Leaving the bathroom door open. With #1 I don't care, as far as #2 goes, that's sacred. Like he's allowed to walk in , but not for long lol.


Reading all the time- I'm constantly reading in random places and I've always got one of my cats with me and he hates that.


Drinking beverages out of the container (i.e. milk, juice) and not using a glass. I do use glasses but not if I just want one sip :D



Leaving dishes in/by the sink. We never had a dishwasher growing up, so that's what we did.


Breathing, apparently.


Probably cleaning and leaving dishes in the sink wasn't a big deal growing up but now I know if I leave a mess I should clean it up before we go to bed


I'm sure that early in our marriage there were many things that my wife couldn't stand. I know my inability to wipe the shower down after using it or waiting to be told how to help around the house were among several things. I hope that I have worked on correcting those behaviors and that there aren't too many hold-overs from my old self. Interesting question, I'll have to ask her if there is still anything...what do you think hun?


Yelling across the house... lol..


Having someone to help with cleaning around the house, going to church on a regular basis, being very black or white When it comes to BS on situations or people.


Not sure but I'd like to know!!


Not talking enough


Open Christmas presents on Christmas Eve... We now do the opening on Christmas morning... Got to learn to give...


not thinking before I speak and not showering everyday lol also not being organized and also being defensive


I think in some aspects my upbringing was VERY conservative and proper. So the idea that sex could be casual or open conversation amongst family is quite alien to me. I believe you respect my childhood conditioning but at the same time you are respectful in helping me loosen up a bit! I think the second greatest obstacle is probably the fact that my dad was a doctor… so discussions related to inoculations, circumcision, home births, etc… we both are sensitive to as to not offend each other.


being passive aggressive. it was pervasive in my house growing up and it became part of me. every day i work to make it a little less a part of my personality.
