GTKY- Adore and Annoy

[pinkcat]

What's something that you ADORE about your SO?

What's something your SO does that absolutely ANNOYS you?

[youdontsay]

I adore the fact that MH will pretty much do anything if I ask him too. For example, his days off are Wednesday, Thursday and Sundays so I'll ask him to run some errands on Wednesdays or Thursdays and he does it without complaining when it's technically his weekend.

Nothing about him annoys me except for the fact he doesn't pick up his empty soda cans.

[pinkcat]

I really love that DH are almost always on the same page about things. We usually think the same things are annoying, the same things are fun, like doing the same activities, etc. We can look at each other and know right away if the other person is totally side-eyeing something else or upset about something, and we have so many inside jokes together. In short, we have a lot of fun!

But of course there are some things he does that can be annoying. For example, I hate it when he gets out of the shower- he doesn't dry off at ALL first so just steps out of the shower soaking wet. The rug will still be soaked hours later. How hard is it to use a towel?!

[kawaiikitsune]

I adore how supportive MH always is and how willing he is to do anything I need him to, as much as he is able to. He is my rock. I also love the fact that we are basically the same people;same interests, same hobbies, etc.

However, it annoys the crap out of me when he takes his work clothes off in the closet before a shower and just drops them on the floor instead of taking the extra 2 seconds to put them in the hamper. Why, husband, why?

[notagoddess]

I adore many things about MH, but one thing I really like is that he is super affectionate. He's always hugging me, kissing me, and telling me I'm beautiful. I feel so secure around him.

One thing that drives me nuts is that he doesn't always respond to what I'm saying. So I'll say, let's clean first then go biking, and if he's busy or doesn't think it warrants an answer, he'll just stay silent. So I have to ask, seconds later, OK?? or repeat the question in a more pointed manner. WTF dude, at least grunt in agreement or say I dunno or something.

[shadesofgold]

Adore: His first response is always to ask "what can I do to help?"

Annoy: He hates pictures - taking them, being in them or stopping to let someone else take them. it is very unfortunate. Many experiences and memorable moments have gone undocumented.

[Deleted]

I adore how supportive he is. We've been through a lot with all my medical issues and he's always there for me no matter what.

It annoys me that he has absolutely no idea how to speak in a normal volume while using a headset. Or most of the time for that matter, but it's worse when he's got his headset on.

[Ruca]

Adore: DH can always make me laugh. We'll be driving in the car and he'll make me start laughing so hard, DD will say "mama what's funny?" I'll tell her daddy always makes me laugh and that someday she needs to make sure to find a guy who can make her laugh too! He's also the most loyal person I've ever met, I know he has my back no matter what

Annoy: He's the most honest person I've ever met haha I do appreciate his honesty but sometimes I wish he would just sugar coat things a little bit

[amparo1981]

I love that DH is so, so easygoing. He is super-focused on his work and where he wants to get in his career, but at home if I want to do things a certain way, he only asks to get a heads-up.

The annoying part is because we're both lab rats by training, when he gets home I get a blow-by-blow account of his day, with lots of requests for feedback, what he should have done differently, what did I think of his experiment setup xy, should he have done yx, etc. Fine for 20 minutes, but noooo....

[youdontsay]

I just realized there's one MAJOR thing that annoys me about DH. He hates sweets, especially chocolate. Like, who doesn't like desserts?

I can't believe I kept him around!

[ellabee]

Adore: the fact that he knows me better than anyone else in the world - all my quirks, my moods, my OCD tendencies.

Annoy: That he can never be on time. Also that he can't seem to ever throw the pull tab on orange juice containers away (really?! Just throw it in the bin when you pull it off!!).

That's perfect, because you get more!

Well, actually, that can be a problem. MH will eat one serving of whatever dessert we buy, then it will sit there tempting me until I give in and eat it all over the next day or two.

[lgraceh]

Adore: He gets along SO WELL with my family. From day 1, everyone has loved him.

Annoy: I'm with pinkcat, he will not dry off in the shower, then stands on the mat with the shower door open and everything drips on the floor. And then onto the carpet in our bedroom!

[bighair12]

I adore how he is helpful around the house and with Ellie. We have done a great job splitting duties at home and with her.

Dislike: How I will go to the store and get groceries and he comes home and nitpicks that I got the wrong size container of spinach. Every time he finds something wrong with my excursion.

[spaceapple]

Adore: I can tell him absolutely anything. Also, he's very patient.
Annoy: Our tastebuds are on different planets. It's pretty hard to cook something that we both like.

[teraiin]

Adore: He works so hard at pretty much everything he does, from work, overtime, yard work, etc. He works hard to keep our house looking nice, is always willing to paint anything (just not at a moments notice LOL), move furniture, put stuff together that I buy, etc. There are a bunch of other things I adore, but it never ceases to amaze me how much work he does.

Annoy: He is helpless when it comes to cooking. He can make scrambled eggs and put in a frozen pizza and that's about it, yet he strongly desires home-cooked meals. If I tell him I need to work late the first thing he says is "but what am I going to have for dinner? " I don't mind cooking, but I don't like feeling bad if there is some unavoidable reason why I'm not home to cook. he doesn't make it into a big deal or anything, it just annoys me because he won't learn how to make simple things.

[titania]

Adore: He makes me laugh, he is easy-going and calm, and he is just an overall wonderful friend

Annoy: He leaves little bits of things everywhere! Clothes in the living room, wrappers next to the trashcan, receipts on the dresser... you get the picture

[tincupchalice]

I adore that he puts me and DS before his work.

I am annoyed by how fast he can destroy a perfectly clean house. 30 seconds after he walks in the door, and it looks like everything I got done that day is gone.

[penguin129]

Adore: I adore seeing him play and do things with DD. I also adore how close he is to his mom.

Annoy: He doesn't throw out chicken bones. He just puts his bowl in the sink with said chicken bones in it. The trash is now UNDER the sink. It shouldn't be that hard.

[badwolf]

I adore that DH always treats me special. He always tries to make me happy and take care of things when they're wrong and stays patient when I let my bitch flag fly on him.

It drives me insane when he takes off his shoes and socks after work and just leaves his socks wherever they drop. Why is it so hard to take them back to the laundry room?

[thelittleredm]

Adore: His desire to make sure I have everything I need.

Annoy: He always insists on having us talk through things during an argument until things are resolved. -.- I just want to be angry and left alone until I'm ready to discuss things.

Oooh, my DH does this too. I call them his "slugs". Sometimes they're even right next to the hamper. 

Also, on days when he's feeling super lazy at the end of the day he'll just strip his pants and shoes off and leave them in a clothes puddle where he took them off. Sometimes it makes me laugh because it looks like he melted on the floor, other times it makes me ragey (like when I trip over them. grr).

Yes!  I hate that!

I adore how hard my husband works for our family, not just at his job but how hard he works around the house, etc. he wants to make everything perfect for us (me)

Annoy: Hes very practical so it's hard for him to understand or be sympathetic if I'm being emotional

Omg this!!!

[vancitygirl]

I adore thAt DH can get along with everyone and is literally always smiling!

I get annoyed by how he puts dishes away especially our glassware storage dishes he just piles them up without thinking about sizes or stability...so annoying gah!

[littlelion]

Adore: Love that DH is patient and easy going. That he likes to put away groceries as if he works in produce. And that he is obsessed with pretty smells...candles, potpourri and the glade plug ins.
Annoy: He is terribly shy and wants me to do all the talking (stores, business calls, etc). Hate that he takes off & leaves his clothes strewn all over the house. And for some reason does not like to have the toilet paper hung properly in its place. I'll replace the tp and he'll take it off and place it on the floor, sink, etc. So annoying!!!

[mcktymck]

My DH is my biggest fan. He supports me in everything I do, believes in me, and is constantly making sure I know that I am wanted and loved. He is also the funniest person I know, always cracking jokes and making me smile.He's the best!

He can be a little bit lazy when it comes to certain things. He's got one "chore" he needs to do each day that takes maybe 10 minutes, and oftentimes it doesn't get done. And he complains frequently about not making enough money and how he needs a better job so that he can help out more financially and be home more, yet he isn't applying to any new jobs. Kinda need to do that if you want a new job, they don't just fall into your lap...

[mikaela20]

I adore many thigs about my husband. He is very easy going and makes me laugh constantly. We are always goofing around like some middle school kids. I love that he is my best friend.

I have a few things that annoy me but I will share one of the least disgusting ones lol. He is super forgetful. Anything I don't remind him a few times about, He forgets to do it. Appts, errands, calling his mom to confirm things, etc. anything. It goes beyond annoying sometimes and I get super pissed if it's something important like him forgetting to go to the dentist ($100 no show charge).

[sanibel21]

I adore that he is so laid back, never complains, always helpful, even when I'm asking a lot or just moody.
I get annoyed that because he's so laid back and nothing bothers him, he doesn't think to pick up or do things around the house on his own. He can be content with the messiest house which is great, because he's not coplaining to me about it, but annoying because I always have to either clean it myself or ask him to help.

[PepperPottsJ]

Adore: MY is so loving and supportive and would do absolutely anything I needed. He is always there for me.

Annoy: FFS just because your mother taught you to tap/smack people on the arm when you want there attention does NOT make it acceptable. You are over a foot taller and over 100 lbs more, its not a fucking love tap! - I know hit back ever time he does this. My future imaginary LO will not adopt this nonsense
