I'm a patient sort of person but my dp's irratating habits just build up and drive me up the wall!!! Heres a list of a few

1, Picking his nose anytime anywere (it's like he's going caving when he gets started)

2, Is heavy handed.....he brakes anything and everything, but genuine accidents (drives me madddddd, he comes out with 'Well they don't make things like they used to')

3, Promises to fix broken things but never gets round to it....grrrrrrrrr.

4, Comes out with things like i've helped you do the ironing/washing/ helped you put the kids to bed etccc (it's our ironing!!!! our washing our kids!!!!)

5, When anything goes missing or gets broken, he's no part in it its everyone else....then months later he might say oh i think i might of put it in the bin.

7, he swears his head off. We've had countless rows about swearing in front oof the kids.

8, He'll come in and turn the tele over right in the middle of a program I'm watching without asking (it soons get turned back, but why do it why not ask???)

9, When i'm ill he's as thoughtful as a pig but naturally when he's bad its another story

10, He moans that when I go to cook something as he says it makes a mess creating pots (what!!!!!! we have to eat)

So far this morning my watch was broken, though he did fix it, he's lost my memory stick, he's been swearing and raking his nose is an understatement and as I'm full of cold he's been an insensitive git and as I leaned over to give him goodbye kiss (just dropped him off at work) he had his finger up his nose!!!!!!!!

and leaves the best bit of a meal until the end,so he'll have a really crispy bit of roast potatoe sitting on the side of his plate just asking to be pinched.

I also hate the way my DH will insist he is ready to go. Will have us walking out the door and then remembers about 5 things (that aren't important) that he must do quickly. So We are stuck waiting in the car. He does this every single time.

Won't eat any bread that isn't perfectly fresh but always leaves the bread out. Currently I'm at home to bag and bread bin it after he's gone to work, but when I start work again in three weeks time I'll be out of the door first. Looks like we'll be living off bread and butter pudding!

When the papers are delivered on a Sunday, he just picks up the one he wants to read and leaves the rest by the door. Totally irrational but it drives me barmy!
