[quote=Anonymous]I hate when my husband leaves knives on the counter.  He hates when I haven't scrubbed the cutting board after chopping veggies for breakfast.  Most of the time we clean each other's messes.  Sometimes we snip at each other, depending on mood.

Respect has never entered the conversation. These are just annoying habits that WE ALL HAVE, and that we need to learn to live with, when we are part of a family.

There is absolutely something deeper going on here. I know you are worried about angering him (which is a concern in itself), but is it possible to have a sit-down conversation with him and try to get both of you to understand where this is coming from? Because I doubt he knows, either, quite honestly.

Also:

What work does he do around the house?  I assume he's doing his own laundry, at least, because he's the one who "messes that up." And makes the bed and washes bed linens at least half the time, because, you know, he "messes that up" too.  And takes out the trash, etc. at least half the time.  And so on.  [/quote]
