What silly things irate you about your OH/ partner

victory

This is just light-hearted, not the deal breakers , relationship meltdown/ divorce courts type irritants about your OH so I will start....

OH if he drinks a cup of tea or has a plate of food when he has finished he will just sit with them holding it until he gets up, never puts them on the coffee table.

If he has a packet of crisps or chocolate bar he will neatly fold the wrapper and put it down the side of the armchair.

In the spirit of fairness I irate him by having so many scatter cushions, he sits down and promptly throws them on the floor or settee and I have too many ' display items only' he says, like candles that are too beautiful to be actually lit:rotfl:or my new pure white blanket that is on the end of the bed but no one is allowed to touch or use, we'll it is white:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

OH always comes in from the hall way to the living room says hello then goes all the way back out again to finally takes his shoes off:rotfl::rotfl:

What are your silly annoying irritating ones?

My husband bites his nails (I hate it when people bite or pick at their nails - I always have to use clippers and files to keep mine nice and neat) and when at his desk he puts his rubbish (chocolate bar wrappers etc) on his desk even though he has a bin at his feet.

I think the thing that irritates me the most about my OH is that I like to get up in the morning, watch the news whilst I eat my cereal and just be quiet and not talk. But sometimes my OH just starts talking and talking 'at' me - I couldn't even remember what he talks about!

My brain can't deal with that first thing in the morning, and I just sit tight and wait 'til it's over and then get on with eating my breakfast!

lol, Irate has 1 r and "irate you" isn't the correct syntax so I wouldn't worry! :rotfl:

I don't think there's much that annoys me...as we don't live together..

The only small irritating thing is him leaving half drank cups of coffee about..i think he's maybe trying to tell me my coffee making skills aren't up to scratch

My ex used to leave the toilet seat up which used to majorly annoy me-thankfully current bf has been well trained and doesn't

My OH used to "beat a tattoo" on the coffee/sugar containers whilst waiting for the kettle to boil to make the coffee first thing in the morning .....I used to groan every time he'd be tapping out the Robin Hood theme - you know - de de dah de de da de de da da da.....

But what I wouldn't give to hear it again :-)

My OH leaves the seat up and I think it just doesn't 'look' right.

Eventually we agreed if he wants it up, he cleans the loo and if I want it down I clean it.

Now he leaves it up and I still have to clean the damn thing!

Oh dear god, there are so many of them.......

• he's quite orey (sp?) - yella, hoose, bank accoont, puhlly (instead of pillow) so a typical sentence from Mr Happybutterfly would be "pit the yella puhlly doon, empty oot the accoont and wahsh doon the windees in the hoose"
• the way he blows his nose after he's had a shower, ahem, shoower. It's so loud and sounds EXACTLY the same every morning but at least I know when he's done. "honk honk honk honk hoooonk" it's like a ship coming in to dock!
• the way he puts barely enough water in the kettle - just because he's making two cups doesn't mean you only fill the kettle to the 2-cup level.
• the way he plucks his nasal hair - both forefinger and thumb shoved up there! :eek: I keep threatening to buy one of those JML nasal tidy-uppers! He did that on one of our first dates - I thought he was picking his nose until he explained this insane grooming method.

He also does some very lovely things too but you didn't ask for those!
