Do you deliberately annoy your partner?

maggiemaybe I’m pretty sure that Charleygirl was having a humorous pop at men in general when she said ‘just be grateful they know where the kitchen is’.
I thought it was an amusing comment.
My husband, Orlin, does that washing up bowl thing.

My husband didn't do the upside down thing, but whilst I was cooking dinner, I would go to drain the potatoes only to find he had put a bowl in the sink just so he could put a teaspoon in it after he'd made a cuppa!! It irritated the hell out of me, so I just chucked out the bowl and we don't have one in the house anymore. I would add that we use a dishwasher, so why didn't he just put the spoon in it!

Everyone has their irritating little ways, but i would never do anything to deliberately annoy someone I love. Actually, I would have to really dislike someone to deliberately annoy them.

My mother sets people up all the time. Hate it.

I'm reassured to know that people are not generally going out of their way to cause irritation to partners and spouses.

?? no I / we just annoy each other without even trying - and yes we r lucky to able to do so after many many years, but who amongst us is a saint and appreciates everything they have . Case in point this ...year . did I appreciate what I had last year all the time - no! But I did try to always appreciate how lucky I was to still have some of the people I love when so many had gone .

No, I don’t do anything intentionally to annoy my Dh that I can think of, Maybe he will say otherwise I will have to ask him,

??

I don't think I annoy my DH on purpose, but he sure annoys the hell out of me! He says it's not deliberate but I think it must be sometimes. He's driving me mad today. I can't say anything right and he just goes off on one. One of the minor things he does concerns folding wet towels/teatowels. I've told him a million times they won't dry if they're folded but he continues to do it. Arrrggghhh!

I used to work for a woman who swore her husband wore odd socks just to annoy her.

DH annoyed me intensely yesterday.
It was probably unintentional as he thought he was doing the right thing but he wasn't.
I nearly posted on here so that I could have a good rant but thought better of it. Probably just as well because I'd still be reading messages telling me to LTB.

A storm in a teacup.

Apparently I don't know how to load the dishwasher correctly, my OH always rearranges it. So now I just throw all the dishes at the front and leave him to sort them as only he knows how

I don't have a bowl in the sink any more as OH would just leave the dirty water in it - but If I had one I would leave it on its side to drain!

I’m too lazy to deliberately annoy anyone tbh.

Seems a bit pointless to me.

I absolutely would not try to annoy DH on purpose. And I know that the same goes for him, to me. Accidentally - now that's another matter......

goes for me too Davida1968

Me too Davida?
I think we all do things that annoy/irritate our partners but
Not on purpose ( why would you?)
I don’t mind DH rearranging the dishwasher ( he does that daily in any case).

I rearrange the dishwasher.
DH also does a bit of washing up and I always put the things in the dishwasher that he has washed up (if I find them before he puts them away).

If I leave DH to clear up after a meal eg this evening when I had a Zoom choir, I will find some items still in the bowl and the worktops and ceramic hob not wiped down. It really annoys me, but not as much as him always leaving the loo seat up. I wouldn’t say he does it to annoy me but he knows it does, so he must do.
