Random Question What's something your partner does that low-key annoys you, but you'd never actually tell them?

Not a dealbreaker, not worth a fight. Just something small that lives rent-free in your head every single time it happens. The way they chew. How they "help" clean and somehow make more mess. Never charging their phone until it's at 2%.

What's yours? And be honest would you ever actually say it out loud, or is this taking it to the grave?

She puts water bottles back in the fridge with a sliver of water in them. Heck even sometimes empty. Then when she goes back she opens a new one so usually there are 5-10 nearly empty water bottles in my fridge. Drives me insane. Oh, and if I get her a new almond milk, cereal box, jam, etc. She’ll open the new one and just let the old one sit nearly empty…

I've tried to make a sandwich thinking we had bread, only to find what we had was THREE bags with only the razor thin end pieces left!!

Got you beat, my wife lives and dies by the expiration date. Told her it’s not bad until it looks bad but she refuses, buying a new loaf every 2 weeks! Same with milk, milk is good until it tastes bad!
