Little Things Your Significant Other Does that Annoy You
I am a nit, as are many of you. Anybody in a long-term relationship is familiar with the things your partner does that really aren't a big deal, but annoy the crap out of you. They're not enough to overwhelm all the positives about this person, however. In fact, they may only bother you because you're a nit. Something my wife does:
When I'm in a room with a television that's turned on (which is always) and she walks in, she invariably says "What are you watching?" without so much as looking at the TV for more than a second. Extra annoying points when it's A) a commercial B) totally obvious what it is I'm watching C) something bizarre is on the screen and she says "What are you watching?" in a tone of voice that implies I'm masturbating to Julia Childs. Usually, I'm not even watching the damn thing, it's just on, or whatever's on is what's on after whatever I was watching. But she could never possibly figure it out for herself, because she doesn't even make a half-hearted attempt to even look at the TV before asking me. Arrrrrgh. OK, that felt good. Vent, comment, sympathize.

If I walk into a room and someone's watching tv, I will first look to see if I recognize the show, if it is a commercial I don't see the problem with asking the person what's on (unless, you're on the other end of the room hunched behind a laptop playing poker or something). My girlfriend returns like 65% of the things she buys. She sees something she likes, buys it in a snap (in the case of clothing, she does try it on first) then she goes home thinks about it some more and decides if she really wants it or not. It doesn't annoy me per sey, I just think its strange.

She doesn't exist. That can be kind of annoying.
