What are the tiny little habits your partner does that really grinds your gears, but doesn't necessarily warrant a total moan?!

Forgot to list my slight annoyances😂

When I get up to go to the toilet in the night, he moves into the middle of the bed
He eats his food reeeeaaaalllyyyyyy slllooooowwwwlllyyyy
After food he sits there sucking food out of his teeth, only for about 5mins but it's a horrible sound😂

& I'm sure I have habits that irritate him too!

Eats with his mouth open and it’s really loud

I asked him not to and he was offended.

Loud dramatic yawning or sneezing 🙄

He's so noisy. Cheerful, but noisy. I hate noise.

So, today he has obviously got 'Cold as Ice' stuck in his head (1970s song by Foreigner for those who are too young). He has whistled the first two bars of it repeatedly now for the last 2 hrs. He's in another room, pottering around and I can still hear him.

JUST those first two bars. Then there is a slight pause and he starts again.

A really exaggerated swallow, so annoying. When he is talking then takes a break to swallow, but for some reason it's really loud and drawn out 🙈😂 However, he is the most gorgeous man I've ever known so I'll let him off 😁
