Obviously I adore my hubs but I'm having a cranky day I guess. Some days I wonder if I married a professional nag! We joke about it a lot but right now he's on my back about how I should cancel my gym membership bc I haven't gone in 2 months...and it's driving me nuts! Doesn't he get that sometimes I slack off but I'll get back into it again? Ahh!
Does anyone else's husband nag them about ridiculous things?? I thought that was stereotypically the girls job! Help me feel like I'm not alone, ladies... I'm also thinking this could be somewhat humorous!
The fact that I don't close jars securely, seal ziplocks bags properly etc. Also gives me crap whenever the cats make a mess because I'm the one who wanted them.
Ok, so not married yet, but we live together... I have a BAD coffee habit... (he hides until I've had my first cup) but I can't seem keep from spilling it all over the house... not a lot... drop hear, drop there... I don't see it when it happens, but then Poof! mess. I can't blame it, but that's def a pet peeve for him. :o)
@Treasure43: Oh yeah I know what you mean! My husband said I can get myself a new purse for Christmas though!
I am THE WORST about putting my clean clothes away. I like to go through the folded pile in the basket 
DH gets on my case about it ever. single. week.
@meliss - I am SO happy to hear that you are bad with lids too! FI gives me such a hard time...just over the weekend there was a weird smell in our fridge, and turns out I left the lid loose on a jar of pickled jalepenos and they tipped over. Oops..
@Lindsay12.31.2010: 
. Apparantly my husband almost dropped jars before that I left open while grabbing them from the fridge. I always tell him, "well don't hold them by the lid then". There was one time when I was shaking a bottle of salad dressing that was half open, when the lid flew off and dressing rained everywhere...All over the dinner table and over my head. I started laughing but DH looked so angry and just refused to laugh. And you know how that goes, the grouchier he looked and the more I tried not to laugh, the worse it got. I sat there covered in Japanese soy dressing and laughing hysterically till I cried, him not twitching a muscle, and then I had to get up and clean it.
@jackie-o: Omg me too!!!! I don't mind doing laundry, just don't ask me to put it away! Seriously I would pay someone to put away my laundry just so I don't have to do it. DH hates it.
DH gave me heck last night and then slept on the couch because the kitten and I were playing fetch with her toy mouse while he was sleeping. Normally nothing wakes him up, but apparently not last night.... So I got in trouble. I thought it was actually pretty funny. He also likes to bug me about the "presents" I leave him in the hallway. When our compost or garbage bin fills up I tie up the bag and put it in the hallway for him to take outside. I'm unclear as to whether he finds it endearing or annoying ;)
Not married yet, but we've been together 6 years (will be married in 19 days! yeah!) so it's given him plenty of time to find things to be pesky about....
One of the major ones is that I don't put his things back where they "go" (I stay with him on weekends and through the week sometimes when work allows). But the thing is, I am the one putting them back in their correct place - medicine in the medicine cabinet, DVDs in the media box, magazines on the coffee table. He leaves his things EVERYWHERE and can never find them, so I attempt to put them in a logical location and he gets upset. I don't get it.
He also nags about stupid things like me paying for Netflix when we live beside a Blockbuster. Granted, I don't rent a ton of movies, and some months it may be cheaper just to pick up a movie in the store. But I like to have the OPTION of renting 14 and paying the same price, like when I have a girls night and we can't decide. I appreciate the flexibility and he looks at the cost.
But, hey, I have to admit, sometimes I can be a nagger too...lol
@meliss, That is hilarious, and totally something I would do! FI knows better now, he never lifts anything by the lid, just to be on the safe side...but he does make fun of me every chance he gets, LOL.
Our dogs. He always says "well if *someone* didn't want them so bad, we could blah blah blah" and then I remind him that he's technically talking about himself. Our second (and last) dog was totally HIS idea. :p He's just grumpy when he has to pick up after them or they bark while he's asleep or something.
Also, getting ready. I spend 10000% longer getting ready than he does and he is always like "well I'll get ready when you are in your third stage." Yes, he calls them stages. I don't think I'm that bad! If I want to look good or we're going out, it's about an hour and a half, including: shower, hair drying and straightening, makeup, and clothes. (I have extremely thick hair that is getting pretty long).Just because he can get ready in 10 mins doesn't make me crazy! :p Or so that's what I tell myself.
Gosh, when I saw this thread, I had to stop & think about it & the answer is--nothing. He doesn't nag at all. He just kind of goes with the flow.
Wish I could say that about myself.
My husband nags me about my pocketbooks, he says theres no need for that many and that i don't use them all, which i do. Does he want me to leave the house with 15 purses on my shoulder. His favorite rant is how he has one wallet and it goes with everything. My answer is good for you.
@MissAsB: Nice! Is that going to be his gift to you? As in you pick it out?
Taking my vitamins ... I am horrible at remembering to take my vitamins, and DH will nag me about it because we are planning on getting pregnant soonish and it impacts his future child if I don't take them 
he says sometimes i nag and dont give him enough time to do something - i tell him if he does what i tell him to do the first time i say it then we wouldnt have a problem :)
@bakerella: haha I'm so happy to hear I am not the only one who distastes putting my laundry away!! SO absolutely HAAAATES that :) I also enjoy leaving him my bags of cat poo from the litter box outside the front door for him to throw away. He adores that!
@meliss: SO also gets on me for the cat because I wanted him. Well guest what SO you said we could have him AND you picked him out so shut it!
He mainly nags me about the laundry and about just being cleaner in general. He is much cleaner than I.
@Ms Mini: I keep mine by the bed on my nightstand and when I wake up in the morning I grab my cell phone, take my vitamins, give one to FI, and the roll back over to cuddle :) If they are right there it makes it super easy to remember. Anytime I move them, though, and I totally forget.
FI nags me about not listening (if I am on my laptop of phone) and taking too long to get ready.
@MissTatas: I have to take them with food or else they make me pukey! I try to put them on the counter so I can remember to take it with my breakfast, but that is hard for me to remember as well!
Haha, these are great guys! It makes me feel less alone.
@judya64: I love this... "does he want me to leave the house with 15 purses on my shoulder" - hahaha... mine is the exact same way, he always wants to make sure I "use" every single thing I own!
Oh God...I think all man nag more than women. Or maybe it's just my husband!! ANNOYING!!!!!!!! lol :)
That i'm always late. I try, I really do. I just underestimate how long it takes me to get ready sometimes 
My husband nags me about leaving dishes in the sink, even if I rinse them.. I cook, he does the dishes most of the time...
I never refill the bathrooms with toilet paper and he's always the one to run out while on the can, lol.. He gets so frustrated when he has to yell for me and I just giggle about it...
Also, I leave my pajamas on the end of the bed every morning. He asks me almost every morning why I can't put them away...
washing the dishes. he's always all over my back about leaving dishes in the sink. last week he instated a "no dishes in the sink before we go to bed rule". fine. i wont leave dishes in the sink to "soak" overnight. but then, a few days ago, AFTER i washed dishes, he decided he wanted a treat, made a big mess, and left pans, bowls, silverware, etc in the sink. so the next morning im all, WTH? so basically, the no dishes in the sink rule is just for me! um, just b/c im the wife doesnt mean its my job to wash the dishes. i dont like washing dishes. i much prefer to load EVERYTHING in the dishwasher...so ive decided to ignore his stupid rule. he can wash the dishes if they bother him so much. HMPH!
HAHA! No joke, I tell my husband he "nags more then most girls"
For some reason my husband throws a hissy fit about my car. I have shoes, clothes, papers, and random stuff in my car. Yes, I wish my car was more tidy, but he doesn't drive it, and he hardely rides in it! Plus, the mess is only in the trunk and back seat, never in the passanger seat.
Yet he complains and complains about my car. Once a week he asks "are you going to clean your car???" in a little whinney voice. Its too funny :)
@FutureMrsMorgan: Sounds like it! He doesn't even like if if I soak a pan that needs soaking... He'll go in the kitchen and scrub it until it's clean instead of letting it soak for 20 minutes so it's easier to clean... I just let him have at it while I sit on the sofa with a glass of wine watching TV! haha
@sassy411: Same here. My husband doesn't nag at all! Now me on the other hand....hmmmm. :)
My FI nags me about blowing my nose while at the table, or in bed, or right next to him while he is studying. I told him if he stops farting at the table I will stop blowing my nose all over the house ( I mean our bedroom size studio apt.).
He also anytime after around 9:30 if I say I am tired he is like o well you better go to bed, which drives me crazy. I think I am old enough to know when it is bedtime!!
@bakerella: OMG...hilarious on the 'little presents' you leave for your husband.
My husband, who used to be a firefighter and now a fire marshal, gets on my case if I forget to unplug: the coffee pot, any light, the TV, pretty much anything with a plug. It's become habit now but I do get reminded if I forget to do it. <gasp!>
SO gets on my case about being late... it's usually 10 min or so and it's not too often, I've been working on it. I hate folding and putting way laundry HATE IT. And i don't always put things back where i got them. Can i blame all this on the fact that i had a SAHM? It works for the guys right?
@bohemianbailie: That's hilarious! What does he say when you tell him this? haha
@Jenn23: He says sometimes he cannot help it!! Yeah typical guy comeback huh, I tell him though its all fun and games now but when we have a kid he will be holding them in so at least one of us has manners!!
@bohemianbailie: Too funny! Yep, if he doesn't kick that habit, your future kids will have fun with that! :)
It drives him crazy if I don't warm up the vehicles long enough. I hear daily during the winter, "You're going to blow the head gasket!" lol.
He also gets a little miffed about the obscene amount of clothes, hair product, makeup, shoes, and bags that I have. He met me that way though, so he's going to have to live with it!
Most of the time it's me getting on his case.
He's always bugging me about picking up my dirty dishes and trash from around the house. He also gets upset when I leave almost full water bottles lying around...hehehe.
My husband bugs me about being messy. And it's completely founded.
My parents named me after one of the most destructive hurricanes since 1961... I come by it honestly.
