I have a fridge magnet that says 'When I married Mr Right, I didn't realise his middle name was Always' LOL!

OK! My bad habits are Snoring (I'm, told I rattle the windows) and procrastination... (Things have to be thoroughly worked out don’t they?), and I spend too much time on the computer. On the good side I do sit on the loo to pee and I aim dirty clothes in the general direction of the basket. Also I am a fair hand at the cooking, DIY, gardening, driving, navigating, helping kids with homework, proof reading, solving computer problems, philosophy and bad poetry. My dear wife… well she is just perfect of course

His snoring annoys me, and when he comes home from work he will eat his dinner sit and watch star trek with the remote. Cause it is his tv when he is there and kids cant watch what they want to and then he falls asleep with the remote still in his hand, and we have to all creep around just in case we wake the stupid man. Then there is the blue toothpaste he leaves in the sink and his clothes on the floor. And even though he washes the dishes after dinner he will wash the greasy stuff first and then the plates, I have told him but I get told that at least he does it. Oh god I had better shut up now as I think I could be here all night.

Difficult to fault EXCEPT: will not close cupboard doors or screw caps back on bottles properly after using them! Result: bleach over bathroom carpet, etc., etc.

My dad bless him used to tape his glasses up like Jack Duckworth! I thoguht I was marrying Mr Perfect - well he told me he was! Soon found out differently but wouldn't have him any other way. He now decides things need doing but it takes months to get them done. But he does use bins, wash baskets and the loo properly. Jane

I am 'lol' at Jean H - sounds just like my dad who drives my mum up the wall because he will NOT get rid of ANYTHING!! My hubby is a gem, will do anything I ask, but there is the problem. Why do men need a list or instructions? There could be something needing doing and staring him right in the face but it wouldn't occur to him to sort it. He also has an annoying habit of saying 'can I ask you a question?' - why doesn't he just go ahead and ask? But he supports me in absolutely anything and we've just been married 20 years so I wouldn't change him. Oh yes, both him and my teenage son have that 'man' thing of asking where things are, they open a cupboard door but don't move anything to look behind!

Where do I start?!! Cigarettes down the toilet,Ashes in the sink,clothes on floor(mind you,they generally make a good attempt at getting the length of the wash basket by themselves!)picking toenails while watching T.V.I could go on but these things dont really bug me,apart from the fags and they all make up what is my husband so I cant complain,he's a cracker!

brian thats not very ladylike is it.it would out you off women for life.you wouldn't get me doing that and if i did by accident would blame the person next to me.as for the toilet seat and missing the target you have no excuse you can put one hand on the wall to steady yourself and the other to aim.you lot know that you really do annoy us women when you come in from the pub on a friday night and go to the loo and leave the mess for us to clean up in the morning!!

bit one sided this thread!! i dont have a partner,but yesterday,i was on my way to tescos,when i bumped into my mates wife,going the same way,so we took a short cut,which is a very narrow lane,and she walked in front of me....first of all she burped so loud,that the echo could be heard miles away...shortly followed by a loud fart,which i can only describe as being like a clap of thunder...not one word from this woman,no pardon me,etc. as for me...yes,i admit to occasionally missing the bowl...but the truth is sometimes its out of our control..you stand there,you hold it,you aim it,you let go...and it hits a window,four feet away...its bad enough at home,but if it happens at a friends,you have to scamper around with toilet paper,trying to dry it off! bryan.
