and shorts. God give me the bloody strength!!

Yesterday he left a big wet towel on my side of the bed, every time he removes his socks he rolls them off into balls and I have to roll the bloody things back out to wash them. He also does this weird thing with his teeth where he like, sucks through them over and over again after he's finished eating? His whole family do it, anytime I ask him what the actual fuck he's doing and why, he just shrugs.

So I'm in the mood for a bit of a winge, obviously, please tell me how much your dp/dhs annoy you, so I can prevent myself strangling him in his sleep.

@Caramel78
Mine likes to come over and grope my boobs whilst making a honking noise. I’ve told him repeatedly it makes me fancy him a little bit less every time he does it but he still persists.
......
I would really lose my rag at that and give him a slap. It is so disrespectful.

stone cold cunting dead! this made me laugh 2020bluegirl

He sounds infuriating! You deserve a sainthood

I have spent 20 yrs trying to get DH to stop doing jazz hands and going all Benny Hill whenever I take my top off

Though the enthusiasm is sweet, I guess...

Mine does the same EasterBun2001 so annoying! In fact he does an incredible amount of the stuff listed on this thread. Which is the reason I often dream of living alone in a lovely, clean house. These "little things" are the reason I'll leave eventually - It's death by a thousand cuts.

@Dailydup, @TwoZeroTwoZero - I have one of these DH's too!! And he does not believe he makes that noise. And I agree, it is more annoying than the snoring.

I could post all day - but then, you would all tell me to LTB

DP cannot be trusted with the remote controls. If he uses them, rather than put them back in the same easily visible place, they inevitably disappear and we then spend ages hunting for them, usually only to discover that he was sat on them all along.

He also likes to hand me things as if I want to hold them rather than put them where they need to go. For example, he will bring round a carton of milk. Rather than put it in it's final resting place of the fridge or on the kitchen counter, he will attempt to hand it to me as an interim measure even though he is standing next to the fridge/kitchen
counter. It's like an overgrown toddler trying to amaze their parent with a special stick or bit of lego they've found or something. The only things he seems not to do this with are the aforementioned remote sodding controls.

He also does the one leg/arm inside out, one right side out thing with his clothes but that annoys me less as he doesn't live with me and does his own laundry. That said, it's still tiresome listening to him complain he's cold because he has taken one set of clothes off and then realised, as if he didn't do this all the time, that has a fabric obstacle course to negotiate before he can get dressed again.

@2020bluegirl your whole post had me weeping 🤣

Ooh another....
His bed making consists of just throwing the duvets any old how.
No straightening of pillows or bottom sheet, no shaking of duvet, it's just slung back on the bed.
It's like he has the mentality of, well if it covers the mattress, it's sorted.
I go in and sort my duvet and pillows correctly and just leave his on his side of the bed how he left it.
Annoying as hell.

Luckily I live alone now but the endless stinking breath. Knows he has stinking breath but too lazy to do anything about it. Wanting sex while he has stinking breath and sulking after being told why that isn't going to happen.
Has to eat in total silence. No matter what I say it is ignored while he is eating, maybe a grunt if I am lucky.
His side of the bed being like a fucking skip with filthy pants, snot rags, general junk and cofffee rings on all surfaces.
Finding unopened bills hiding in his bag for years months after they should have been paid.
Thank God he has gone.

Mine does the thing with the bag too! If he's looking for change/painkillers/whatever and I say it's in my purse/bag, he brings my full bag over for me to rake though and find whatever he's wanting.
He also sings the same song clip for weeks and weeks on end. At the moment its "the fog on the Tyne"
He can't open his fecking mouth wide enough when he's eating. All I hear is his cutlery clunking off his teeth, drives me absolutely batty.
Another culprit for putting socks in bed. He goes to bed with them on as he moans his feet are freezing, inevitably gets hot in the night, takes his socks off but leaves them in the bed so I have heart failure in the night when something touches me in the night and it's his bloody socks crawling about.
He taps. On absolutely everything at all times. I was in a bath yesterday and could hear him tapping on the coffee table through the wall.
He follows me about the house. Any room I go in, he's following me talking rubbish. Always ends up accidentally following me in to the bathroom before realising when I'm trying to shut the door in his face and he looks like a sad puppy.

He's just a pain in the arse tbh 😂

Oh God, yes!!

The snoring!

The constant questions about where stuff is!

The re-reading of texts aloud 54738940 times before he sends them!

Washing up but not cleaning the sides down!

Being incapable of drawing the curtains/making the bed/folding washing properly!

@Meggie2008 to be fair, I wouldn't want my husband to rummage through my bag. It seems like an invasion of privacy and I would expect DH to hand me the entire bag same as I wouldn't route through his wallet.

I love this thread!! 😂

Mine has really specific ways of doing housework. Only he works so much he’s never here to do it. On the odd occasion he is he’ll get so fussy. Reminds me he needs his clothes washed on certain settlings at certain temperatures else he’ll ‘get all itchy’

I wash his clothes like a normal person 99% of the time and he never knows or itches but if he happens to be home and sees me do it wrong...he’ll itch 😂 it’s totally in his head.

Also is incapable of putting perishables back in the fridge. He will leave buffer, milk, cheese, yoghurt...whatever he’s eaten before bed on the sideboard all night unless I check - but he also really cares about the environment and hates food waste 😒

@LadyEggs

I haven't married mine, and I don't intend to 😉

For people who are washing socks rolled up or sleeves rolled up - do you unroll it all to dry? I would find it never dried in all in a bunch

That's the whole point. I'll happily throw his laundry in with everyone else's but if it's not ready to be thrown in, I'm not handling it any more than I have to. If it ends up piled on his bed wet in the middle, tough shit, he might not be so lazy about it next time.

Was feeling a little sad about being single today. Thinking perhaps it was time to dip my toe in the dating water again.

Thank god this thread has brought me to my senses!!

Not only does mine snore like a warthog with a bad head cold when sleeping but right now he is "watching " tv so awake apparently but still snoring.
He also fidgets, his feet are constantly twitching or tapping. Drives me nuts.

He's a builder, so has tooth sucking off to a fine art.

@notaregularmom

bluegirl, your whole post had me weeping! 😂

@Squirrelplay

stone cold cunting dead - that made me laugh!

LOL it does sound funny when I read it back. Annoyed me at the time though.

@madcatladyforever So did your ex have stinking breath by any chance?

This thread is pure comedy gold.

@candycornlover he's not going to come across anything exciting in my bag if he goes in for some paracetamol after being advised they're in there and to take them 😂 I dont keep anything I'd consider private in my bag anyway to be fair.
I was in the bath last night and he tried to bring my bag through to me to get my purse to lend him 40p he was short on his bus fare! Tad annoying 😂

Recently moved in together having both lived out of captivity for many years, and they say you don't really know someone until you live with them, don't they? Here are some things OH does in the kitchen that boil my piss:

• leaving the washing up brush bristles-down in the sink after use.
• leaving used teabags on the edge the sink. As if this were not dismaying enough, often they are in the bowl of the used teaspoon.
• digging big ugly holes in the butter substitute, although it's not this I mind so much as THE CRUMBS.
• not completely removing the film lids off plastic food trays, which not only means someone (usually me) has to peel the rest off later on to clean the tray out before putting into the recycling, but surely just makes it harder to get the contents out! Worse still the partial remains of the removed lid are not put in the bin but left on the countertop.
• rice. Everywhere. Cooked and uncooked. The saucepan and the plates are big enough targets, one would think.
• chucking the sharp knives willy and indeed nilly in the dish drainer with the rest of the cutlery so they get notched and blunted.
• and speaking of the dish drainer, stacking it in such a manner that things can't actually drain. Bear in mind that this is someone who very nearly pissed themselves laughing at Jon Richardson's exquisite Live At The Apollo set about, among other things, leaving washed up spoons bowl-up so water gathers in the bottom rather than bowl-down so it drains out, yet goes and does. The. Exact. Same. Thing.

The training is making some progress, but slowly.

I have to roll the bloody things back out to wash them

No, you don't! I wash things as they're put in the basket and they're dried that way, even been hung on the line. When we first married he would do pants and socks rolled together and they were washed like that, his mother once went up the wall til I told her that he'd never been taight how to do it properly. I also never check pockets, I've often laundered money.

DP has every symptom I have got.

With child 1 I was in hospital because waters broke and nothing happened. During visiting I started to feel first twinges and told him, next thing he was doubled up 'in agony'.

Yet my dh complained about his feet and sent me videos of plantar fasciitis.

Not to defend him but that is agony. we've all stepped on lego, plugs etc, it's like that, I call it my Hitler foot when I get it.

I can't believe how many actually unroll socks etc!!!!

DP never quite puts things away. So will tidy up but leave half the things out. So at the end of the day the toys get put away but I still manage to find 6 cars, ten bits of Duplo, a toy broom and two kids books in the (small) lounge. He cleaned the bathroom the other day but left all the shampoo/bath toys etc in the sink; he leaves most mornings his pjs on the bathroom floor and in the evening his shoes in the kitchen. There’s me fussing about the DCs taking their shoes off and putting them by the front door and hes casually strolling around leaving them in all sorts of places. He’ll lock up in the evening but fail to notice the scooters, sandpit and football in the garden which need to go in the garage. We have a ‘paperwork’ pile in the kitchen which I sort about once a month, he never does it then complains that a letter has ‘gone missing’ - nope it’s just gone into the filing cabinet or bin depending on what it was. He’ll change DS sheets but not ours. He’ll “wash up” but leave the dirty pans on the stove and not wipe the counter top down. Sigh! Love him really.
