I am an orderly person. My husband is not so. I et irritated when he hangs his used pants over my used pants on the rack, when there are other hooks where he can place it. He would sometimes just put a wrapper on the place where he ate the content, when there's the trash bin nearby. He would just leave the bed without making the creases straightened. ( i leave earlier for work and when i arrive home it would be like that). He would eat junk foods on his part of the bed and would not try to sweep the floor for the crumbs. He would just wink at me when i tell him about it though. He's my husband after all. . . i just have to live with his ways.

O.M.G L.O.L. I thought my husband was the only one that does that! Now I know I am not alone!! He eats chocolate in the bed all the time and when I wake up there is pieces of chocolate and wrappers all i the bed and that really irritates me!!! And coffee cups everywhere and right after I clean he thinks the sink is an ashtray!! I know how you feel!!

I am a husband, and I like my house neat and clean. As much as possible I made a tidy house, I also always tell my wife, to always make the house was always neat. Although sometimes I do not orderly.

Most of us wives wants our houses clean and orderly. Husbands do like it that way too. They just couldn't help themselves from getting disorderly though , sometimes. So, us wives could only bear with them, because when we married them, we also married those annoying traits.

You have the same feelings with my mother, she got very irritated every time my father arrives home and just hang his pants and long sleeves improperly. And also my father don't know how to flush the toilet bowl after using. Sometimes my father don't want to take a bath everyday. To all of these, my mother got no choice but to live with my father's ways.

I guess, we wives just have to bear with our husbands though. They after all , make it up with us in their own way.

Ha ha ha you remind me of my wife. She too keeps getting cross with me when I mess things up. Been married for 30 years now so she is quite used to me. I however do make it up and help her out in many ways. On holidays I do a lot of cleaning up in the garden and in the house. sometimes she pampers me too by saying "let it be I will tidy it up."

Much as he always irritates me by his ways, i would always end up tidying up what he has messed. I guess, most wives would agree that it's our role in marriage.

Some men can be this way indeed as I know quite a few of them. I am blessed to be with someone who does his own laundry, cooks and washes dishes. I suppose because he has lived alone for a long time that he is so self sufficient and I so appreciative to be with him as my ex-husband mistook me for his maid.

so with my husband, he shares in those chores at home. Although, he has those manners that irritates me though. But i can live with them anyway. That's how i love him.

Our guys always have some annoying habits but I think we do too, I'm even less organized then him so that's how I try to overcome my anger sometimes, I do so he can have annoying habits :)

Men can really be messy sometimes and I hate that too! Especially when my husband fails to put back the toilet seat, OMG! As in I want to scream at him and all. But sometimes their ways are just so hard to change, maybe they grew up doing this and that. But I always tell my husband that things are different now. And that he should be more orderly and should be a role model to our kids.

So what does he say about what you said? My husband would tell me, here comes the police. I would just laugh anyway.

To look at a different view, there are men who are more organized than women. They are the type who gets in touch with their feminine side (don't mean g@y though). Perhaps, culture and society made them that way. It's the idea that men are to be served by their wives. That means cleaning up their mess. And perhaps the upbringing of their parents too.

Well, maybe that's why it seems that my husband would think that way too. When you try to call his attention to it, he would just kid me and say i like it that way.
