If you could change one thing about your partner?

[HD Adam]

I wouldn't change anything. I love her just the way she is.

No, she is not reading this over my shoulder

Her untidyness drives me to distraction take today for example she had a day off went shopping bought??? Much too much got our boy from school, got him changed for evening dance classes (he's a street/break dancer) anyway I come home to dumped clothes coats school bags various shoe boxes clothes labels?????? Why?!?!?! I have been going nuts about this for 11 years now I should add I'm sort of ocd and very tidy... Opposites attract apparently

Me neither, apparently he was hiding somewhere - flucking Sky fairy.

I always say that Mrs E24man is perfect except for her piss poor taste in men, but if I were to change that then.......

Negativity

It's unforunalty a family trate.

I prefer to look at the upside, give the benefit of the doubt etc. she does not.

After yesterday's plane crash I know have an issue with getting her on a plane in two months in case it crashes. The odds are massively in my favour, but logic plays no sense.

The ability to moderate her body temperature better. Twenty one degrees Celsius indoors is not 'freezing cold'.

This - 100 times! It's irritating as the house is always far too warm.

Can always rule out the tasting menus which I'd love to try as there is always at least a fish component and something else she won't like / try.

You can try asking them to substitute something on the tasting menu if it's just one or two things she wouldn't eat, I've always found them (Michelin places) to be accommodating in this regard. I guess they are used to people with 'allergies' asking for changes.

Alternatively, I've also found that trying something I didn't like the sound of on a tasting menu is usually quite a pleasant surprise, and if not, well, it's only a tiny little plate of food and the next one is coming along right behind it!

I just wish she wasn't made of silicone.

She would never have got into the habit of saying "your comment is invalid" when she doesn't quite understand and/or agree with something I've said.

That would be amusing if I had not already pointed out that "she" was 25 years younger.
Selective quoting eh.

iambeowulf said:

Well if I am honest not a lot, however, she insists on attaching hair extensions whenever we go out. It's not like they are that long to make a difference and when I ask her why she wears it she says "So I can tie my hair up"

Still. It's a very small thing and I guess I should expect it when there is a 25 year age gap between us. LOL!

Unselective quote for posteriority.

No indication of your balding granny bride being younger, you numpty.

I'm hardly going to brag about a Rooneyesque oh am I.

Besides. Your mum...

This thread evidently has mileage

Could deal with any of these apart from the god bothering.

[Don1]

Nothing.

[Defcon5]

Her level of mechanical sympathy

Coupe of things:

1. She will have a moan at me about something that she doesn't like me doing; I will retaliate with a moan about her doing something that I don't like, she will then come back with "oh stop moaning, you sound like a moany old man, you are getting really miserable and moany" or something like that. In esscence she is allowed to have a dig but I am not and I find it kind of ironic that she will have a moan at me but then will have a moan back about my moaning and tell me to stop moaning all the while whilst she is.......err moaning.
2. Going out; when we get ready to go out at a set time I want to go out, I don't want both of us to get ready and then all of a sudden to be left standing around for 20 minutes as the bloody washing has finished so she then decides to emty it and hang stuff up and then spot that the hall floor is a bit mucky so then will whip the hoover out and start hoovering, all whilst I'm standing around and then when I say something "oh stop moaning"

I thought this sort of stuff was normal I ignore it for the most part. That said as we've got two kids (2 & 4) it takes forever to get out of the house and if we have to be at something for a specific time we're nearly always late but somehow it's always my fault
