Ladies, do you have a partner who likes to leave things lying around? Well, I do.
EVERYDAY.
Sometimes it’s a cup, at times it’s a plate and other times it’s a wet towel. Yesterday it was a banana skin.
Me: WHO LEFT THE BANANA SKIN ON THE TABLE?
He: Me…
Me: WHY DID YOU LEAVE IT ON THIS TABLE?
He: Because I’m waiting for a lizard to come.
Me: WHAT???
Me: WHY?
He: So that the lizard can trip over the banana skin.
ARRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH *PULLS HAIR*
My guess is alot of men are like that - LAZY. Maybe alot of them are spoilt by their moms. So, u know not to spoil your kid.
On the bright side, your man humor u (or rather us when u share it with us) ;D

Girlfriend, I can identify with this. MM does this too though he doesn’t reason with me the same way your hubby did with the banana skin. Sometimes, I find myself on all fours sourcing for that missing sock, that missing belt, the missing specs, the missing everything! I’m like his lost-and-found counter gal.

Think after being married and living together for quite a while, your partner will tend to make jokes out of it when you are angry. I’m in the same boat. They thought it will make us less work-up, though the trick has never worked.

He is funny, but he probably drives you nuts! My husband has a sense of humor like that and sometimes its funny, sometimes not so much.

Hahaha… I think my partner has the same characteristic as yours, both lazy & “humour”. I used to find those “nonsense” from him humourous but now my accumulated anger has outgrown his humour and he never realise no matter how good a joke is, repeating it make it funny no more!

wow.. kudos to your patience.. if my hubby does that, I’ll probably bring out my samurai sword.

I can relate. I like his sense of humour, though. I also know how it can get old and can get annoying when done repeatedly. More patience, my dear.

Aaaargh! Both of you are so farnee and witty!!! Good, keep it up, it’s lines like these that make your marriage very memorable!
Oops, did I trip on a banana skin by saying that?

Ya la, he knows how to get away with it by being funny. I’ll usually laugh but not when I’m angry though…And it does get on my nerve when I’m stressed and still see these things everyday. *BREATHE, BREATHE, BREATHE*

Danny leaves things around too, but in response to my nagging, he always says he’ll throw it or move it later. “Later” never comes though.
