I said this in the other thread, but he's a packrat! He keeps absolutely everything. Old paper, clothes that don't fit, broken electronics. Drives me nuts. Oh, and combine that with being a slob so that means all his crap is all over.
smoking!!!! This was also my worse habit too, but I quit last week, so far so good!!!
Smoking!Least he doesn't do it around me or in the house. I still hate it and wish he would quit
DH has to drum on things....all....the....time. In the car, at the table, walking through WM...
He also has terrible short term memory.
He's addicted to video games!!!!!!! He can spend HOURS online playing games I don't even understand!
FI picks his nose like he's on a mission. It drives me crazy! I hate it and I always reprimand him for this. Thanksfully he's gotten better.
Also, It drives me UP A WALL when FI is watching TV on the weeekends and has his hand in hit pant the WHOLE TIME. I wonder if he feels manly or something. UGH. the things we put up with. LOL
When he comes home from work he takes his socks off and leaves them in living room AND this is the big one when he opens the mail whatever it is he looks at it and then he leaves it on the counter and or his bereau. Drives me coco bananas!
Love you hunny (even tho he can't see this )
YAYYYYY for quitting! I quit 20 mths ago and it feels great to be a non-smoker and I smell great now!
has to be ... drumming. it's gotten WAY worse since he bought Rock band. Now he can tell me in the car while drumming on the steering wheel to the music on the radio ... what his score would be if we were playing rockband..... seriously?
Smoking. Hands down.
Also he goes to bed waaaay too early. And then bitches if I don't go with him. So I go and turn the tv on low, and he bitches about the light and noise. So basically he just wants me to lay in bed wide awake next to him. Highly annoying.
this seems trivial but it bugs the hell out of me - when going to get ice for a drink out of the freezer, if it misses the cup and drops on the floor, he leaves it...he says "its water, it will evaporate" yeah maybe but not before i step in it a hundred times. i give him the evil eye if he drops an ice cube and i catch him. i mean the sink is right by the fridge, pick it up and throw it in the sink, it can melt there...
@MsPiggy:@Sassygrn: i know my husband would say thats my worst habit - i never smoke in the house though. def more disgusting than dropping ice cubes, but maybe not as annoying.
biting his cuticles. Drives me crazy. I told him he has to stop before we have kids, because there's no way he's going to be holding the baby with open little cuts on his hands from his bad habit. We'll see what happens....
Hahaha I can relate to so many of these:
@amyddlz: my DH also leaves his socks in the most random places...I've found them on the dining room table!
@Magsalot: the hand in the pants thing!! So weird!! He says it's just more comfortable..?
Smoking...which gives him bad breath and I'm convinced it contributes to his snoring. Someone please make him stop, lol.
My FI does the same thing @hilsy85: husband does. He bites his cuticles, he also bites his nails. His hands always look terrible.
omg I love this. Mine smokes, leaves his clothes EVERYWHERE (under the kitchen counter, on the stairs, in the hall) how they even get into those places is beyond me. Then he complains that he has no clean clothes like I would even know where to find them to wash them in the first place. And when he takes off his boots at night he uses his sock to scratch in between his toes, literally grinds his sock all over his toes until I scream.
For those of you that love "drummers"...maybe an ADHD med might help! JK!
My hubby's most annoying habit is that he is a clutter-bug! He has stacks of crap all over the kitchen and in our bedroom. The island has manilla file folders of things he "needs" to do, tools are on the dressers, and boxes of stuff are in the corners of our bedroom. I know for some this may not be considered a habit, but it's become a bone of contention in our marriage!
Any suggestions on how to guide my hubby into a clutter-free life would be appreciated!
I can only pick one?
I guess it would have to be the way he procrastinates about everything. Housework, phone calls, everything. We've been paying for both FiOS and cable for the last month because he keeps putting off canceling his cable account. It really ticks me off when his procrastination results in money lost. :(
Selective procrastination. Soooooo annoying! Housework,yardwork, etc are all done in a timely matter. However, dinner reservations, night out plans, vacations,etc are all last minute. Hearing "I don't know," in response to the worlds easiest decisions makes me nuts!
@hilsy85: I dont know why he does this. His mom told he that he did that as a kid too. I dont get it. However, he has gotten a bit better about it.
@Moja Milosc: My husband leaves his clothes in a huge pile next to his bed - luckily its the far side of the room and i can never see it - as long as i cant see it i'm ok - when he lived by himself he would have all his clothes in a pile on the floor of his closet and would literally stand on it when hanging up work clothes - yes he hangs up his work clothes but ever other piece of clothing belongs to the floor.
Dining room table? Yuck! He leaves them on the couch to. I look at him til he notices I am looking at him and then I kick them off the couch! He doesn't realize that its gross and he needs to stop it . OHHH men
@zippylef:OMG! Same here. And of course I am "type A", organzied, clean, neat, my clothes all have to hang on the same hanger, facing the same direction, my closet is color coordinated. I go through my clothes every few months and get rid of the stuff I don't wear. He has clothes from high school (about 12 or more years ago for him). I try to explain to him very nicely that even if he managed to lose all of the weight he has gained and actually fit into those clothes again they will NEVER be back in style so what's the point? AND to make matters a million times worse we have been renovating our kitchen for the last 9 months so my whole main level is a disaster.
- My husband leaves his socks on the living room floor when he gets home from work. Thus our dog chews them up!
- Swears.
- Smokes.
I can't pick just one so here is my list:
1. Packrat
2. Messy/Unorganized
3. Puts clothes that he just tried on and didn't wear on the back of the bed. This pile just grows and grows until I put them away or they end up on the floor or they end up so wrinkled that they have to be rewashed because even an iron won't do
4. Bad memory
5. Picking at his nails - the sound is worse than nails on a chalk board for me
6. Procrastinating perfectionist - he will put off projects forever and then when he finally does work on them every little detail has to be perfect which means the project is going to take even longer (9 months without a kitchen, will easily be 10 or 11 months before it's done).
But, at the end of the day I love him very much. He treats me great and treats my son great as well. I couldn't as for more (well maybe a little bit neater). And I am sure his list for more would be just as long, if not longer :)

Sorry, there are no users yet.
Mr. A taps things all the time! Usually me. I cannot stand it!!! Also, if he is sitting down, he has to bounce his leg which ends up bouncing the whole table. I get wicked bad motion sickness so it drives me nuts :)
<3 you honey!
