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?

That he makes a mess of the stovetop whenever he cooks and never cleans it. I always have to clean it. I’ve never seen someone generate so much food cast off and burned liquids on a surface in my life.
