What is your partners most annoying habit?

Think I'm married to DillytheGardeners husband the constant sniffing/coughing gets really annoying. Also no organisational skills of tools/stuff in his shed/garage so untidy, can never find anything so then buys another. He has so many duplicate items.

I cal my DH half a job Stewart cos he only ever does half a job, enuff said.

I call mine half job Bob for the same reason

I call mine a "Tuit" because he's always just going to get round "tuit"!

I totally agree VALCHOC. I’d love mine back, annoying traits too.

Only doing half a job ? He’s very willing, but I feel like it all needs doing again. We take turns so I know when it’s mine turn it gets done properly.

And ignoring anything that needs fixing, it all needs pointing out to him. I genuinely think he doesn’t see things need doing. Then I have to get a man in ? Good job he has good points.

Kate1949, I’m reminded of a male journalist saying (writing) that a really good way to infuriate your wife was to do some hoovering of the bits that often get left, e.g. under beds, and then say to her - all smugly virtuous - ‘Goodness me - it’s been a long time since anyone hoovered under there, hasn’t it?’
? - it did make me laugh though.

I won’t list them all? but by far the worst is not listening . I get half way though telling or asking him something and he is gone. He hears half a sentence and then decides what the rest will be. Invariably wrong !

He also: HAS to have the remote...tells me about a brass band job by saying "you know I'm out tomorrow/tonight/whenever don't you?" I reply " oh yeah, what was my reply? Can't remember? Then you HAVEN'T told me, otherwise you'd know my reaction to a last minute job !"

Mine is the prince of procrastination! Every excuse under the sun ....and a few more for any job of any significance I ask him to help me with or do himself! He's great when he finally submits to my iron will ? but the ritual of put off and avoidance drives me nutz!!

Too much explanation. He is a tool maker and insists on explaining all his problems to me - if I use this thread then … or if I do that then… whilst I understand he wants to talk things through to get it straight in his head, why does he also do this to our guests who have no idea what he is talking about. I learned the difference between using two right hand threads and two opposite threads this morning over breakfast (are you keeping up), but please don’t ask me to explain it ?

This one is one of my DH's, too. If I ask a question that just requires a "Yes" or "No", I get a lecture on the topic and at the end I still don't know what the answer is!

Sago ?

^OP here as we’re all on a roll I will share this one….he pulls his nose hairs usually whilst stationary at traffic lights!
He then sneezes and grimaces.^

Only annoying habit really, he constantly pulls the sheets out of the bottom of the bed because he likes them around his ears then complains that his feet are cold..... I keep telling him that no matter how hard he pulls them sheets dont stretch and if his ears are covered then his toes wont be and that he should just scooch down the bed a bit

Far too many to mention. I suppose the most annoying thing is his seeming inability to try and correct any of them.

Leaving EVERY drawer and door open
Never making the bed or tidying the bathroom after himself
Not cleaning kitchen counter tops or wiping the table
Can be very helpful in other ways when asked though

We do lots of crosswords/ puzzles at mealtimes - he just has to hold the pen, and will quite often hover his hand over the puzzle while thinking.
If I fill something in he can't read it apparently, but strangely enough my handwriting is trusted to write the Christmas cards!

CRUMBS!!! (sorry to shout)
Wears wrong glasses.
Distance instead of reading
so CRUMBS are invisible to him.
A quick swipe of tea towel or flick of the hand on to floor appears to be sufficient ?

Sweet wrappers

Open drawers nay problem, closing them, Nope.
quick elbow or foot, (mine)
when passing deals with the
problem

Watching sci-fi or violent films, half finished DIY, hoovering the middle of rooms, loads the dishwasher so that only half of the dishes fit.
Nightmare at night as he's always on my side or diagonal across the bed. Then just when he's moved over he wraps himself in the duvet so I'm cold and have no covers. I end up waking him up to sort it out.

Hahahahahaha, ohhhh heck.... Apart from the blowing nose annoyance, I think Mr S falls into every other category hahahaha....

Apple must have made two, my DH has the other one!

Mine will help anyone do anything but when I ask him to do things he promises to do them but never seems to get round to it

Mine does all the usual- putting dishes in sink instead of dishwasher, sneezing VERY loudly, watching too much sport etc, etc. I've learned to live with these habits and don't get annoyed any more, but the one thing I just can't tolerate is how he has to scrape round his plate several times in order to get even the tiniest drop of sauce/gravy left. Honestly, you'd think he'd never been fed! I'm sure he'd lick the plate if he thought he could get away with it ???

He can't multitask. With a list of things to in town, a rare occurrence for me, we can only do 1 thing per visit. Others have to be pre planned one at a time. What a waste of petrol and time.

My other half spends his life and part of mine trying to find missing keys!! Seems to have a problem with just hanging them on the key hooks after use, somehow I don't have this problem! His tombstone will maybe read here lies ' Have you seen?'!!!!! Many other annoying traits, too many to list! As my late mother liked to say ' they all come from the same mother '! as they obviously have the same inherited genes!!! She was definitely right!!?
