He gets annoyed when I talk about personal issues, like what one does that irritates the other. ;)

We need more info. Share. :D

<--- Rates this thread as VERY high on the "Potential for hilarity, giving way to anger, morphing into embarrassment" factor.

She leaves her tea bags in the cup when she puts them in the sink. So I am have to go pull them out and throw them away.

When she gets annoyed with me, she starts jabbering my way in another language. I tell her that I don't understand what she's saying and that I'll create my own translation, which always winds up being "You are an awesome husband".

I used to do that with my step-mother. She would start jabbering in Tagalog, and I would just respond. Thank you, I knew I was such a great and loved step-son! :laugh2:

One thing she used to do that I would get yelled at is tell me to take out the trash in Tagolog. Then I wouldn't take it out not knowing what the hell she was saying and my Dad used to kick my ***. After a few times of that, I figured out that when I heard a certain familiar string of syllables, I had better take the trash out! :laugh2:

Out of the middle of nowhere she starts halfway into a sceneairo/daily event/situation I know nothing about. wha......? Then gets mad because I'm completely confused. If I ask what are you talking about she just says "oh, nevermind! You're clueless." NOW we're gettin' somewhere...........

This.

Or, it's like just because we talked about something 30 minutes ago, you can't just pick it back up and ask me a question like "What do you think?" without explaining that we're talking about that again.

Women want us to read their minds, and we tell them that we can't read their minds, but they still get mad when we literally are not mind readers.

They should be happy we still find it sexy and interesting.

Some women would love for their husbands to show that interest and enthusiasm.

At least that is what I tell her...but it still annoys her. :laugh2:


It's interesting to read what are "minor annoyance" for some people.

Being embarrassed by playful affection like that in public would totally be a deal breaker for me. Don't get me wrong, there is playful *** grabbing, and disrespectful *** grabbing in certain situations, but the former being a no no would make the relationship a no no for me.

As for my own. First let me start off by saying, my GF cleans house more than I do by a lot. That being said, I am the type of guy who cleans my dishes when I am done with them. If I cook, I clean all pots/pans/utensils before I eat my meal.

My girl will make a meal, pile everything in the sink and leave it there for a day two, adding dishes to it throughout the day ( I rarely eat at home). When I do eat, and go to wash my dish, and the sink is full of dirty dishes it aggravates me. Mostly because I'd have to move them all to actually wash my own dish, which means I generally just clean them all out of mild annoyance. Maybe that was her plan all along though!


She also refuses to watch scary movies with me because they give her nightmares. I'd have to say this is one of the top most annoying things to me. Not so much because it's something she "won't do with me" but more because she's an adult who is scared of fake things in a movie. It just boggles my mind. To me, this is something on the level of "I hope my kid grows out of this once he's older than 8". To have an adult doing it? meh.

I get irritated when my sons and I are watching a good football game on TV and my wife comes into the room and says something like "Why are we watching this crap?" and then she proceeds to change the channel to watch a DVR recording of Days of Our Lives. We then have to go into another less comfy room. I don't get it. Live football is crap, but a pre-recorded episode of Days of Our Lives is a must see classic? You've got to be kidding me!

Big annoyance - Boyfriend is a Steelers fan.

I'm not sure if anything else takes the cake.

She has a habit of NEVER digging up clean towels, but if she sees one, she'll use it rather than reuse one of her older, dirty towels in a heartbeat. She also likes to leave her towels in a pile on the floor or on some piece of furniture, so they are never dry.

It drives me nuts, especially since I don't like using damp or wet towels. So I'll go to reuse a new towel I dug up the day before the next morning and of course she got to it first and it's soaked.

She also seems to often have something important to say right when something interesting is happening on TV. They'll be revealing who the killer was or whatever and she'll start talking over the TV about something completely unrelated.

nyc has already graciously answered for me, but he was wrong as usual.

She asks me a question, and if I say "I don't know," she will ask the same question in another way as if that will spark my brain into action so I can provide details.

She knows she does this too. She knows it just saps my energy, but she can't help herself. I am supposed to know the answer to everything she asks.

My wife will ask the "do you want this or this with dinner" and I almost always answer "I don't care" which means, I don't care. My wife still doesn't get that sometimes. Drives me crazy.

We've been playing a 22 year game of hide and go seek and I'm yet to find her. It drives me crazy that she's so good at this game.
