Some people look peaceful when they sleep, my spouse looks like she needs an ambulance. Just limbs and hair everywhere, contorted positions like she fell off the roof, drool, and as much as she denies it, snoring. It’s fine I really don’t care. I just think she sleeps funny.Ā .

He's like living with a poltergeist. My cabinets are constantly left open.

My husband is fine if the house is messy and cluttered. Or if the bathroom is nasty and have never been cleaned. I've been to his parents' hoarder house so Ive seen how he grew up in..their restroom is dirtier than a gas station restroom 🤢

I overlook it because he's willing to do the cooking.
So I'll clean.

LetThemEatVeganCake:
As a child of hoarders, thank you for dealing with him. He appreciates it more than he can probably describe! I know for me, the trigger of 'this is a mess and I need to clean' happens way after it happens for normal folks.

Inability to throw out something that is empty - cereal boxes, inhalers, water bottles, toiletries, etc. Doesn't matter. My favorite is going to grab cereal from the cabinet only to find out that it is completely empty and he had put the box back despite that.

Dogzillas_Mom:
My ex would leave like one potato chip in the bag. Or one slice of bread. Or two tablespoons of milk. I think he didn’t want to be scolded for taking the last of something. I’d bring the container to him. Just finish it! I said you could have it. Leaving me one goddamn chip pisses me off way more than if you just ate the whole bag.

My wife who is stunningly beautiful and way out of my league so I keep my mouth shut as much as I cam about it, clears her throat and nose just like John Candy in planes trains and automobiles. Its the most disgusting thing ive ever heard, my mother in law and aunt and uncles in law all do it too. Its so friggin bizarre and makes me gag upon hearing it. literal skin crawling stuff.

His snoring. Dear god his snoring. I just go sleep in the guest room now when it starts.

TechnoMagi:
My fiancĆØe and I sleep in separate rooms thanks to her snoring. However even before that started we agreed to have our own separate bedrooms, so it wasn't a big deal to have to sleep separately. Having your own place just for yourself is important in a relationship, IMO.

To be married, you need to make peace with:

* hair on the sink

* Farts

* gross things in the trash can

* ā€œLook at this and tell me if you think I should see a doctor.ā€.

He used to wash his face with apple cider vinegar every night before bed. It was like sleeping next to a pickle.

In all our years together, he has never used a nailcutter. He bites off his toenails.

Mine feeds the stove every time they cook.
Stirring the food? Whoops! Scooped some on the stove!

Boiling anything? Let’s turn it up all the way and walk away!

At any given time, 1/4 of dinner seems to be fed to the stove and then left there to crust over, rot, or start on fire the next time.

They never clean the stove either!

But I’m treated like gold. And get my coffee brought to me every morning, just how I like it. My dr appts are made for me. My gardening hobbies are indulged.
Overall it’s a fair tax to the stove gods.

I’ll clean it or the dog sitter will. If we don’t it will sit dirty for over a month until the dog sitter or I crack.

And who knows… maybe the stove is hungry!!

My husband is the most neurotic clean freak so there isn't much. Seriously, I think he's farted outside of the bathroom like 3 times in the last 12 years.

However! He gets tonsil stones. The noise that comes out of that bathroom when he's gagging trying to clean them out. I just can not.

She puts honey on macaroni and cheese. And pizza. And basically any other food involving cheese. And plenty that don’t. She’s a gross little bug, but she’s *my* gross little bug, so I’m willing to let it slide.

My wife will not pick up after herself to save her life. 12 years I've tried with absolutely no luck. So because I love her and I still require my sanity, I've given up. She's my little garbage muffin and I adore her so we'll be garbage muffins together.

So many things but mostly his vile, foul farts that could suffocate a room.

Fireantstirfry:
Does he have IBS or something? I used to have absolutely appalling farts that made me miserable and embarrassed to sleep with anyone in case I let one rip while asleep. I didn't realize how abnormal it was. Turns out I have IBS. Anything sulfurous or legumes...onions, cauliflower, beans, etc. They absolutely give me the worst farts. I avoid them as much as possible. If I'm going to eat something with those ingredients, there's an enzyme you can take that I find helpful too. As well if there's no avoiding a meal heavy in that kind of stuff, I'll down a dose of Pepto about 12 hours beforehand. It doesn't stop the farts, but the Pepto absolutely kills the smell; though I don't do that very often - I understand there might be issues with long-term Pepto use.

LOL my fiancĆ© brushes his teeth bent over the sink with his mouth open and toothpaste just pouring out all over his hand, arm, and sink. It’s so bizarre like just stand up and have your mouth slightly open like a normal person.. It makes me laugh every time.

ash-leg2:
He should brush in the shower. I've done it for years to protect my chest from toothpaste - got my husband to do it too and our bathroom mirror has never been cleaner.

Own-Introduction6830:
I am this person. I close the bathroom door because I don't like to be watched while brushing my teeth. I just need to get all the areas, thoroughly, and keeping my mouth open helps. Plus, the build-up of foamy toothpaste makes me gag, specifically, in the morning.

When my husband uses our bidet, he finishes by shooting some water into his b******e and then squirts it back out. Even with the fan on, I can hear it from the next room. It’s so disgusting.

Why she slurps her toothbrush after brushing is something I cannot understand.

taactfulcaactus:
I used to rinse my mouth by using my toothbrush like a spoon to slurp water from the faucet when I was a kid. Totally forgot about that.
