my partner's snoring is a definite trigger to ignite my anger, especially the times I've had a very tiring day at work.

Les doesn't have very many qualities that annoy me but there are a few:
1. He's a packrat! I am so completely different in this regard--I will ruthlessly throw out almost anything. Our house, which is not small, is rapidly being filled up with all kinds of junk that he drags home.
2. He refuses to ask for directions or help--even when the situation really warrants it (such as when we were lost in China and REALLY needed help finding our way back to the hotel). We wasted close to two hours because of his inability to ever ask for help.
3. He's gone too much of the time. I guess it also keeps our relationship hot and exciting--because I am always so glad to see him--but he's away from home about 50% of the time and that's a lot. I get lonely sometimes.
But he is a wonderful man--seriously. This man would do absolutely anything to make me happy and he is creative in coming up with ways to show me that he loves me. He's treated me like royalty since Day One. Every day, he gets up first and makes coffee and brings it to me in bed. He shares in all the housework and cooking--and actually does more than I do (he's a better cook than I am too). Every night, he gives me a backrub before we go to bed because it helps me with my chronic back condition.
And he tries to do things to compensate for his worst qualities, such as being gone a lot. For example, when he came home from a business trip this last week, he entered our house with a dozen red roses and a lovely little jewelry surprise. He's just very thoughtful--and his good characteristics FAR outweigh the negative ones.
Yes, I am a lucky woman. I found Prince Charming--I really did.-
thanks for sharing

Asking me why im sh!tty, when clearly she's the one in the grump, and im only avoiding speaking to her out of fear of getting my head bitten off -
I think we should concentrate on the good qualities, rather then emphasizing, and dwelling on the bad, or rather, those things that don't live up to our expectations.-
LOLOLOL ... these discussion threads allow people to vent. They also allow friends to banter amongst each other. You "advice" on keeping things positive in this thread really doesn't add to the conversation as this is a thread to allow people to be negative ...
Food for thought. -
Not my "advice", strictly my opinion. Banter away.

hot and cold. -
He refuses to wear a bike helmet, even though it is a law here where I live. It's his decision, but in my view, not a very healthy one. A friend of mine suffered a serious head injury in a fall, and even she can't persuade him to change his mind. -
him always, i mean ALWAYS, having something to say!! I mean everytime I ask him to do something, he always has some form of a comeback or how what he thinks should be done instead.; JUST DO IT!! -
My partner is perfect. You know, just ask him. It all boils down to love. Everyone has their issues and little things.-
wow! that's amazing

Hubby annoys me with the cigaretts, beer, and his junk trucks in my yard. Otherwise he is totally awesome. -
mine would be sadistic teaser. one that leaves like you want to cry.another one would be pushing to go into dangerous situation because 'that;s what life is all about'.this is just about my ex...so i guess he just wanted me to be executed LOL. smoking too much, drinking too much (Norwegian habit).-
thanks for sharing everyone .....keep 'em coming!

he's a worrier, I'm laid back. He likes order and neatness, I have messy tendencies. He loves piano music, I prefer Hootie or the BNLs. He loves movies, I can't sit still. He's a miser, money doesn't matter much to me. We go to the park and he's off and hiking, I bring a book but we balance each other out so it's okay -
"hey baby, you sleeping" every f*CKING time he wants a morning do. it pisses me off!-
How can "morning do" EVER piss you off....?

My husband spends an hour and 20 minutes in the bathroom when he gets home from work. 30 minutes of that goes to the shower, then the tub, and back to the shower. The rest of that time is spent sitting on the can reading. One day he will have a massive hemroid and I'll have to hear him whine about it.
If I were to spend that kind of time in the bathroom he would scream "Are you almost done in there." because he doesn't want to be in charge of the kids. I wish he would work 24/7. It would serve him right. -
He leaves his dirty clothes and shoes all over the place! I refuse to pick them up... -
singing! -
Smoking! -
1) He plays Indian music REALLY REALLY loudly in his car.
2) He relentlessly whistles
3) He points out my grammatical errors even though English is not his first language.
Gotta love it. -
He likes to play "touched ur butt!" and run away.
That is embarrassing!
