Places cups of liquids upright in the sink to that the liquid sits there and marinates until we wash dishes / load dishwasher. This includes coffee with milk or just plain cups of milk that weren't finished. That way when we get home from work the milk has been sitting there all day and is curdled and disgusting for us to deal with rather than just dump it down the drain and rinse it out which takes 2 seconds.

This also applies for paper/styrofoam to-go cups from restaurants. Even though the cups are designed to be poured out and thrown away, they are perfectly placed down in the sink with the liquid still in them. Like we are going to run them through the dishwasher and reuse them or something.

I've been bitching about it for 15 years and made no progress

This one... How hard is it to dump your cup, or rinse your dish before putting it in the sink?

I love my husband and he’s a wonderful husband and father, and I do not want to list his dirty habits.

He has to be very clean/sterile for work so I can see where he just wants to be free when he’s home.

I do have to say - he loses A LOT of hair and is in no danger of going bald. I sweep a lot so no big deal but sometimes his hair gets stuck in my foot. Not sure why that hurts like a m’fer but it does. He did not believe me for the longest time either.

I have never lived with a woman in my life that consistently and properly soaks a fricking pot after cooking

Mine refuses to wash off a dish when she puts it in the sink….. what a trash bag.

Leaves shoes literally in every room of the house. And in the decade+ that we've been married, I've never seen her make the bed. I hate that, so I make it as soon as she gets up and out of the room.

The original one, I'd say, is that she's perpetually barefoot around the house (hence leaving shoes as soon as she walks in the door). As a result, by the end of the day, she's got a set of KMart feet what-is. Like a dadgum yard dog. And then she wants to put them on my legs when we're on the couch. No. Go wash those damn things.

She used to tend toward clutter a little, but I trained her over about 20 years. No messy habits now.

Every bare surface is always game for a bunch of shite to be stacked up on it for weeks on end. I'm not kidding. She cleans the shite on the weekend and by Tuesday, I have no counter space to do anything on.

This is why I can't live with mine. He had stuff EVERYWHERE. Like I'd pick up and 10 minutes later every space is full again I swear.

Relationships work better when everyone lives in their own house, now there aren't those issues anymore.

My wife is the exact opposite. The only time she’s barefoot is in the shower, bed, or beach. She usually wears flats, flip flops, or Berks, sometimes tennis shoes if we’re going to be doing a lot of walking; but then changes into her house shoes the moment she gets home.

I always tell my wife if the cops come looking for her, all they will have to do is follow the trail of clothes and shoes.

Mines opposite. Leaves her clean clothes, towels, and bedsheets all around the house. I said we have closets for these things... But they sit there for a week at a time.
