QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

This is an easy one for me. He is talented in so many ways but he is the worst procrastinator in the world. The worst part is, he is one of those people who does really well with last minute things so he will write something that he has to speak about and still shine. BUT, the fact that he holds everything to the last minute makes me nuts -- I am (shock) a major planner and a listmaker.

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

He never puts stuff away or cleans up after himself.

Like he is the kind of person that will leave an empty bag from Duane Reed on the coffee table, in the middle of our apt for HOURS..

Throw it out!!! I hate clutter and it's so hard not to have it when you live in a Manhattan apt.

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

He has no 'indoor voice'

Even when he thinks he is whispering - he is actually, by most standards, still shouting.

But I still think its cute

I don't live in Manhattan, but I hear ya on this one. He cuts the tags off of new clothes and leaves them right on counter when the garbage can is directly below him..... oh well I still love him, but it drives me batty.

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

if the phone rings and he's in the middle of playing his computer game, he doesn't want to talk to the person on the phone. he says he can't pause the game.

guess boys will be boys.lol

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

Ok, I have few( ok..a lot more then a few!) ...minor though( thank goodness)
He wont turn the AC on in the car...its like hes phobic about it wasting gass ( even in 100 degree weather) and I'm thinking..WHY get a CAR with AC then?

He listens to the TV soooooo loud...surround sound is my enemy! ( I'm trying to break it without it being obvious!)

He makes these weird noises when he's excited..usually during sport's games on TV...kinda like a mix between a chirp, a growl and a horray...very weird....and PIERCING to the ear if unexpected!

He doesnt do things like make calls..I always have to order the pizza, call the phone company, the car insurance company etc...and its even worse when we are in a store, he wont ask for things or if we are walking into someones house, I always have to go first. Last week at Pre-cana I stood at the steps for like 5 minutes till he went in first, he would NOT go first...and was getting mad at ME...I was just trying to 'push' him to open up a little!

HE has to remind me a million times if he asks me to do something ( which I do not need reminding, I 'm NOT forgetful)...
-example 'Did you mail the check?' ...he will ask me at least 10 times in one day the same thing over and over!!

AND FINALLY( long I know, but I feel better getting it out..thanks guys!)
HE is HORRIBLE at making decisions..it's ALWAYS 'Whatever'....or ' I Don't care'...It drives me MAD!

Me too!!! Drives me crazy!!!

Also - the fact that he doesn't care if I have a surprise for him. I mean he cares, but he doesn't have to know what it is, I always want to know!!!

ETA: He doesn't answer the phone, either I get it or the machine picks up, but he is getting better at that.

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

My FI is the anti-planner. He is constantly saying things like, 'I don't know, I guess we'll just play it by ear.' It drives me nuts because I really like to have a plan! I know sometimes its fun to fly by the seat of your pants but there are times when you really need to make a plan for goodness sakes!!! And then he makes fun of me and says that I am anal. Well, maybe I am a liitle, but some one needs to be...

One other thing : HE WRITES IN CAPS ALL THE TIME. I don't think he knows what lowercase letters are.

Thats funny! My FH when he writes e-mails still writes like he was in his teens or early years like

I will C U later 4 dinner....what the hell is that?????

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

When he cleans the apartment he says he did it for me. Hello, don't we BOTH live there?

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

Mine is a big time procrastinator too.

And it drives me nuts when he picks at his fingers. It is so annoying. His fingers are so raw.

Oh, one more - he hates to blow his nose, so he just sniffles. I can't stand that sound!

I wonder if that is why he does it -- same kind of thing; like it forces me to do all the grown up decision making....from what movie to see to when to buy a new sofa. Things would never get done if it were up to him and then he wonders why I stress about it. But he rubs my feet so it is kind of OK :)

Yr work IS LIW..... remember ??

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

Yes, but I gotta get PAID!

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

The fact that he still hasn't asked his BM to be his BM - even though he decided who it was 2 months ago... He has 1000 excuses 'oh, i don't want to do it over the phone.' or 'oh, there were too many people there.'

We're getting married in 10 months hon, you need to ask him sometime!

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

Ooooh, unless I could get Ron to start paying me per post....I'll make MEEEELLIONS!!!! (Crazed expression covers face)

Re: QOTD: What is your pet peeve about FI?

Oh where to begin:

The biggest one is the snoring. Oh my god it's like nails on a chalkboard.

He is the biggest procrastinator in the world. I have to remind him a million times to do something. Hence, the reason we don't have video yet.

Also he refuses to put anything in the sink and prefers to put the dish on the counter beside the sink. I don't get the logic in that.
