Mine is really good to me, but I have to be careful when I ask a question, she is a retired school teacher, and if I ask the wrong question, I will get a 45 mlin dissertation on the subject and all I do then is say, Yes Dear

Ok, I'll chime in!
The hubby cannot seem to replace toilet paper when he uses the last of it even though replacements are right there. He also likes to leave the house with the TV still on. The excuse was that the dogs need to be entertained, but we haven't had dogs for 2 years! Every time I ask why he does something the answer I get is " I don't make the rules, I just enforce the guidelines". Which in itself is irritating.
That being said, I wouldn't trade him for anything!
Seems like leaving the lights on is pretty common, mine does it too. She leaves wet towel on the bed or wherever she was standing at the time, can't ever remember where her phone is.
Here's a trick I heard, especially if it's a restaurant for her birthday, anniversary, etc. Instead of asking her where she wants to go, just ask her "Guess where I'm taking you tomorrow!" Whatever she says, say "good guess, that's it!" leave the area, quietly make a reservation and go there.

My wife has to have a compartment plate......nothing can touch. Her Dad is same way.
My wife falls asleep in 2-3 minutes and starts snoring in 5....I bump her as say "honey your snoring" she always says "I'm not even sleeping yet" and gets a little mad....5 minutes later she's sawing wood like a badly tuned chain saw....I go share the couch with our yellow lab.lol
My wife can't do a lot of stuff, so she issues orders for me to do it. If I do it the way I want, it's wrong. If we're working together in the yard, she's always wearing earphones and listening to an audio book. If I tell her or ask her something, it's a PITFA. Tends to make me not ask or tell, just do. No, she was not happy with the way I pruned back the Hydrangeas.
Don't bother me, I'm screwing for virginity.
I killed a 12-pack just to watch it die.

I'll play!! Where to begin...
She HAS to vacuum every day, if she's home and not travelling for work. However, she REFUSES to wind the cord back on the vacuum. She just says, "I'm leaving it there cause I'm gonna use it tomorrow anyway".
She only dusts about three times a year, and usually because she sees me doing it and then gets offended.
She will stand next to me while I'm still eating so she can have my plate as soon as the last fork full is in my mouth.
She's NO FUN to shop with because she'll follow me around and "toe-tap" while I'm looking at stuff.
She'll leave the house for hours (running errands or whatever) and leave every light AND the TV on.
All that said, I wouldn't trade her for ANYTHING!!
All three of my ex-wives had the same one, getting rid of me.
Okay, I forgot to mention that my wife doesn’t have to put up with any quirks from me as I don’t have any.( that I am aware of)

Ok I will play, been married 29 years next month. Im a Republican, she is a Democrat. I hunt, fish, shoot, play golf, my wife hates all of that. But, she is a great Mom......and she says Im deaf.......
Quirks?
My wife is near the perfect woman in a mans definition.
She however is a huge tightwad, OCD, and a soft talker.
30+ years of Aviation and turbines has left me hard of hearing. So the most repeated sentence I use is TALK LOUDER! She will talk to me while facing the sink doing dished, so all I hear is BLSHSGIIKSBNSKSNS! She tells me I have selective hearing, but my daughter backs me up telling her "No one could have heard what you said!"
Money? While I was out the country she had the welding shop in town build her cloth line posts. When I got back I was digging holes to concrete (what looked like drilling pipe) them in the ground. If the weather is good, the laundry is ALWAYS hung up. Why? Because the dryer uses to much electricity.
ALL lights will be out in the house if not needed. She puts her make up on without the light on in the bathroom. Guess I'm lucky to have a hot water heater.
If she can build it, we are not buying it. Told her that we should get new end tables for the living room. Went to the furniture store. Found what she liked. Told me it would be a cold day in hell before she paid that much. Took a pic. Now shes making them.
She sweeps, vacuums, and mops pretty much every single day.
She spring cleans just about every time she cleans. Base boards wiped. Ceiling fans dusted.
Sitting on the jon for a few seconds of peace doesn't happen. I will be picking my feet up so she can vacuum under them.
We are in January and she cut the grass today. It was 29 degrees with the windchill, but she was outside in camo coveralls cutting down the 3 pieces of grass that grew.
My nickname for her is Lil Beast. At 4'11" there isnt much she cant do.
She spoils me rotten and treats me like a king.

Sounds like most of you guys are luckier than you deserve.
My wife and I hit 60 years in a couple of months. Her greatest accomplishment is putting up with me for all of that time. Oh yeah, she is still willing to try something different. Today, she shot a real pistol for the first time. At age 79.
