Can You Put Up With Any Annoying Habits Your Partner Has If You Love Them Or Would Some Annoying Habits Get To Be Too Much?

Question

Lliam · Accepted Answer

I can put up with them to an extent. I wouldn't become partners in the first place with someone who had habits I was incapable of accepting, like chewing with their mouth open, having an annoying laugh, picking their nose, or unapologetically belching or farting loudly in public. Some things are just uncouth.

One thing I complained to my wife about was her habit of just helping herself to food off of my plate in restaurants without asking. Or saying she's not hungry, letting me order, and then assuming that she can eat part of my meal. "I wasn't that hungry. I thought I would just have a bite of yours." "NO!" I find that highly presumptuous. She finally got the message.
Another thing I find annoying is being interrupted in the middle of a sentence. She has a hard time understanding how disrespectful that is to me. But she has gotten better.
She's a work in progress. And, the thing is, I don't have ANY annoying habits.

I suppose it depends on how extreme the annoying habit was. A woman I dated a few times made infuriating noises while eating. So I wore ear plugs while we ate. She broke up with me because I couldn't hear what she was saying while she was chewing and therefore wasn't responding. She couldn't see the ear plugs because my long hair was covering my ears. I guess she couldn't tolerate my annoying habit of wearing ear plugs when I didn't want to hear something.

I can put up with them. He loud, and thinks it's funny to fart under the blankets and raise the blankets at my face. 😡
He doesn't know when to let a joke go😂
He over explains everything and depending on his mood talks to much, but i think everybody talks to much😂
Oh and the damn remote when we watch TV. 😡 he even needs to sleep with it. Even when he stays the night at my place.
Bu like bruh, this my room, my remote gimmie that. Then we wake up and he still somehow sleeping with the remote🤦🏾‍♀️.
Some of these things are adorable.

Obviously the farting isn't 😡

But he deals with my lip smacking so yeah, and my bossiness.

One habit I will not tolerate is sensory discomfort. Like I know a woman who poured cold water into her husbands shower as a joke. I would never tolerate that type of joke. Same if he does not shower when he sweats and I have to smell that but if he has other bad habits like chewing with his mouth open or honking at people during traffic jams, I can overlook that.

If I love them YES I can put up with most stuff and hopefully vice versa.

My stepfather called his form of corrective action tough love, which is often a point of contention between him and my mom, who called it something else. We both learned to expect such insensitivity from a guy who crunched chicken bones within the chicken legs and wings and pulverize them into mush the same way my monitor lizard did with animals that he managed to catch while on walks outside. Poor rabbits, squirrels, and chickens😬.
That particular tick of mine that irked his ire the most, was my chronic use of the word "um" when starting each sentence.
He cured me of that bad habit by getting in my face and yelling

as loud as he could, every time I said that word. No matter where or when, if I said "um," he

in the most antagonistic manner possible,

until I got the message.
Now I am not recommending that particular approach for a person to take with thier significant other, but since the next step up the progressive irritated response scale, probably involves the use of large caliber ordinance, I would suggest either finding a way of addressing the issue, for finding a new significant other, since failure to do the first, will result in the latter, after one of you gets out of prison.

My gosh, my wife has so many annoying habits but I absolutely accept them because I know I have ones that she hates too (wearing one sock around).

Lol sometimes marriage is less love and more of I like this person enough that I dont want to kill them, but I swear if she talks through this movie one more time...

Coulis · Answer

If you have been together long enough the way they blink will drive you insane some days.

I think as long as the ha it doesn't harm the other partner emotionally, mentally or physically a compromise should be worked out if there is still enough appreciation and attraction there.

CrazyGirl2 · Answer

Well, I guess we all do something that could be considered an annoying habit, by someone… so sure! I mean, if you truly love someone, aren’t you supposed to love them unconditionally? I figure if he loves me enough to put up with my MY idiosyncrasies… I can love him enough to put up with his. After all, isn’t that the real difference between true love, and just lust?

johnsmithjs · Answer

NOPE, if you annoy me, we are done. Life is to short to be with someone that annoys you. If you do not rinse your dishes and put them in the dishwasher right away, we are done. If you leave the milk carton with a teaspoon of milk in the fridge we are done, if you leave a empty roll of toilet paper in the bathroom, we are done.

Floppy2112 · Answer

Whatever you found quirky and cute in the beginning, becomes annoying over time. But if I love the person, I won't let that get in the way, because I presume, once we're at that point, I know the person much better and superficial behaviors will not affect my overall love for the person.

Tunasub · Answer

I think if you are in love and with that person you've probably already accepted that the habit isn't going away so you've conditions yourself to ignore it or not let it bother you as much. Love will make you turn your life upside down and have you doing things and accepting things that you normally wouldn't. Hopefully its nothing unsafe illegal or immoral..

MasseurDeMojo · Answer

If you have been with them for years, and you never complained about their bad habits; the you have received what you asked for. In other words; you learned about their bad habits before you got together long term.

If they were genuinely a problem, then you should of talked about them early on in the relationship, before it got the point that you were totally angry with them non-stop because of their bad habits. If the habits were annoying to you; then ask yourself, why did you get together with them? Why did you not run?

There are some who are so awe struck, that they overlook all of their habits, just to be with them forever!!! It does not happen all the time, but it does happen. Most will eventually leave.

Yes, of course. Everyone has quirks. It's not realistic to think you'll ever find a human who NEVER annoys you. My boyfriend is messy and forgetful, but he's also hard-working, witty, smart, protective, family-oriented, a loyal friend, and animals love him (the best judges of character!). If the worst thing I can say about him is that he's messy or forgets things sometimes, that's definitely a win.

BLMUSER · Answer

My girlfriend often times takes me for granted. When I do things for her she doesn't say "thank you" anymore. Sometimes this gets to be too much because I start to feel taken advantage of. This is where I get confused in relationships. Are we supposed to be constantly thanking each other all day long?

FlutteringFeelings · Answer

Excessive burping is my pet peeve and I don’t think I can look pass that. Finger nail picking is zero tolerance for me and the list goes on 😂😂. I’m not going to write someone off because of it but I’ll address it every time they do it.

Nikola321 · Answer

Well, if smth is TOO much, I'd tell my partner about it. If she loves me, she'd try to stop or at least do it less, right? If it's smth minor, then I'd just put up w it, no one's perfect after all :D

Anonymous · Answer

Yes, my girlfriend is kinda obsessed with social media. She always post things which doesn't annoy me, but she always asks why i never post things and why i dont post things about her. I have 0 interest to make post about anything on social media. However i can deal with it even though it can be annoying.

If I truly loved them then I would be able to put up with it  I mean sometimes I may be like CAN YOU STOP THAT? But yeah I'd try my best to put up with them

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

My girlfriend snores louder than Krakatoa erupting. And that I believe was recorded at 180 DB.  If I can put up with that, then yep, I reckon I can survive anything.

KatherineJ · Answer

Well, I know that some of the things that I do annoy him, but he puts up with me. So I put up with his quirky habits too. In a relationship you have to love the whole person, not just the things that you find endearing.
