Relationship pet peeves
Iv been reading alot of threads about "issues" within relationships. I think if i write them down it will make me feel abit better (seeing as me and the SO are not currently talking)
what are your issues, pet peeves... my peeves with my bf; like alot of others on this board is that
1. whenever me and my SO have an argument (his fault) he always turns it around as though its my fault.. he tries soo hard to convince me & everyone else i'm to blame
2.Constantly says he's sorry whenever he hurts me but does the same thing again and again
3.Always has to get his own way with everything
4. Very quick tempered. He can be v.loving, caring, affectionate, devoting etc one second then the next if i make a mistake i.e. switch over the TV whilst football or something is on shouting and getting angry with me
5. the list could go on....
anyone else!?

Oh my. Do not get me started
1) Always wanting to watch ‘his thing on the tv. like if I turn something on I like, he keeps pretending to yawn and sore all the way through it
2) Not really listening to anything much I’ll say. Like I’ll be talking, and he’ll be going ‘yeah babe’ yeah babe ‘ and then later when I ask him about it, he doesn’t have a clue what I said.
3) We'll go the pics, and he'll ALWAYS moan about the price of a ticket (£5.25) and then the movie is always 'crap' or rubbish or 'not worth the money'
4) He doesn't want to go out (say for a meal) because it 'costs too much money' (even tho Im paying), but then he'll go and spend £500 on football stuff from e-bay. Gah Men...
5) Putting my job down. He talks about his job like it's SO important, and like he earns about £60 mill a year. and then when I say something about mine he puts it down, as if its not 'good enough' to par up with his job
There are ALOT more, but I don’t want to make him look all-bad. (he comes on here too lol)
** Notice, how I keep saying, I won't add anything and make him look bad, but since I wrote that, I've added three extra. lol.!

My biggest pet peeve that stops me from having a perfect relationship:
Preoccupation with perishable, material goods (money mainly) especially when it isn't really a problem but it is made into one...
PMS
Preoccupation with perishable, material goods (money mainly) especially when it isn't really a problem but it is made into one...
PMS
......
Picking at your food when they've said they didnt want any....
Moaning they dont get enough cuddles.........
Taking ages to buy anything,checking the price over and over again....
Asking if they have a fat ass,well yes they do but you aint gonna say they do.
The list is endless but thats women for you!.

hmm..
1) he is on the computer, i am talking to him but he isn't paying attention. when he finally realises that i am talking, i have to repeat everything again.
2) the way he cancels plans about 30 mins before we plan to meet up (he doesn't do it too often, but when he does.. blah - actually, he did a major one like this - he was meant to be coming on holiday with me (already booked) in june, but as soon as his friend asked him to sweden, he decided to ditch our holiday, and bugger off with his friend instead... *******)
3) the way he takes half an hour to respond on msn. he tends to do this a hell of a lot when i'm trying to talk about something important. then, when i call him up to continue the discussion, he gets really angry because i am being 'clingy'.. i mean, WTF?!
4) arguments are never his fault. they are always my fault and my fault alone, when most of the time it is actually him who is the problem.
5) if he finds something better to do on the computer, then by **** he sure will let me know in a hurry. as soon as he finds something better to do, he is all 'clare, will you go home now?'... around an hour after i turned up. he did this on my birthday for crying out loud.
6) talking about other girls. for gods sake, why!? he says he is only joking, but it gets really annoying when he starts complimenting my friend (she lives far far away.. i know there is nothing happening and i know he is joking.. but still), or pointing out other women's breasts or clothing (mostly on posters he does this, but occassionally to people walking around).. i have never once commented on another fella like that and i don't see why he should comment other girls..
7) his arrogance. i love him to pieces, but he sure can be bigheaded sometimes, and it is so annoying. carrying on from that, i will go on to:
8) long, boring conversations about computers. he is a geek. he doesn't look like it, but by joe, he could talk for england about 'hacking' crap which i couldn't give two hoots about, neither that i understand much..
9) saying really nasty things about what i enjoy. you know, i say i like something, or i like a band, or i like a certain website, and his usual responce will be 'oh, how childish and utterly pointless.. only losers go on/use/like stuff like that'.. i'm like STFU! i listen to your stupid slipknot music, i put up with your stupid computer habbits (MOHAA
/ hacking) and i put up with you ordering me to go home when you have something better to do. i would never do that to him, and i find it hard to say no to him because it makes me feel bad..
10) his jekil and hyde personality. this isn't often, but sometimes he can go from being the cutest person in the world, to being this monster who gets angry at anything i say.. i think to be honest i can't spend more than say, 5 hours with him without him getting bored and going 'cold' with me.. no 'i love you's'.. no hugs or kisses..
11) if i'm trying to be silly, does he like it? no.. when he is being silly, does he like it? yes. i honestly can't act stupid, and if i say something stupid or don't realise what he is on about, he gets so angry. it really annoys me that he can be as stupid or as thick as he wants, but as soon as i make a mistake, he is like 'oh grow up.'
i think my bf sucks - and i think i went a bit ott..

I get that too. not all the time mind you, only ever now and again, but still 
bloody hell is there anything good to say about him? lol
Get a new bf. I'm single and in demand :P
Calling my instrumental playing a fetish. WTF??
I really don’t have much. In fact if we both made a list, his would be much longer
Yikes some of you seem to have *alot* of problems with partners, I guess there must be something that makes up for their hassle!
The only peeve I have about my boyfriend is his smoking, but I have to get over it as it's only when he is drinking, and he does make a little effort to alleviate my cancer risk by opening doors and not smoking right next to me!

for me it was the computer...seriously, even when I was in the same room as him I had to talk to him through msn for him to just acknowledge I existed, even when I was ontop of him he still just looked round me to look at the computer...in one way I wish I'd have just cut off his internet...
*cough*... I just showed it to my girlfriend... it's ME! On behalf of all men... I apologise 
(bar pumpkins... hers a tad awful)
But to agree with MrImperfect women have their far share of flaws as well! I don't think it means too much, these are the trivialities of a relationship and as we've seen... THEY ALWAYS OCCUR. I think they mean little in the long run, it isn't even all the time and I don't think they reflect the nature of a good relationship. I say... for every thing like this there is much more time when you love each other's company and would find it much harder to be without them.
Why do you think many married couples stay together so long? They just end up rolling their eyes at having to repeat themselves, or having to convince their wife they are still good looking! It is never ending. One would hope they never ruin a relationship, but they are sometimes a pain in the ass.
Having said this... I must admit... I think men do have a few more annoying features
On behalf of most men... we love ya really

Of course we do annoying stuff too...my boyfriend hasn't complained but I can think of a few things that make me want to kick myself after I realise I've done it!
For example if something he is telling me about his past makes me feel weird, even though I've done it myself, I kinda cut him off a bit. I think that's because I don't like the thought of his health being harmed.
I probably irritate him with my incessant questions about everything, and my worries. Oh and I'll bet he doesn't like it when I point out stuff that needs doing round his house, oops!
I'm a cricket fan rather than a football fan... it does get me away form her for much longer! XD I feel sorry for any women in a relationship with a devoted cricket follower
