Infuriating Things Your Partner Does


Recommended Posts

Every day I get examples of shite I'd love to post on this thread and I forget what it was by the time I open the laptop.

We were out today however and upon asking me what exit to take on the upcoming roundabout she had a fit when I said "yer going left" and proceeded to ask questions like "Straight ahead? what one?". It was a simple 4 point roundabout, left, straight ahead, right or fuckin' U turn.

f**k me.

I've had that with an ex.

She's goes to a work's night out, I go to pick her up and out waddle 2 of her work pals who get in the car.

Her - "Can you drop off Morag and Mag'ret?"

Me going a few miles from the city centre to #G12 - "Where do they stay?"

Her - "Mags stays in Ballieston and Morag in East Kilbride".

 

I was a white ball of rage for the whole journey.

Id have been 'aye no worries if they both give me a tenner for fuel.'

Don't forget wear & tear on the suspension.

Mention that and you might not even have to take any of them at all. Result.

Chooses the worst times to organise seeing family/friends and logistical plans.

It's 8am and I've had a string of texts planning stuff for the next month. It's either at this time, after 10pm, when I'm in bed or when I'm extremely hungover.

Similarly, it used to roast my parsnips when I'd just be drifting off to sleep and I'd hear, "oh, remember to do <incredibly important thing that I knew nothing about> tomorrow. If you don't, the house will explode and we'll all die. Night-night".

Cue a sleepless night spent worrying that I'd forget to do <x>.

"Can you make me a bit of toast?"

So I made some toast. Put the plate down next to her - all the while she is looking at her phone. 15 minutes later she puts the phone down and bites into the toast. Apparently the toaster is broken because the toast is cold.

Mine has developed a debilitating fear of arranging any plans as they will inevitably interfere with the weans lunch / nap, which are always kinda 1130am and 1pm .

This means that Nothing gets done ever.

Any plan I suggest is wrong cos the wean has to eat/rest.

Anniversary tomorrow. We were in the town on Sunday and she wanted to go to the bookshop which I didn't think anything of. After my usual hang about outside for a couple of minutes then realising she was still in there, I guessed she was buying something. She's stood looking at greetings cards for an anniversary card. Maybe it's just me but it's mental to buy a card for me which will just sit on the side for a few days before getting binned, so I told her this. You'd have thought I had just told her our marriage has been a lie. Her response was that she will be getting me one, I can do what I want. 

In case anyone is wondering it's been 31 years!

Are you sending one to yourself to make her jealous then ?

My mother gave my father the same Christmas card for years. He never noticed...

We got a wee takeaway of finger buffet like stuff. Also got sauce to dip it in.

While I am dishing out a few things I say "Go and divy that up" and pointed at the sauce. "I am not good at that".

What pouring a fucking sauce in to two bowls?

Mine can't talk about going anywhere for a day out or just even a walk without talking about getting a coffee and a "nice slice of cake". It's not so much going to a cafe it's the predictability of her mentioning it every time. If I mention it she calls me a tight old b*****d like her dad.

Quietly impressed with the trolling of Busta's other half. Absolutely seethe inducing without crossing the line into the genuine terrifying pyschosis of that Colombian lassie

That's exactly how I feel

I get this as well. We got a KFC the other night and while I was upstairs doing my business and getting changed, she left it untouched because "you're better at dividing it". It's not rocket science.

Better that than getting in, me going for a lavatorial expedition and her opening up all the containers from the Chinese “to save me time”, serving herself and then leaving them open so that by the time I have dropped the kids off at the pool, my egg foo yung has gone cold.

Order less egg, more fibre and there won't be enough time for it to get cold.
