What does DH/FI do that drives you crazy?

ExpatPumpkin

Mine ALWAYS opens a new carton of milk when there's still some good milk left in the 3-day-old carton! Same thing with any and all other food or drinks. Drives me nuts!

Right now he's playing a multi-player game and practically yelling at the other guys "Hallway!"  "No, stairs!"  My ears are bleeding.

nda_roxybabe

Tonight its;"Baby, baby..." What? "baby, manda,..." yes? what? "amanda...." I'm like you want tell me what you want. I'm just going to ignore you then he wonders why I wont respond...oy.

Last week he took a frozen burrito out of the package and left the EMPTY package in the freezer.  He also does this with cereal boxes and juice.And he loves to take glass after glass after glass out of the cupboard and drink a few sips then leave the new cup next to the old cup containing water.  Cups everywhere.

ha ha.. where to start.. the number one thing.. is when I am trying to lay in bed or sitting next to him & he gets fiesty and start pinching me.. to the point where I have to leave the room lol.. or.. his issues when he keeps changing his mind about every 2 minutes lol.

He dries his hands on the dishtowel...when there's a perfectly nice hand towel RIGHT NEXT to it. I'll even bunch up the dishtowel and shove it to the side so he'll be less inclined to use it, but he always goes out of his way to dry his hands on it. Sad, I know.

he likes to pinch my cheeks. it drives me crazy when i think he's going to just stroke my cheek and he actually starts to pinch them.

Carrie, I think our FIs may be playing the same game together. Mine's up there right now doing the same thing, only he wears a headset so he doesn't shout as much.It drives me nuts when I cook a nice dinner and call him into the kitchen to dish up, and in the 2 minutes it takes me to put the finishing touches on the food, he grabs almonds or granola bars or crackers from the cupboard and starts mowing down like crazy. Then he dishes up too much food and leaves what he is too full to eat to be thrown away.

I thought of more.  Uses most of the ice in a tray but not all so he won't have to refill it.  Leaves empty glasses and cups all OVER the damnn place - with literally like 3 on his desk he'll go get another one but won't take the empties to the kitchen.

ExpatPumpkin

Ah yes, the cups. I counted 7 glasses on the counter the other day. 7!!! Only one was mine... He thinks the sink is magic - you just put your glass in or around it, and it comes out clean!

He keeps burnt out light bulbs.  I found an entire drawer filled with them.  And empty glass orange soda bottles... but only orange soda. He has like a 100 glass bottles of all different brands of orange soda. I have no idea why and I asked him and he really isn't too sure about it either, but refuses to throw them out.

carrieoz_76

beatlesgirl - FI *has* a headset on and he's still almost shouting!  He said something about how it had to do with the volume at zero in the game, but to be honest, when he talks about the games at all my thought bubble is like "....... hm, ice cream or no ice cream tonight? ....."

saschaduran

Does he ever put them BACK in the cupboard with water still in them?  Like he needs to save it for another time that will never come?

saschaduran

If he dared keep a burnt out lightbulb I would throw them all in the trash when he left the house.  It takes a lot of self control not to throw out his 3 old laptops.  I may stage a "robbery".

The_Fried_Monkey

He talks to me about serious shiit when I'm drunk.  Like tonight and a couple nights ago.  I've downed maybe 3 pina coladas, several screw drivers and various shots.  So KUI.  He brings up one of our annuities again.  I swear if I hear the words variable or fixed ONE MORE TIME!On another note, my friend got mad at me.  She heard me talking about pina coladas, she thought we left her house and went to a bar without her.  I said no way man.  We went to WalMart, bought a blender, Fridays pina mix, pineapples and cherries, came back to our hotel.  My hotel is better than a bar right now, cause I can pass out on the floor and not get stepped on.  Or go fall asleep by the pool in a lounge chair.  I like being on vacation

carrieoz_76

sascha - no, but he doesn't often put things away.  :)Now I feel bad for bagging on him.  He made dinner tonight.  It was good.

ExpatPumpkin

Just thought of something that didn't drive me crazy but was pretty funny: DH took ALL of his dress pants to the cleaners last Thursday. (He can wear jeans and a button down shirt on Fridays.) So on Sunday night at 10PM he realizes that he has no pants to wear in the morning. We had to go to his parents' house and dig out some old dress pants... Just proves that men have a hard time planning ahead!

beatlesgirl25

Ha ha, I'm the same way when FI brings up stuff like that. I'm all, 'ooh look at the kitty, I mean, zzzzzz....' Yeah, I suppose he might have to yell in order for the other players to hear him, because they all talk at the same time, but I'd venture that he's just really excited to play the game. It's funny when you try to interrupt them during a round when they're killing stuff. FI tries to talk to me but it makes no sense and doesn't have the least bit to do with what I said to him first. Sometimes I go in there and flash him the bewbs just to see if I can break his concentration. It doesn't work, but if I stand there for 10 minutes he'll look eventually.

He's also a sleep farter.  I BEG him not to eat or drink certain things before bed, mostly dairy.  He does anyway.  Then, all night.  If the volume of the fart doesn't wake me up, the smell does.  Not so bad at home, or when we rent a hotel suit, but we only have a king room this trip.  I have the balcony door WIDE open.  I'm gonna shove a cork up his butt in a minute.

futuremrsdawes

oh where to begin- he trims his toenails in the living room -I feel like I'm dodging bullets ugh-when given a life or death situation such as "which ice cream flavor would you prefer to get" it takes him a good 5 minutes to come to a decision (and no that is not an exageration) -he does really really random things sometimes - for example take this conversation that happened prior to us moving into our new house: Me: where are you going? FI: to the car Me: why FI: I'm gonna put these things in the car (points to random items sitting on desk including a watch box, a toy truck and some binoculars) Me: why are you putting them in the car? FI: because they don't really go in any available box and I'm not sure where I would want to put them in the new house Me: So do you plan on putting them in the car temporarily or permanantly? FI: ummm... permanantly Me: You realise it's a Toyota right, not a storage facility? FI: well it seemed like a good idea at the timeoh well I guess his randomness is one of the many reasons I love him :P

lillianchameleon

lol. night farter.  My friend used to date a guy kind of like that.  He used to wake himself up.

phoeny_moonstar

Where to start.... He never finishes a can of pop. Do you think that stops him from popping open another can? Nope. I will ask him to take the sheets off the bed and wash them. When does he try doing this? When I'm sleeping of course! He'll put on really random tv shows that he's never seen before and will never see again exclaim "This is perfect!" and then put on his headset to play a game on the computer? Laundry... I don't neccessarily seperate the laundry the best but I know KNOW not to put in white sox/shirts/etc with red towels and shirts... He turned all of his socks/shirts bright pink. Wouldn't be soo bad I suppose if it wasn't the third time he's done this. I'm going to let him walk around in pink stuff for awhile.

carrieoz_76

Can I just say, these late-night posts are the best.    Bewb-flashing and night farters.  You all crack me up.

ExpatPumpkin

He CAN'T watch just one show at a time. Don't even think for a second about getting into what's on TV if he has the remote. It's ridiculous and I'll never understand why he can't just decide on ONE SHOW and watch it.

beatlesgirl25

Hahaha, the sleep toots.

saschaduran

Ok...I have a gross confession.  Everytime I clip my nails, two of my dogs run over and stare very intensely at the tips of my toes waiting for them to fall so they can eat them.  If I do it in another room they hear the noise and come running.  My husband hates when I allow this  happen.

nda_roxybabe

Sascha- do they end up eating them? Quincy is obsessed with eating his eye gooeys

nda_roxybabe

Oh, and just in case...Quincy is my dog haha.

saschaduran

Yes...they will eat anything except spinach.  But only 2 of them eat the toenails.  Dogs are so nasty.  Yet I still make out with them.

nda_roxybabe

Hahaha my old dog Saki would not eat green gummy bears. He'd eat all the other colors though.

saschaduran

Oh, and just in case...Quincy is my dog haha. Liar!!  It's your man and you know it:)
