What silly things irate you about your OH/ partner

*max*

Funny how 95% of those go into the "awww men/women!" category, and the rest go into the "Mmmmhh...that sounded pretty resentful, even spiteful actually. Sure you actually want to be with that person?" category.

My O/H unloads the shopping and stacks EVERYTHING precariously on top of the microwave...that sits on the worktop directly above the food cupboards...!!

My DH cannot go anywhere without looking at and buying tools.. grrr we have every tool known to man (and more besides).

He talks constantly about work and other H&S related matters (hes the H&S manager for a chemical company) even when we are out he points out H&S potential hazards to people and tells them how to resolve them.

spends hours cleaning and polishing his motorbike, even in the rain.

loud farts... even in the street... and says 'excuse you'.

the list could go on but there is not enough time:D:D

He goes out to the kitchen for something and farts while he is out there and then comes in and sits down, result is the fart gas wafts everywhere.:(

And he loves that phish food icecream but sucks the icecream off the polar bears and saves them to eat at the end
if he has wine gums or any fruit jelly sweets he piles them up in colour order and has to leave the black and red ones to last and eat them together
cola bottles he sits there and bites the clear bit off the top and then puts it back so he can eat all the bottoms together because he reckons they have more flavour. and he breathes/snorts really loudly when he eats them
when he starts a meal he is ok but he gets faster and forgets he is in company, starts eating like somebody is going to steal his dinner. dog makes less noise. I just do the 'calm down,calm down!!'

CAN'T stop laughing at this, particularly the thought of the two of you sat together at dinner whilst he rushes through the last 5 minutes of it, terrified someone's going to pinch his potatoes hahahaha poor soul!! Hilarious :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Mash. He only likes potatoes mashed. Occasionally he'll eat potatoes coated in mayonaise but only once in a blue moon.

Have you ever seen a man trying to mash a roast potato? I have :mad:

If i give him a chips, boiled rice or pasta he looks at me as though i am about to poison him.

My DH picks his nose, often in public, but really goes to town when we are on the sofa together. The first time I cleaned the carpet after we moved in together, I discovered he'd been wiping it on the carpet just underneath the sofa. After telling him how long it took me to scrub off the carpet, he now wipes it on his sock (bleugh)

He says he's eating some crisp instead of crisps, and choc instead of chocolate, and he'll only be a few minute - I don't know why this bothers me but it does

He fills the kettle up and puts it on habitually, even if he's not making any tea

He has a special way of saying 'yes' which he reserves for when he isn't listening to a word I'm saying - this is useful to know though, as if I've said something important, I know I have to say it again when he is listening

He back-seat drives, even though he can't drive himself

If he's having ketchup with something, he'll squeeze out a huge bowl of it and only use a tiny bit, then he'll leave it festering in the kitchen to go sticky and hard

I don't know all the things that irritate him, but I snore badly, if I'm about to fall asleep on the sofa, he'll tell me to go to bed, but I'll insist that I'm not tired - innevitably I'll fall asleep and he'll have to go off to the bedroom to watch tv

I'll also make a big list of things of what I 'should' be doing on my day off, not do them and spend the whole time I'm supposed to be relaxing feeling guilty that I haven't done all the things I should be doing
