Things that could end a good relationship.

[FlyingDumbo]

This is lighthearted, love my husband but a few bones if contention:

My husband, He likes miracle whip, I can only use Hellman's mayo. He ruins egg salad, tuna, chicken salad with that miracle whip. Ewwwww. Inedible.


The snooze button, I'd like to smash it with a hammer. He will hit hat button a million times without really waking up. I hear it once and I am WIDE awake.

Thermostat issues! I'm always cold, he is like a furnace. Finally, while pregnant, I learned what hot feels like and we could agree on temperature. It's a constant battle.


So fess up, what about you?

Ugh, Miracle Whip would be a deal-breaker for me. Fortunately, DH is a fellow hater.

Chewing ice. I can handle just about anything but I can't even be in the same room with someone chewing ice. Or if he had really poor hygiene that would be a deal breaker. Like basically if he's been working and needs to shower or wash his feet and I tell him he will go do it but if it was a situation where he reeked and refused to do anything about it that would be too much.

Putting mayo on fries.....just grosses me out!

 

[TheAviator]

Chopping their hair off, getting fat, refusing to wear heels.

Talking with food in his mouth- grr!!

Chewing fingernails.

Loudly eating chips, pistachios, cherries- anything really.

Mispronouncing or misusing words.

Thinking that ANY person with a last name that he's heard before MUST be related to so-and-so...

Swinging his arms and clapping his hands loudly, usually while he's waiting for me to get ready.

Good thing I'm so perfect!

I really wish my boyfriend would floss.
I don't think I could give him up over that though lol
I love him too much

Being a Yankees fan. I almost dumped DH when he told me! Thankfully he doesn't watch baseball anymore and doesn't care about scores. He made up for it by hating the 49ers and rooting for the Raiders.

Hanging the TP down the wall instead of over the top!

DH was a Raider fan in high school. I told him, that I would never be able to be with him if he continued to follow that team. I call myself a "Raider Hater".... We're Bronco fans. Followed closely by the Cardinals (who aren't good at all)...

Circus Peanuts!! The smell alone almost puts me over. I still love DH though, but when he eats them I am in another room.

 

[mrsarbogast]

My dh loves miracle whip and ruins everything with it too. Gross!!!!

He leaves his dirty socks everywhere in my house. Jeans across the kitchen table, and shirts off beside the bed. I've been picking up after him for 21 years, hahaha, but I <3 him anyway.

Acting like this........

As for *MY* DH, it drives me nuts when he goes through his iTunes and plays music, but he never plays a whole song.

My DH does the same thing and it drives me nuts!

Oh I'm not under any delusions that my team is actually any GOOD. Just have to root for them anyways.

My other is bananas. They are disgusting. They will not be in my house. DH knew that when we started dating. Thankfully he doesn't care for them.

My DH for some odd reason thinks the word vacation goes with not having to shower. I think not!

DH burns all bread items and likes it that way. Toast, waffles, pancakes, tortillas, muffins etc. After 25 years he just cannot seem to get it through his thick skull that just because he likes it that way, does not mean the rest of us do. He and the smoke detectors are practically intimate with each other.

DH is a slob, a clutterbug and a hoarder of all things "guy". Computer parts, tools, car parts, cables, extension cords etc. We share a den and our desks face each other - he is under threat of death if his stuff creeps onto my side. He is also a clothes horse and takes up 3/4 of our closet.

DH is a morning person, I'm a night owl. He stayed up until midnight on our first date, I do believe that was the first and last time that happened.

DH is a fly by the seat of his pants traveler and I am a planner. Backpack and a change of socks he is good to go. My binders with lists, itineraries and my methodized packing system baffles him.

DH also likes Miracle Whip but this is one battle I have won, that stuff does not touch anything that I am going to consume or serve. It is on his sandwich, thats it. If he wants it on something else, he will need to add it himself, to his portion, after I have made whatever it is with Best Foods mayo and only Best Foods!

"they" whomever the heck "they" is, say, opposites attract.

Yeah, being a Yankee fan is a dealbreaker!

I hate people that just can't be quiet, this includes people that like to whistle, hum, or tap for no reason. Unfortunately I married a drummer, so he's like a human metronome most of the time.

I use to have a simple test.

I would offer to drive on a second or third date with someone I was still trying to figure out. I would then stop to get gas and pause briefly at the pump before getting out of the car. If he offered to get out, or automatically got out of the car to pump the gas for me, I knew he was keeper.

Sadly enough several young men, failed this "test" miserably.

 

[Toy Story Fan]

My DH changes channels during every commercial. I have hid the remote and he goes batty!! Instead of watching the commercials on the channel we are watching, we watch the commercials on 10 different channels and usually miss the beginning of the show back from the commercial break. Why?
He also leaves his toothbrush on the bathroom counter instead of putting it in the holder...again...why? After 27 years, no change...must be love!

 

[njmom47]

I'm gonna get flamed I'm sure, but he's a lefty and pretty much everything he does is different than I think it should be!

Mostly though, he smokes, and I HATE it.

 

[goofyintoronto]

Lol. This is a pet peeve of mine too. I change it when im visiting ppl. Dont care whose house it is. Lol.

Hanging the TP down the wall instead of over the top!

Yup. I agree. My bf would be out the door if he acted like that too.

Acting like this........
