Worst habit of a significant other (past or current)

I used to date this girl who thought it was cute/funny to show me her used toilet paper after taking a number 2!?!?

    I have my 3 year old do that to show me she has wiped properly as we potty train her, but I might rethink that approach. I don't want her to grow up thinking that people want to see that

    My wife will keep score if things she has done and act as if she is always winning. Example diaper changing I would do it 6 or 7 times in a row, she would do it once than next time claim "it's your turn I have been doing it all day". Different example in case people say she was in labor for hours she wins. Ok ok.... Before we even had kids. Dishes, as I cook all the meals of the week I am constantly having to clean the dishes night after night. And often her only defense is she just had to do the dishes. Never mind the fact that I usually have washed a few times since her last attempt at it.

    I was going to list picking his nose, farting in bed and being messy, but I actually find those quite funny!

    He is pretty awesome, to be fair. I think my only issue is that he doesn't "do" emotions very easily - I'm a dramatically emotional person and he looks at me with blank eyes sometimes - he does stable me out though.

    He picks fluff off socks/clothes which gets on the carpet - that's kind of irritating!

    Sums up my husband :smile:
    Oh, I might want to add procrastination to the list. :wink:

    Always and FOREVER playing computer games.

    Quitting perfectly good jobs for no reason.

    HAD to be smarter than everybody.

    Still thinks that being a good dad is calling DS once a week for 10 minutes and taking him for a couple of days once a year (we live on opposite sides of the country).

    Current... spending FOREVER in the toilet.... piking out of settling the babies- he will change nappies, deal with tantrums, make breakfast lunch and dinner but he will not settle them for bed.

    After reading the post above, seems trivial! Procrastinating and snoring so duly a recent guest staing over thought the noise was a thunderstorm!

    ^^^This and trying to sabotage my healthier eating efforts and trust me I'm no super clean food freak, but come on a little effort!

    I work a lot and most of the time he makes no effort to get something semi good for dinner even if the fridge is full but says instead "let's just get take out, you're coming home so late"

    ETA:He's perpetually starting over so it's ok for him to cheat cuz he's starting again on Monday....grrr!

    Not cleaning his car windscreen from the inside.

    He so happened to clean the window with washer, and I go 'what's wrong with your wipers, doesn't want to get rid of them bug splats!' His reply, 'They're not bug splats, that's when I sneezed a few months back'. :noway:

    And also blowing his nose in the shower, and leaving the boogers everywhere. *cringe*

    Been there, done that. Glad I lived with hubby #2 before we got married, as I checked for that before I said "I Do."

    My Ex turned out to be a "peeping Tom", and was arrested for it while out of town on a business trip.

    I would say being selfish or just plain grumpy all the time. Definitely a happiness killer!

    I'm shocked and embarrassed for this girl, lol. It would never occur to me that someone would do that, lol.

    Besides relationship issues with my hubby, his procrastination KILLS me. Me: "When will you ____?" Him: "Tomorrow." No matter what it is, I swear, lol! And tomorrow NEVER comes!

    He is CONSTANTLY clearing his throat...or lightly coughing to clear his throat--I've tried EVERYTHING I can think of to discreetly help him...throat lozenges... :( poor guy...it must suck to constantly feel as if you need to clear your throat :( Oh, and the fact that I'll be speaking with him-looking him in the eye- and he says "huh?"...oh, that auditory processing delay of his is really nerve racking sometimes... Or, we will be having a conversation about something, and then 5-10 minutes later he asks me about what ever it was we were talking about, and I'm like "Um...we just talked about this 5 minutes ago...remember?" and he's like "huh?"....Oh dear...grant me patience!

    My husband strips upon entering the house, like he is 5. and thinks the proper place to hang his clothes is on my dining room chair.

    Yes, we are heading into counseling..............

    That he is able to put up with me and be so patient. Makes me reevaluate his sanity :-)
