Things your significant other does that drives you cray

Getting mad at me, acting sulky but refusing to tell me what I did wrong.

Really though, she's great. Cleans up after my sloppy self, cooks me good food and doesn't complain when I gain weight. I love dat girl a lot.
 
Oh!! Maybe this is just a newlywed thing, but she constantly stresses herself out thinking she's pregnant. Every month this happens.

My wife is so smart, or I'm so dumb, that no matter the argument, no matter how right I am and no matter how wrong she is .... I will always turn into the ******* who doesn't know anything about anything and is a dick head to top it off. I'm not sure how it happens. But it happens and its real. Like I said I love her but I want to slam my face through a wall about once a week.

End or start every sentence in the argument with a "I love you" or say something nice in a while. Greatly reduces feeling like a dickhead but it still fails to make you right.
 
When she comes over to me, she wants to the dishes all the time. I just want to spend time with her, watch a movie, have sex. That kind of stuff but she just thinks she is showing her love so I have been doing the dishes even when it's not my turn before she comes over to me and it kinda drives me cray.
 
After the Jazz lost on a buzzer beater she refuses to ever invest her time or heart in watching a Jazz game on TV ever again. I think she's a lot smarter than I am.

Dude, you're a newlywed. Don't get used to it. It will all change.

This, however, will not.

I used to have this problem. It took almost ten years of marriage, but I finally figured out that I am, as a matter of fact, an *******.

It doesn't have to change. Her parents still act like that, and so do mine. Just takes work from both sides.

Ignorance is such sweet bliss. Bless your heart, Hantlers.

Let me preface this by saying. I love my wife.

Now lets begin

1. We will run to target for something small, detergent or milk or what not. We will then proceed to spend about an hour looking over all the home decor, cooking stuff, clearance everything. I'll go in planning on spending like $10 on something and we'll leave with a $150 bill and an hour and a half of my life gone. Every single time.

2. She buys so many god damn pillows its insane. Pillows for beds, couches, downstairs couches, guest bedrooms. I bet I have close to 50 pillows in my home. Now she just bought a bunch of bed pillows. you know the ones that look nice when you make you bed? Well she doesn't make the ****ing bed. Ever. So we have all these pillows in pillow cases, all matching, but they are all piled up in the corner of our room never to be used.

3. If she wears something once she washes it. Jeans, skirts, sweaters, hoodies, jackets, whatever. She buys expensive stuff. You know what gets ruined really easy in washing machines and dryers? Nice clothes. That's what.

4. Shes an insomniac. I would go to bed at 8 pm if I could. Not a good mix. So I'll start passing out at like 11 and she'll be deeply offended that I dont want to hang out with her. So I'll go to bed and she'll come to bed around 4 and WAKE ME UP TO TALK!!! What the ****!!!??? No dear I don't want to tickle your back, no I don't care about whatever story you're going to tell me, sure I'll have sex with you but lets make it quick.

5. She always thinks she wants to change her hair. So she'll spend a lot on a haircut or color or something. Then without fail, she will hate it one day later, will go buy extensions and dye it back blonde. Every single time. So its like 2 expensive haircuts in one.

6. She will literally be standing in a pile of her clothes in her closet, she wears something and on the ground it goes. Then she'll have the nerve, whilst standing on her mountain of clothes on the ground to bitch about the 1 or 2 things of mine that aren't even out of place but aren't exactly where she'd like them. Like there are hooks on my closet door, I hang my jeans on them. She doesn't like that. Well guess what, I don't like how 99% of the clutter in our room is your ****.

7. She's a great cook, like really good. But when she cooks, she has to make the most extravagant things. I'm talking like $40-$50 for a home cooked meal, every time. I'd rather go out because at least then I wouldn't have to do the dishes.

8. Even if she's making something small, she DESTROYS the kitchen. Flour on the floor, counters, cabinets, oils all over, eggs on everything. Then guess what. I get to clean it up. Just chill out and get it in the bowl.

9. I'm fine cleaning up after she makes dinner. But I am not fine coming home and having to clean up her lunch. Especially when she calls and complains about my brother, who lives in the basement, when he doesn't clean up his mess. Hypocrite.

10. She cheers against all my favorite teams just to be a dick.

11. She has insane PMS

12. She's smarter than me

I'll add more when they come up.

This was a great post but let me ask you, are you dumb, blind or just naive? My point? How the hell did you not see any of this pre-marriage? Did you only date for six months and then get hitched? Because if you couldn't see the warning signs, you have to be clueless, and if you did see the warning signs, then you knew what you were getting into. Like me. Like seriously, that ****'s almost my wife to a tee. Well the messiness part anyway.

But let me ask you, do you ever put up a fight? You seem kind of like a eunuch to me who just takes it up the rear here. When MsSerp tries pulling some **** like that, I lay into her 1950's style. Ask her, she'll tell you. And I know I'm being a dick. But I don't care because I know I'm right and she's being a selfish or lazy arse and needs a swift swing of the sledgehammer known as my loud voice.

With the child I'm gonna have to figure out how to get my point across more maturely. But I'll tell ya what. I ain't gonna lay down dead like you, that's for sure.

I am dumb, I'm also quite passive. All this **** bugs me but not to the point I really give a **** if that makes sense? I've learned to tune out her bitching and just live my life. Also she just got put on some medication to get her anxiety in order so hopefully that will cool down some of it. Basically I love her to death 90% of the time, and the 10% of the time I want to lose my mind I just go down to the theater room and watch sports. I've adapted. Also I love my kids more than I dislike the annoying **** my wife does. I keep the peace for the sake of the kids.
 
I guess I got lucky.

My wife and I dated for all of 4 months before getting married. In retrospect, I knew almost nothing about her.

Just taking the cleaning piece. She likes to clean. She takes great pride is maintaining a clean and nice house for her family. She is far from perfect at it, but I love how hard she tries, and how little she actually directly asks me to do. She wants the house to be perfect for me when I come home from work. It normally isn't but she tries hard and I love that about her. And I am ok with a messy house from time to time. Good golly, we have 4 kids, lots of friend that come over, and hell, we don't live in a museum.

My peeves about her are truly minor. She doesn't ask follow-up questions. But she still takes care of everything that needs to be taken care of during the day. She beats herself up too much because she is a perfectionist. She coddles the kids too much, but at the same time every single one of them KNOWS they are loved. She coddles me too much (seriously). She is a push-over to help people, sometimes to a fault. She is the glue that holds our family, with 5 VERY strong personalities that often clash, together.

Frankly, I married up in all the ways that matter (except money, dammit). I am happy every day when I come home from work and see she hasn't headed for the hills.

23 years coming up in 25 days (married on leap day, so I guess 24 days).

Wouldn't change a thing (except the money part...heh).
