Annoying habits?

[Blackcupcake]

DISCLAIMER! This is a questions with 3 different parts, you can choose to answer 1, 2 or all 3 parts. No pressure, the point is just to have a laugh = )

1. What are things your family, friends or significant others have as a habit, that annoys you big time, but then you just learned to deal or live with it so it doesn’t bother you anymore? and maybe you even find it endearing or funny now... haha

2. Now, this one is more brutal... haha. What are things your family, friends or significant others have as a habit, that annoys you and you absolutely HATE... haha

3. Time to twist it up here! What is that one habit YOU HAVE, that annoys other people... haha. Also, do you care to control it or tone it down, or do you just not care?

For me, an annoying habit that I find funny or endearing is when my loved ones try to bother me when I'm super focused on something for example, and I ask them to stop but they keep going and end up cracking up because I do get agitated super easily in those moments but it quickly turns into giggles when they're dying of laughter at my facial expressions of annoyance.

One habit that I HATE is when they don't listen to me, I just want to grab their head and make them look at me, focus and LISTEN TO WHAT I AM SAYING hahaha

and... my annoying habit is that I am clumsy, so I keep my loved ones on their toes haha

Well, I can answer numbers one and three.

So, one thing that I have love to hate and hate to love is his slang. So, I speak very good English but it was always taught as proper English. Sure, I have picked up plenty of words in my life that are not "proper".

When I met my husband and we started dating, I was in love with his accent. What I was not in love with were the words I could not figure out the meaning to. I will never forget the day we moved in together.

I would have to say it was in the first month of cohabitating that we were watching tv. I got up to get some water or something. Don't remember. I asked him if he wanted anything. He said "Thanks darling. I'd love a coldie." Uhhh, okay. Not wanting to look stupid and thinking I can figure this out, I tried to decipher his slang.

I thought does he wants some f*-ing ice? Coldie? Does he have a headache and need a cold pack? In the end, it means beer in koala land. I have learned many of his slang words but it used to annoy me. Just speak plain English because I have no clue what you are saying. I have learned to find it endearing now... and educational!

To answer question number three, I think the thing that annoys my other half the most is my determination to fix something that doesn't need fixed and my inability to actually do it.

I am allowed to have one tool at home which is an electric screwdriver. I can do a lot of damage with this thing. I tend to think something needs fixed even though it really probably doesn't. If I am holding that screwdriver with a puzzled look on my face, I can see him rolling his eyes at me through the back of my head.

It annoys him to no end that I will be stubborn and say "I will do it" instead of asking him for help and to teach me how to fix something...

Put your tool down and enjoy a coldie 🤣

[Blackcupcake]

hahahahaha as @emiliamazing said!!!
make a wine into coldie… just pour it in a coldie can and you’re a true koala

[PrettyPriya]

With a straw!

[Blackcupcake]

@PrettyPriya drinking with a straw is the best!

[PrettyPriya]

@blackcupcake for me it would have to be one of those silly straws with all the loops. That is my style.

[Blackcupcake]

@PrettyPriya glasses straw is even better…

One, they have a habit of taking long pauses and taking no action during something important or engaging. It's like you paused a movie, or you're playing a video game and have to press 'continue' so they would continue talking. I say 'take action!' and they're reminded of what they're doing or are Not doing, and they snap out of it.

Two, the fights they get into. You aren't involved but you suffer with them because you lived in the same house, and they can't come to a proper solution or ignore the solutions you give them. A lot of fights could have been avoided. And everytime the fight breaks out I'm not surprised and they are surprised of how things turned out after ignoring my warnings again and again.

Three, I always liked being alone and I don't like being around big groups of people. As a result if I can not go to an event with a big group of friends or family, I will probably not go. If I am for some reason there and have the chance to leave early, I will be gone. They really like to come together, and they miss me, sad that I don't attend. I feel guilty, but whenever I'm there the second I sit down I think of wanting to leave.

[Blackcupcake]

that’s completely understandable… I’m sorry about that. maybe they learn to listen better with time which helps make things easier for you and to be around them…

I moved out long ago 😂 I'm good now. So have my brothers. It's just point 3 now that annoys me a bit. A few friends or family members is okay, but eight or up and I feel uncomfortable. I thought it was just me being shy but I'm not at all scared of interacting with strangers, or crowded places in general. But the strangers are few, and the big groups are people I am not stuck with, they're just part of the background while I live the life I want to live. But I'm still a bit embarrassed by the fact I can't do it around groups of people who are closest to me.
My only solution to it is splitting up and regrouping later for a bit.

[Blackcupcake]

well as long as you’re happy… that’s all that matters = )

If I found something annoying I could never find it endearing so no answer there.
No point pulling out tons of examples so just basically anything my mother does is annoying and I hate.
Then 3rd don't have any, if I found myself to have an annoying habit I would try to stop it because why would I keep doing something that annoys myself? That's counterproductive.

My answer was probably more serious than the vibe you were asking for but this is all I can answer with.

[Blackcupcake]

I think you read the question wrong, the 3rd one was about a habit of yours that annoys others, not yourself

[Kaneki05]

I see. No has ever told me I've got one so I have no idea.

1. His (husband) constant need to be tidy. We have five people and a pet in one house, it's impossible 🤣

2. Our middle child just refuses to flush the toilet. Drives us nuts!

3. I am messy, clothes on the floor, unrinsed dishes. Might be impacting #1

[Blackcupcake]

hahaha number one and three are definitely connected... number two is just hilarious, you get a surprise every time you go to the bathroom🤣

[Emiliamazing]

That middle child, he's stubborn!

[Blackcupcake]

hahaha definitely sounds like it!
