when he comes home from somewhere he hangs his coat on the chair. And I will hang it in the closet. Then when he gets ready to go somewhere he goes to the chair and his coat is not there. That drives him crazy. On the bright side the weather should be warm enough that he wont need his coat. And I try to leave his coat on the chair as long as I can stand it.

My husband hates when things are not put back in their proper place. It never fails, when he needs something it is never where it is suppose to be. Drives him crazy.

I take my socks off and leave them on the floor or I take my shoes off and leave them as a trip hazard. It drives my husband nuts and is one of the things I need to work on.

My bride hates it when I leave cupboards and drawers open. I don't realize I even do it but I'm trying to get better.

The thing that I do that drives my husband crazy is I worry about things to much. One example would be I alway worry about my husband and kids making it to and from their destinations safely. He comforts me by calling, but I know this drives him crazy. I need to do what he keeps telling me and just trust him and I am trying to work on that for this years goal.

This has gotten sooo much better, but I use to bring up everything from the past that he done wrong when we had a argument, but now that we have " learned how to fight" through Marriage workshops I feel he has heard me, and I do not repeat it. I feel I'm the better driver, but thats not true, because he is the safe driver, and I'm the fast one . I LOVE seeing how other couples struggle with the same things we do! Thank you!

Forget to turn in receipts from expenditures so she can take then out of the check book.

I know it drives my husband nuts when I don't give him credit for the things he does around the house or with the family and respond in an argument that I DO IT ALL! I really need to work on this, as I know he does contribute, it's just hard to realize it myself and show it to him sometimes!

I know I drive my husband nuts when I get super stressed by all that's on my plate but don't let him in to get me through it. I struggle a lot with asking for help....

My wife hates a mess....and I'm a mess waiting to happen. Just the small act of haning my clotes up when I change after work instead of leaving them on the bed for later goes a long way....especially if she's had a long day, too.

I know it drives my husband crazy (in fact I did it today) when I "help" him drive when we go places. I really need to just shut my mouth and trust him, I mean he has kept me safe all the 13 years we have been married.

I know it drives him nuts when I keep telling him that whenever he gets/has any extra money, we need to consider that extra income and need to pay and additional payment towards our outstanding debt. It drives him nuts that I won't go along with HIS idea of going out to eat or going to a movie or something fun...

I'm sure that I could try to work on my side seat brakes. When I figured out pushing the floor board did not work, I would end up holding up my hand like a crossing guard, hoping my dear husband would start to brake. I know that I have issues with this and I try to distract myself. I will try harder.

I have a tendancy to make "piles"

"The thing" implies that there is only one thing I do that annoys my wife... I wish! Falling asleep on the couch every night to Sports Center, leaving dishes in 'the holding tank' (sink) rather than putting them in the dishwasher, or snoring like a triple diesel chainsaw (I don't think there is such a thing, but you can imagine it would be LOUD!) when my allergies are acting up. Because I'm a man, I won't give up #1 just yet. Because I'm asleep #3 is out. I guess I could start being more cognicent of the placement of my dirty dishes and she'd appreciate it... 'a clean kitchen is a happy kitchen.' God Bless!! ~Tyler

I talk with candy/gum at the front on my mouth. I can't believe how it makes her crazy, but it does.
