re: Let's talk pet peeves you have about your spouse

Car keys.

She never can manage to always put them in the same place... ever. May be in the black hole of her purse, on the fridge, in a drawer, somwhere in the car or maybe the laundry room. I got so frustrated I damn bear jb welded them into the ignition but I compromised with myself and instead attached the keys to the dash of the car with one of those pen chains you see in the bank.

Every once in a while she’ll want to do some kind of yard project (girl power vibes) and she just massacres it, and I end up working twice as hard to finish it properly and clean up her mess.

- Our Amazon delivery driver spends more time at my house than I do.
- My wife cannot be on time. Ever. She has no concept of time management. We’re late for everything no matter how much notice she has, and what irritates me most is she seems to give zero fricks about it.

She's playing the long game. She hopes you will one day start leaving without her because she is always late. When you do, she's getting an oversized package delivered for sure.

Shoes fricking everywhere. The house feels like a storage closet just for her shoes. She must have 70 pairs. Had to tell her no new shoe purchases without throwing a pair away. Constantly have to remind her to get the oil changed in her car. Really anything to do with her car. If she’s pissed she spends money like it’s fricking therapy. It’s weird.

He doesn’t ever want to leave early to be somewhere. He looks it up on google and plan to be right on time. Sometimes traffic is worse than you expect.

I thought we were married to the same woman for a sec. Mine doesn’t leave the tv on lmao

I can't stand to ride in a car. I do not mind driving 24 hours straight, can barely tolerate riding in a car for 10 minutes. This means that I am always driving if my wife and I are together. She will be in the passenger seat either asleep or staring at her phone....ideal driving conditions either way because its basically the same as being alone....but every so often, for some reason, she will look up from her phone and if there is a brake light on in the county somewhere she will scream like someone has stepped on her bare toes....its almost like a tourettes situation. It can be pretty shocking if you aren't prepared for it. This happens from time to time when we have been fully stopped behind the car with the brake lights on for a couple of seconds or so. This also happens if someone happens to be moving in a vehicle when she happens to tear her gaze away from the phone.

My wife can not stand for someone to drive to a destination using a different route than the one she would have used. Never mind if the one she would have used is longer and involves more traffic. She simply can't tolerate it.

She will, from time to time, make you think she is on the brink of dying from starvation....yet when you ask her what she would like to eat her answer will always be "it doesn't matter" but when you start making suggestions both of you realize it apparently matters a great deal...the list of potential places to eat or things to eat is enormous compared to the small, finite list of restaurants or meals which would suit her in the moment, information that only she could possibly possess, by the way. She will also not tolerate "I'm not hungry" or "I am trying to lose a few pounds, I ain't eating anything"....if she is hungry or if it simply time to eat it is most likely going to be a production and it is going to require that I decide what we are going to eat, subject to her approval of course. and I am going to be required to eat something....and finally I have to be content after the meal or even during it to listen to what is wrong with it even though she had plenty of opportunity to come up with a solution to her hunger herself....

There are no tall item short item shelves. You are freakin weird.

If you carry a measuring tape to correct her imperfect parking........you are the problem. I'm just glad her car gets home in one piece.
