My snoring. My tendency to fly off the handle when angry.

He's fine with how I handle money; we agree on everything there.

That I'm messy, can't cook very well, controlling, critical, and not "cool", a wet blanket, lacking in ambition, and over protective of our kids.

That I stress and worry too much about things that don’t matter, and it would be nicer if I were more chill. But he’s very good about helping me get perspective and fix the things I’m stressing about, and if I’m upset about something mundane he’ll help me fix it even if he thinks it’s dumb that I care.

There are a ton of little things that I know bother him like never turning off lights. But he’s smart enough to not complain.

Seems reasonable

😂 agreed, some days! I routinely tell the dog she’s my favorite (my kids are late teens/20s, and laugh along). They adore her as much as I do.

My DH would say I don’t let him get a word in, that I interrupt him. (He’s the only person I interrupt, mostly because it takes him forever to finish a sentence. Think Ross on Friends. 😁)

I don’t know. My husband used to complain about things I did or didn’t do all of the time. If I gained weight or didn’t cook one night or didn’t make something he liked or the house was messy or I didn’t get the kids to brush their teeth one night. It felt like it was everything all of the time.
But about three months ago, he just stopped.

I don’t know if he would still have all of those complaints about me, if he just decided those things weren’t a big deal, or if he never felt they were a big deal and just decided not to verbalize every thought that came into his head anymore.

Im a clutter mess and spend too much on clothes

He'd probably say that he has to wait for me to get out of the door frequently.

He will not say anything about money in relation to me because he knows I manage the money better than he does.

That I’m messy. And that I want to rush and be early for stuff

he'd say nothing if he knows what's good for him.

That I'm not professionally ambitious. I used to be, but once I had kids, I lost any desire to climb the corporate ladder. I do work (and enjoy what I do) and our HHI is plenty, but I know he'd rather be a "power couple."

Wondering how many would say "spouse's concept of money" - given the threads about money on this forum, as a whole.
