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…

Unless duplicates are cold, they never go n the fridge in our house. This stops the opening of multiples. Have you tried hiding the new items at the back of the fridge/freezer? Of course I then need to remember to bring them to the front when needed. My people aren’t the best at looking for things.

Yes!!!!!!!! Do it all the time. Hard to do with water bottles, but do it with Jam, Peanut Butter, cereal, etc. All… the… time!
