    I am sorry ahead of my statement. They are adults - they can put clothes where they need to go, close cabinet doors, not repeat themselves. You are not their mothers, but then again, their mothers must not have taught them as well... Please don't hate me, bad habits can be broken if not accepted.

    I'm not even sure I can type after reading all these (had to stop for a potty break as I was laughing so hard I almost peed on myself). My biggest pet peeve is when I say something to him and he doesn't acknowledge that he's heard me and since he is a bit hard of hearing I end up repeating myself. Then he'll say "I heard you the first time". Can anyone say "Strangle" for a cure!?!?!??!

    DH loves court shows, I hate them. He watches them, then comes to tell me, blow by blow, what the case was about! I gave up pointing out that if I wanted to know, I would WATCH them.........arg!

    He never opens his eyes when he is looking for something. If he did open them he would never have say the words "I don't see it" yeah buddy you don't see it because your not looking! I could give the man exact geolocation of an object and he would still not be able to find it. meanwhile I get up from what I am doing and go in there, hmmm, imagine that, its right there where I told ya it was!

    Men have tunnel vision; women have peripheral vision. I've tried to teach my husband to imagine what the item looks like then try to "match it up." Just doesn't work! hehe.

    My dh is a nagger. He will ask one of us to do something and then remind us every 15-30 minutes about the task until we do it. His glass is always half empty and he'll tell you all about it.

    But, he cleans the house, does laundry, grocery shops, cooks and does dishes. He supports my hobbies. He is VERY good to my dm and he takes good care of me. I have health issues and he never resents having to do anything around the house.

    I heard about a woman who asked her husband what she did that bugged him. He said, "Nothing". She said, "Come on, there has to be something." He said, "No. If you do something, it just reminds me that you are here and I'm happy." I aspire to be like that.
