Good question, not sure.
I think my different personality traits can really get on his nerves sometimes. He pays attention to detail, is melancholy, usually really laid back, and does everything very efficiently, also a little bit of a neat freak. Where I am opposite, I tend to use selective heart and I don't pay attention to details, I am sanguine, I tend to be kind of hyper, and I don't always use the best method for everything. But I'm working on forming better habits So I can be a more well rounded person :)
And he helps me do that! As far as he goes, sometimes he ignores me when I really just want his undivided attention. He doesn't mean too, I think every guy does that actually. Lol. By sometimes I want him to turn off the technology. Because without meaning to, that can say to me... "I'm boring you" or "what you have to say isn't interesting enough" or "what I have to do is more important than the time we've allotted to be together" some times it can say all three. I know I need to listen more to the little details and everything e says to me, and he needs to let me know I had his undivided attention when we are hanging out or face timing, he may be hearing me.. But he is not letting me know he is hearing me. No problem tho, this is a usual compliant from couples! Lol

What drives my partner crazy about me is my complaining. What drives me crazy about him is his procrastination and spelling/grammar.
Lol, hey tiger, do you think they mean in a hot grrr kinda way or an annoying way? If its the latter - nothing. If its the former - EVERYTHING! 💜
Hehe lets say it's the hot grr kinda way.💜

Fart, juicy and loudly, all the time...
It maybe cuz i am getting older but I take too long to tell a story
Pick
when he doesn't call or text for a long time... it makes me think he's not thinking about me
I know it drives him crazy when I'm indecisive and won't give a specific answer or date or time when he's asking for one. He hates that I'm so busy and always going a million directions at once. Oh and when I pick off my nail polish in his car 😊 hahah. I hate when he pressures me to hurry up and finish what I'm doing so that he and I can hang out. I value our time together more when I've finished everything I need to do first!!
i leave a trail of clothes, shoes, everything all over the house. putting things away seems to be a skill that eludes me, but i'm working on it. she leaves the lights on everywhere she goes, like a trail of breadcrumbs that let you know where she's been in the house. :)
mhmmm... rotomartillo!!!! ;) , jojojo besitos en el cuello, "amore", "cariño", vestirse igual, lo macho repentino, que le diga lo mucho que la admiro y adoro.
de regreso... verla por las mañanas cambiarse, que me deje firlmarla y tomarle fotos, que me haga el amour, sus palabras de aliento y apoyo... que me deja ser! :)

I ask for yes/no answers to yes/no questions. Apparently, this is unfair and infuriating.
Jealousy and insecurity
When I ignore cultural expectations and do what I want to do.
When she ignores me and pretends she answered me or that she did not hear me.

Probably when I complain or nit pick at everything he does! I'm pretty sure it drives him crazy, because he's wondering: how can I ever get anything right! She's always on my ass!! hahaha... One thing he does that drives me crazy is when he asks me a question and I give him an answer...then he asks: are you sure? I give him the answer, then he asks: but what about this or that? Hello!! I gave you the answer already!! :)
