Okay ladies be honest. When your husband or boyfriend has been around you for days does he get on your last nerve? When my husband is home for a couple of days yes he can really agraviate me.LOL Especially if he has nothing he is working on. If he is busy with something its okay. So does this sort of thing happen with you guys?

As you probably already know, my husband gets on my nerves, just by pulling up in the driveway. lol But seriously, he gets on my nerves even worse, when he's just hanging around, and not doing anything. Which, to be perfectly honest, if he's here, he's usually doing nothing. lol Anyway, he finally got a job, si I'm looking forward to taking a vacation day on Monday, even more than usual, just because he'll be at work. lol At least, I hope he'll be at work. I love being at home by myself.

We are together 24/7, and it has been this way for 20 years now..We have been together 24 years and 4 of it I was working..we are used to being together and do everything together...I am sure there are times that he wants to twist my face off.....LOL....just kidding...tonight we went grocery shopping and he kept walking away. I was getting mad. I didn't feel good and I just wanted to get in and get out. But everytime I turned around he was gone...I hate looking for someone in the store...but I do the same thing..so we are even...LOL...so the answer to the question is YES...

If you think it is bad now, wait until he retires!
I have spoken with so many women who dearly love their husbands, but once they retire - well, they are just about driven up the wall! They suddenly have a constant shadow.
When we sold our sugar cane farm and retired, I had the same problem. He is not domesticated in the slightest, and couldn't even make himself a cup of tea. "Why can't you use the same cleaner for every job?" "Why... why... why...?" The questions weren't in order to learn HOW to do things: he still is not the slightest bit domesticated.
Believe me, retirement can have its problems. He is at home 24/7. Mind you, when he isn't here I miss him. I'd rather have him here under my feet than not have him here.

My husband is retired so he is home most of the time. Right now, he is watching AMC, and we did go out this am, but sometimes he does get on my nerves, when I am writing on myLot and he asks me a question and my thoughts go out the window. I not only have to concentrate on writing quality, but that d'm keyboard has a mind of its own and wants me to hit the wrong keys. And I have to start over again. He has a lot of stock, but when we go grocery shopping, "this is too expensive, do you need this?" and yet he plays the lottery. Does that make any sense?

Well it doesn't happen to much for me because he usually works during the days and has the weekends off. I enjoy our time together on the weekends and make the most of it i.e. he babysits and I'm off to do my thing LOL

Yep I can relate to this, when my partner is at home for more than about 3 days he drives me insaine! I dont know why he does whether he gets bored when he is at home all the time and just talks to me alot more or whether because he is at home I dont get alot done as he wants me to do other things, but yes he does annoy me! I am often glad when he goes back to work! Oh what fun and joy I have just remembered my partner has all of next week off work wont that be fun!

Sometimes he does. It seems he finds so much stuff to spend money on. I never have enough to buy all the stuff he thinks he needs.

My husband usually shows up after he leaves work early, on MY day off. He tries to make me feel guilty for laying around the house and tells me that I should have been cleaning! Yea, like I want to clean when that is what I do all week!

lol yes always. When he stays home a couple of days he drives me nuts. Please go do something or sometimes I have to leave just to get away from him.

It not like this for me you know my friend, I am very much kind of scare of feeling lonely all the time and as we two are only here, i do not like to be alone, I like him to be in somewhere in the house doing anything whatever it is, but he is at home is better for me, i feel so sad whenever i get alone i dont know why, i always want people around me.....

Hi TerryZ! That question put a smile on my face because just last night he got into my nerves...I don't know maybe because my hormones are getting out of control. (LOL) My husband is home most of the time because he works at home. He is a free lance design consultant but he is busy almost all the time but whenever he sees me he always show me something, ask for something and he usually does that when I am busy on something..but mind you when I just sit with him, watching him work, he will usually tells me, "Sweetie, I'm busy". It seems to me he always wanted my undivided attention when I am busy. Talk about men! LOL

It is frustrating! My ex was always like that, lol and because I'm a loner, he's now my EX, haha. It's nice to know someone cares about you and can't live without you but after years of someone acting like a tail it makes you feel suffocated and if he can't understand that, tough.

Oh yea. If my boyfriend's not doing anything and he's home, he'll just walk around naked trying to poke me. I know it sounds funny but it's really annoying when I'm trying to do stuff. He's like a little kid.
