Spouse’s worst trait and spouse’s best trait

Anonymous
Someone told me before I got married that I should write down the thing I loved most about my spouse, and in 15 years, I should look at it. At that time I would realize that the same thing I loved most about him would be the thing that drives me the craziest. He said that for his wife it was his sense of humor. He was kind of witty and sarcastic (think Chandler from Friends). I can see how it would be fun in the beginning, but grating over time.

And it’s been true! The thing I love most about my husband and the thing that drives me are literally the same thing: DH makes everything, even mundane things, an adventure.

When we were dating and even still now, this is so much fun. Especially with the kids. At the same time, sometimes we don’t need an adventure. Sometimes it would be nice if he would just make a meal, have it take 20 minutes, and just be something to eat. He and the kids don’t need to spend 90 minutes and destroy the kitchen creating experiments to make the best pancakes or the fluffiest eggs.

Anyone else found this to be true? That the best trait and the worst trait are the same thing?
