What bad habits do you have that drive your spouse/SO crazy?

My boyfriend told me that he would marry me if I could just figure out how to close a bag of chips/bread or ANYTHING that can go stale, properly. -It seems that a ring (or a lifetime commitment) just isn't a huge motivator for me. Poor guy...

    My advice as a divorced person......continue to leave the bag of chips wide open.

    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!

    ohh probably the fact that i don't throw garbage away in the kitchen, let my son make messes all over the house, hang my clothes up on the floor in a massive pile, tickle him even though he's told me countless times not to, hijack his computer all of the time, and loads of other things; i'm lucky he loves me ^_^

    I am a diagnosed Obsessive/Compulsive. I'm constantly organizing, straightening, labeling, categorizing, etc.... It amuses my husband greatly, so he comes along behind me and changes it all just to see my head spin like Linda Blair in the Exorcist.

    I tend to leave towels on the bed/floor/couch/where ever lol. I usually forget to put mine back so I grab his and then he ends up stranded in the shower with no towel lol.

    She hates it when I dont put things in the dishwasher, I just put them in the sink :) or when I miss the hamper throwing clothes at it (im a horrible basketball player). Drives her crazy when I burp, which to me Im complimenting her on her fine culinary skills especially since its mostly weight watchers stuff. I get barked at for closing bottom vegetable door with my foot. Ahh the married life.

    My husband hates it that I always forget to turn off the light over the stove. I hate it when he forgets to turn off the light in the stairwell, so we're pretty much even.

    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:

    I'm a fixer, I can't just sit and listen, I have to come up with solutions sometimes he doesn't want a solution.

    ^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:

    I drive my husband nuts with sooo many things, but I secretly think that's why he loves me! He says I'm crazy and that I act "too New Jersey" sometimes (we live in SC, but I'm from NJ... and apparently it's not totally acceptable to voice your opinion LOUDLY out in public, lol). I like to stay up late-ish (like 11-12) and he wants to be asleep by 9 (understandable because he's up at 5 for work). I have a set "schedule" that I try to keep the kids on and follow daily and he thinks we should just go with the flow (although he realizes that things work out for the better if we DO IT MY WAY!! hah!)

    My husband doesn't like that I recycle everything he finds at work (he cleans out houses) and every usable thing gets donated in some way, shape or form, he says some is ok, but I find a use for most of what he was going to throw away, and it takes a huge amount of time and we always have a bunch of extra stuff laying around until I find homes for it.... I hate throwing usable stuff away, it's just wasteful when people need so much.

    That's not a bad habit :smile:

    I always try to make light of bad or sad situations. My wife gets mad that I do that.

    I'm a neat freak to the extreme. I won't go to bed unless our apartment is spotless. Drives my boyfriend crazyy because I'm always "cleaning", aka moving, his crap.

    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...
