    The ones that I am aware of...

    1) I leave drawers and kitchen cabinets open
    2) I let the gas tank get below 1/4 full before refilling the car
    3) I talk about mfp too much

    That I put myself down all the time. And that I don't clean enough, though I don't know if that counts as a bad habit or not.

    oh that stuff. well the ex complained that I never tighten lids on things ... and I guess it's a bad habit cause I've lost 2 husbands now...

    but I bite my fingernails which even annoys strangers. yeah. EVERYBODY hates nail-biting and I am a total OCD. if I consciously TRY not to bite them, I do it in my sleep. all my life.
    so deal with it. I do

    I tend to always think of things as "mine" and "their". An example would be, " If anyone needs me, I'll be downstairs watching my TV". Not "the" TV or "our" TV. It drives her nuts, but I can't seem to shake the habit. Sorry babe...
    I call the laptop mine and the big screen his. Even though both are ours. He doesn't seem to mind that though.

    He hates it when I clean the house obsessively, or when I make him clean. He also hates it when I worry about everything.

    I mess up the blankets in bed, like a lot. He always has the sheets and blankets all square and making sense, and it seems as soon as I get in everything is (comfortable) in totally array. "why doesn't the bed make sense?" is something I hear a lot. :)

    Complaining about his driving.
    Being a complete control freak when I'm doing something and he tries to help. I have a specific order and he comes and messes it up. :):) He understands. lol

    I have tons of imperfections, too many to chose from but I think my biggest annoying quality is that I say "Like" alot or that I am constantly turning down help from men when it comes to a "mans job", I can do anything they can do! My dad taught me well!

    My god. We are annoying twins.

    I also am generally untidy, and find it close to impossible to put things *in* the washing basket. Drives him mad. That and my increasing collection of running shoes.

    The two traits that I am sure make him crazy are that I have absolutely no patience for trying to make something work and I have low self esteem. When it comes to trying to make something work, I give up if it doesn't work right immediately and he has to come fix whatever it is (he has the patience). With my self esteem, he tells me all the time that he can't understand why it's so low because he thinks I am the most beautiful, competent woman he has ever known. I guess that means he loves me.

    He tells me I'm an evil sleeper. I kick and hit if he touches me apparently.

    Oh man where to start! I think my most annoying characteristic is that I pile things. Papers, books, clean clothes. I leave piles of stuff in my wake wherever I go haha. I can manage to keep the majority of shared space clean and even tidy at times but every surface that is mine and mine alone is covered with a pile of junk. Oh well, he should help me cook and clean the house if he wants me to have time to work on my organizational skills!


    ^This, but then I move the piles around. He's always telling me, "You didn't clean up, you just moved the piles around." I argue for a bit and then I admit defeat. ...sometimes there just aren't places to put things :sad:

    ^^^^This is my wife! Drives me INSANE!!!!!^^^^

    The most annoying thing I do to my wife is argue the above! It's a circle fight if you can't tell.

    My husband does the same thing and it drives me crazy... He always refers to our vehicle as his even when it is technically in MY name.. lol. I remind him all the time but he doesn't get it either. Oh well what can ya do :)

    My husband is a cat named Hamburger. He HATES when I don't let him lick the jalapeno cheese dip off the lid. Seriously, he won't talk to me for days.

    My wife hates when I whistle. Even more, she hates when she says "you never listen to me," and I say "I'm sorry, baby, what did you say?"

    I like to have sex late at night when it's past bedtime. My husband has to wake up super early and doesn't really get enough sleep on those nights. :wink:

    Oh the horror!
