Seriously. Too funny. This woman's descriptions of her husband's quirks had me loling.
He's a good sport about it, too.
It made me think about Me and P. He can be sooooo annoying, but I still love him. I love him and his retardedness. I love him in spite of it. And let's face it, I'm no peach either. I can be annoying too. No, really I can be. Really.
But, since this is my blog, I'll be listing HIS annoying quirks. Ok, maybe a couple of mine, too.
1) He has to be validated every time he speaks. No matter what he says, it must be aknowledged.
For example: P: "I like oatmeal" me: no response P: "I really like oatmeal" me: nothing P: "Baby, I like oatmeal" me: eye flick to his face, then back to what I'm doing P: "I like oatmeal, baby, did you hear me?" me: "YES. so what?" P: "you dont have to get mad."
2) He has an inablity to make or commit to a decision. It's so stressful for him, that he'll go on and on and on about it for hours. "Should I go to the gym today? I don't know if I want to. But I need to. Maybe I'll go. What if there's no one there to shoot baskets with? Maybe I should skip it" etc, etc, etc.
3) He NEVER lets anything go. EVER.
Seriously, never. He will bring shit up from 4 yrs ago, and get just as upset about it.
4) He gets singularly obsessed with things. Right now it's his DUI and all the trouble it's brought. I have to listen to him bitch about beer commercials, bars, other drivers on the road, cops, judges, lawyers, it's exhausting. And frustrating, when he brought it on himself in the first place.
5) He is a rabid basketball fan. I am not so much. He seems to think that making all our conversations about Lebron James is going to make me a fan. It's not. It only makes me hate it more.
6) He leaves shit laying around. His clothes, his shoes, his games, his dishes. I am not his mother.
Ok. That's enough annoying things about P. Here's some of the shit he has to put up with.
1) I get irritated very easily. I can go from nice to bitch in about 2 seconds.
2) I have a certain way I like to do things. If he deviates from that, he gets the "fine, I'll just do it myself"
3) I am bossy.
4) I refuse to eat hamburgers without cheese on them. If I order a cheeseburger and they do not put cheese on it, I will throw a tantrum, and throw the food away. Which has prompted him to have me do the "bag check" while we're still at McDonald's, so he can just take it in and say "I ordered a cheeseburger"....and yeah, I make him go in.
5) I don't like to phone in orders for take out. That's P's job.
6) I like to make the bed.......every day. And by make the bed I mean, I will pull the sheets and blankets out, and retuck them. He hates to make the bed. He thinks that making the bed is how I punish him for basketball.
(he might be right)
7) I am an eye roller. I roll my eyes all the time...it's kind of a reflex. So when I roll my eyes at him, he says "ok guess I'm stupid then"
8) We both play video games. I have a way I like to play them.
a) if it's a fighting game, like Mortal Kombat, I just press buttons. I don't try to do any of the x,x, square, circle, triangle moves. P does. P gets pissed when he's trying to do that, and my button mashing makes my character (always the girl) kick his character's ass.
b) if it's a story game...I like to do the missions in order. I like to follow the game guide. So he will say "ok tell me what the guide says" and then he doesn't do it! He would rather fuck around and explore the game. When he does this, I get mad and turn off the game. It's annoying for him.
9) I expect him to read my mind, and to just know when he's done or said something that I perceive to be hurtful. It's immature, I know.
So there it is. He's annoying as FUCK, but I love him. I'm a bitch with a capital B and he loves me.
I think that says alot about us. That we work, even though we each have our tics that drive the other one crazy. I'd rather live with P and his annoyingness than ever live without him, and he feels the same way about me.
Oh, did I mention, we are celebrating 6 years together, on the 26th!

What? no comments?? No one has any annoying quirks to share? They can even be about me :)
ReplyDeleteNik you're too cute!!!! i love this blog:) i like how you can really take a hard look at yourself and admit to what some might find annoying or hard to deal with!! not enough people take a look in the mirror...they might find that what they see isn't so perfect and maybe be more slow to judge others:)
