What is your H's most annoying habit?
And what would he say yours would be?

What is your H's most annoying habit? And what would he say yours would be? MH is just messy in general. Leaving stuff just around would be my top complaint. Thank gosh we have separate bedrooms. It just works so well for us. MH would say mine is worrying.

I know he would say mine is that I take too long to get ready.
My complaint about him is not really a habit but he likes to be very detailed when he explains things and sometimes takes a while to get to the point. Sometimes leaves me thinking "just get to the point!" lol

DHs priorities aren't always where I think they should be f9r example in the evening he works on lunches and things for the next day when I think he should be more focused on helping me get the kids to bed.
He would say I spend to much time on my phone. He would be right.

H needs to do things 100% correctly, all the time, which is frustrating when I'm on a timeline for bedtime or feeding kids or whatever.
He would probably say the opposite about me, I'm willing to half ass things just to get them done!

He won’t get up in the morning. I have never gotten to sleep in because his ass just can’t wake up. He is also useless in the middle of the night. Completely useless.
As for me, I’m a slob!

H's would be his impatience-it especially drives me crazy in the car because he doesn't always make what I would consider the safest decision and then I turn into a backseat driver.
Mine...is probably my sharp tone and quickness to snap when I get stressed. It comes out before I even have time to think. Sometimes I wonder if it's an anxious reaction.

LOL cara, H has some ADHD tendencies and I just tell him to get to the point sometimes. But I can be too blunt and not always the best with my words, so 😬. See above post.

For H.... H usually doesn't completes a project. Like when he painted our bedroom, he never did the closet doors, so they still have no handles. But the weird thing is that when he is doing the project, he is a damn perfectionist.
For me....putting things were they belong when I am done with them. I mean, they get there eventually.
I need to work on that though. Because DD1 is doing the same thing and it drives me crazy. Haha

My H’s would be not following through on things he says he’ll do. It’s not big things but rather throwing old leftovers away or fixing little things around the house.
He would definitely say it’s that I’m late to most things (besides work). My internal clock always thinks I have more time than I actually do...

My husband - Is wonderful but so so so so slow at everything. I can get myself and 3 small children ready in the morning in the amount of time it takes him to assemble his breakfast. It is not a great look.
Me - He thinks I'm more tired than I should be. I have had some morning insomnia issues since having this last baby that essentially have me awake by 3am most mornings and then by 8pm I am exhausted. I'm also great at losing things and not handling "administrative items" for myself - e.g. he reminded my at least 100x that I needed my driver's license renewed. I think that's because I take care of all administrative kid items and there's no room left in my brain!
Whew, sorry for the long post!

Over the years I’ve realized it’s my first reaction when I’m anxious. I have anxiety plus I’m a planner so when things are thrown off, it really stresses me out. ETA - I’m also impatient 😂

H worst habit would be that he procrastinates. Like waits to the very last minute to get ready if he has to be somewhere or just puts things off until they absolutely have to be done. It drives me batty because I'm such a planner and very well organized and like to be ahead of things.
My worst habit he would probably say is nagging him about picking up after himself. I SAH so I do most of the cleaning but the man can make such a mess in the bathroom.

i try to think of that saying, "is it true, is it necessary, is it kind?” when i am about to get on my H's case about something minor. like ranting about him leaving dirty clothes on the floor is not going to have any effect besides raising my own blood pressure.

I hate unexpected changes to plans. It's hard for me to adapt in the moment. So sort of not the best thing with a small child lol.
