Things your significant other does that drives you cray

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).
Wow.

That's awesome.... gets me choked up a little
 
No matter the movie, whether she's ever heard of it or not. She ALWAYS guesses the plot or the murderer or the twist withing 10 minutes of the movie starting. No idea how she does it. Makes me feel dumb and I hate that.
 
My wife uses me as a crutch to sit down and stand up. If I ever kick the crutch out from underneath an invalid it will be her while doing that.
 
I found her debit card sitting in the cup holder of the car about 2 weeks ago. I put it in her wallet in her purse. Later that day, shes looking for it and I show her where I put it. She tells me that is NOT where it goes, it always goes in such and such a pocket not where I put it. I inform her I found it in the cup holder so she obviously doesnt keep it in such and such a pocket. She starts a fight. Typical. Since that day I have seen her debit card in the cup holder, in the door handle, on the kitchen table, on the dresser in the bedroom and by the sink in the bathroom. Obviously she never puts the god damned thing away. So yesterday she texts me at work "Where is my debit card!!!!" I reply, "maybe you should check the pocket that you told me its always in because thats where it goes and you always put it there." "You're such a ****ing *******, thanks for your help!" I knew exactly where it was. On the kitchen counter. Psycho.

lol

I get calls from my wife asking if I know where such and such is all the time. It drives me insane. She misplaces things so much that 90% of the time she hasn't even bothered looking where the thing goes before calling because she assumes she lost it.

I would say I solve this about 85% of the time by simply asking "tell me where you know for a fact it is not". Then I have here look there and boom, there it is.
 
How about when you are talking on the phone and in the middle of the conversation she shifts gears in her mind, doesn't bother telling you that, and then acts like you are insane because you didn't follow along.

Her: So can you pick up Billy from his practice.
Me: Ok when?
Her: Well I told him you might be a little late so call him. You will probably need to take a couple of his friends home.
Me: Ok which friends?
Her: Oh there is Amy, and Brittney, and I think Riley and her sister are staying overnight.
Me: Why would they stay overnight?
Her: Well we said that a couple could.
Me: What are you talking about, why would Billy have girls stay overnight?
Her: Billy? No of course not, that would be Suzie. Of course not Billy what are you thinking.
Me: I just asked who I had to take home from practice.
Her: Oh you meant now? Really? Of course I was talking about tomorrow night for Suzie's birthday party.
Me: Oh yeah, of course.

Me: What?! Are you freakin' retarded? Jesus Christ, seriously. You have the communication skills of a 2nd grader.

Last line fixed for how me and MsSerp convos go. Infuriating.
 
Like most people, my girlfriend keeps the ringer on her phone turned off. But unlike most people, she flat out REFUSES to put it on vibrate. She doesn't like it for some reason. So her phone is always completely silent.

So of course she loses her phone once a week, and it takes us hours (sometimes days) to find the ****ing thing cause we can't just call it. It doesn't matter how many times she loses it and all the problems it causes (not being able to contact me, her boss, etc.), somehow simply turning the phone on vibrate is not an option.

But she's awesome and my best friend.

I do the same exact thing with my phone. No ringer. No vibrate. But I never lose it.

How often does she have conversations with you that never existed, then she gets pissed when you tell her she didn't answer you or you never discussed something?

My wife recently claimed to have answered me three time when I finally asked her if she was going to answer me on the fourth request in a row.

Bro.. please dial it down a notch for those of us that are sippin on.
