What annoys you about your boyfriend?

Other than the things I've heard some people mention like cheating, bad sex (or the lack of it), working too much, or being away for too long (traveling or long distance), what is it about your boyfriend that drives you insane?... but you still love him.

Is it his chronic bad breath? Does he claw you in bed with his sharp toenails? Does he eat all your food and not buy groceries? Does he nag you about every little thing you do? Does he criticize you for your recent weight gain? Is his body not as in shape as when you first met? Does he chase your friends away? Do you have opposing views on a lot of issues?

This is your chance to vent about your man. But, you still love him for all his short comings. Isn't that what love is all about?

Hey enolcyc, because Bill and I love each other, we vent to each other about each other, rather than to others. We found it works better.

That he is imaginary.

Venting to each other (like meninlove) isn't always possible without being a bit hurtful. Hurtful things once said, can have a life of its own. However, venting to a public forum doesn't feel that right to me.

RunintheCity saidThat he is imaginary.

Damn It! I didn't get here quick enough, that was going to be my answer, haha.

But yes, that he's imaginary.

RunintheCity saidThat he is imaginary.

Haha no shit mines too

I love him to death but sometimes I feel like he's just too soft and too clingy. As awful as it sounds, sometimes I'd like for him to be more of a "man". But then I remember that the things about him that annoy me are also part of the reason I love him so much. And no one has ever been as supportive or protective over me as he has been. As weird as it sounds, lately when I look at him I realized that i love him more. I didn't think I could and sometimes its a bit disturbing.

He no longer is my boyfriend - that's what shits me! Well that's my fault really for dumping him, but he insisted on constantly being overseas.....

He's taking too long to find me! I know that the world is a big place so I'll cut him some slack. And at least I'll know ahead of time to love him even though he'll obviously lack a sense of urgency but,

I do wish he'd get here...

He isnt consistent with his workout routines. He will be good for a few months and then nothing for a period of time.

His blackberry for work sometimes it's abit to much

It annoys me that he's invisible. It makes it really, really hard to have sex with him.

RunintheCity saidThat he is imaginary.

Damn it RunintheCity.....that's my boyfriend. I knew he was cheating on me.

i think I used to do all thoose things first listed.
There are times when I'm very busy and it's the same time he needs attention. After 8 years I just give him as much as I can. He does the same for me
I love him.

Lol, where do I start??? But I love him to death, so I deal.. lol.

That he's a devoted catholic, that he has trouble showing his emotion and that our relationship is on a timer nearing it's end. However that last one isn't his fault.

he gets soooo pissy over little things like if I forget to turn a light off or leave the shower door open after showering, oh and he never takes out the garbage and makes me pump the gas!

but I still lovie my hunny, im sure I annoy the crap outta him too hehe, I know this bothers him so I do it all the time...when we are in the car at a stop light I will throw myself on him and be like "hunnnnny love you!!" he hates it cause the people next to us might be watching

I lived in manhattan beach.. its was the same thing... esp since my ex grew up there. it was especially hard for him. I hated it... I made sure people knew I was gay...
as for getting your pda in boys town. I found that trying to do that in boys town seemed contrived. If anything, at first glance, it makes a person come off as insecure about his relationship to his boyfriend.

that he doesnt exist, I dont have one...

That I don't have one.

Well, mine for one ISN'T invisible, so that means having to pay double at the movies, restaurants, nightclubs, you name it. Why can't I just be happy!

Not in a relationship now, but what annoyed me the most in my ex-bf was that, in spite of all his money, he would never pay anything, not even a phone call.

That's really sad that your imagining your imaginary boyfriend is cheating on you. You need help. My imaginary boyfriend would never cheat on me!

He is too clingy and follows me around on weekends when he comes to visit (Every weekend) so I almost never get to just ... play games or read or do things I like.

He is my first boyfriend and I think he's shit in bed because it's just not fun... He's only got me off once or twice and *Still* won't listen to me asking him not to play with my nipples, or that my neck is super sensitive and loves being played with.

He's a giant man-child who doesn't clean up after himself unless asked.

Whenever he wants a hug just just... hugs me. No matter what I'm doing, where I'm going, or whether I know, so I can be making a dash for the loo and suddenly I'm restrained. Then I get in trouble for asking to be let go. He KNOWS I hate being restrained, too.

His attitude in bed is all volume... fondle, grope, kneed, twist. No stroke, lick, or anything else... boy is hamfisted like Miss Piggy.

Nothing.

...he's imaginary. I don't have one. VERY annoying because sex with him feels almost exactly like masturbation.

He does this thing that is really gets on my nerves sometimes, so repetitive - constant in and out. I think it's called breathing.

Timberoo said so repetitive - constant in and out.

Damn, I thought you were going somewhere else with this.

ROFL!! Good one!

RunintheCity saidThat he is imaginary.

you stole my line.

He can be a bit of an attention whore, which he freely admits. He's a Leo, go figure...

He brings floss and a scrap of toilet paper to bed, turns off the light, crawls in and then starts flossing his teeth in the dark. Wait for it.... the worst part is that the wad of TP with dirty floss whiskers is left on the nightstand. Seriously, when you have OCD like mine, this is devastating.

There are so many good thing, I hesitate to focus on the others but on those occasions where we get into a snarl, he seldom apologizes for his actions. Doesn't really take responsibility. That really pisses me off.

But there's so much good otherwise that I don't want to worry too much about it.

OK, This from Bill.....

WARNING THIS IS GROSS!!!!! Read no further if having breakfast!!!!!!
















.....his ex had a horrible habit when he was sick with a chest cold - coughing then spitting into a glass. Bill used to always get after him because looking at that on the coffee table, ugh.

Well, one day the ex, sick with a bad cold and laying on the couch, fell asleep and waking up, was thirsty and reached for the glass and he.....

I will now go wash my brain with soap.


-Doug

...and from me, a guy I was dating had a bad habit. He'd sit on the toilet and swish his dick around in the bowl.

I'd had my mouth on that thing over a several month period and had no idea.

"What? It's only water." he said, [i]then[/i] flushed.



-Doug ( looking for bottle brush to soap up and use on brain)

Well, my ex loved to cook. And I love to eat. But sometimes I would come home and all I wanted to eat was something simple, like a sandwhch or noodles, but he would insist I eat what he cooked because he "slaved over a hot stove".

And the deal was that if he cooked, I cleaned the kitchen and he wasn't an organized clean cook. Every pot utensil and dish was used and after dinner, I would have to wash dished for hours.

Howz that for ingratitude!.....LOL

I know this is a recurring comment. Mine is imaginary too. I feel your pain guys. That is my only complaint.

There is truly nothing annoying about my bf. He is the most amazing, kind, considerate guy I think I've met.

Absolutely nothing, and I mean that.

Tapper saidAbsolutely nothing, and I mean that.

As it should be, IMO

you know what.... Im going to let Jay Brannan do the talking for me here. I find that "Half-Boyfriend" is perfectly fitting. He's never really bought me anything for a b-day, xmas, whatever... has forgotten my B-Day, lots of little things but even still.. I love him to death. Right now his fear of commitment is what is really pissing me off, or how he says he will call me back and never does. Hum... the fact that he smokes. He can drink too much. I will say that I am happy about 80% of the time and miserable the other 20. Its the price of admission. Im ok with paying it for now because I see him growing up and changing before my eyes. Oh one more, when he can leave me hanging on dates cause he is in the close this tyrannical family fucks up our plans but I give in because I consider them my family too. And being in the closet but like I said... I love him and as I see it for now... no... as I know as my heart is telling me.... this is no other for me. He is the one.
