Is there one little thing about your husband that bothers you?

Of course you'd never say anything. It's not that big of a deal but .... it get's under your skin. Mine is that he is a bad hand-holder when we are walking. I think it's because of our heighth difference (he's very tall). But ... his hand just hangs there. I feel like I'M holding HIS hand and not that we're holding each others hands. At least he wants to hold my hand, right? How about you?

Just one? Just kidding - my husband is great except he leaves his clothes (dirty and clean) everywhere. When we first started living together, I assumed all clothes on the floor were dirty but that is not the case. I usually do the laundry and fold /hang everything up neatly. He just throws clothes around. He put on a clean shirt and decide that he wants to wear another one so what happens to the clean shirt he just put on - floor. I am always asking him "is this clean or dirty?". (Dirty to me is if it has been worn for more than a couple hours or on the floor). However, we do get our laughs from this. I was recently gone for a few days and very happy to get back. When I returned, one of the first things he said was "the clothes on the floor are clean". Guess you had to be there. :)

Hey, that happens around here a lot too. That's one of the things that he DOES know that bothers me. Over the years, he's gotten neater. Plus he works so many hours lately that he doesn't make half the mess he used to. Thanks for sharing.

Funny you mentioned that, my hubby and I are also very different in height and when we hold hands its like i'm holding my daddy's hand. He is 6'4" and i'm 5'3". That probably makes a big difference. But the one thing that REALLY just gets on my last nerve is that he leaves his stuff EVERYWHERE! He leaves his clothes all over the house, takes out the dogs toys to play with him and leaves them, leaves dirty dishes everywhere, and just can't seem to pick up after himself. Not so bad for some, but I am a complete NEAT FREAK!!!

My husband does that too except that it only happens when he sleeps on his back. Has he tried his side? If my guy is snoring, I tap him on the shoulder and he rolls over. We've go it down to a science now.

Mine is that he has to be touching me all the time when sitting on the couch watching tv. Sounds great, lovey dovey, but there are times when I just want to say "move over and give me an inch of room". Of course, like you said, I would never actually say anything, but it bugs me sometime.

Yea, I suppose that could get a little annoying. I think that I would turn that into a nice back or foot massage!:)

Just one? Well, it's his inconsistency. Especially with the kids. It drives me crazy. He says no playing ball in the house one day and then the next he's playing with them. Too many to list here!

I could come up with a whole list. lol. I love my husband a lot, but yeah he really is something. lol. I don't like it when he brags on himself to me. I guess I don't really see the point. It's like, I'm married to him, I know what he has to offer. I don't get it.

My husband is a big hypocrit. I love him but he drives me nuts. If I leave dinner dishes on the table because I am getting our son cleaned up, he gets mad. I leave the room but have every intention of going back to get the dishes. Yet he will leave his soda cans everywhere and his dishes everywhere. I don't know where he gets off giving me a hard time for doing the same things he does. AHHHH!!!
