Pet Hates

[intumult]

My g/f hates to see my white legs protruding out from a pair of knee length shorts and insists I wear jeans when I am out with her.

That set me to wondering if an of your g/f / b/f / partners have pet hates ?

[Maigo6]

Nope.

In fact she just takes a look around at some other Farangs in Thailand and thanks her lucky stars she's with me.

We hate pets

You know, Maigo6, I always had you down as the modest sort. It's good to see my suspicions confirmed.

I can only think of one of hers at the mo. She can't stand it when I impersonate the next door neighbour who happens to be a farang. Sometimes I call to his dog using his voice (the neighbour's, not the dog's ) and the poor hound wanders over looking really confused. That always gets her going. "Shhh, he'll hear you!"

But apart from that?

Actually, I can think of one of her pet-hates. When I ask her a question that requires anything approaching abstract thought. For example, my wife doesn't throw away her used 'phone cards when she's entered the credit onto her mobile. I noticed women in the Philippines do this, too. But when I ask her why she does it, she just grins and shrugs. Ok, so then I say something like "Ah, is it because you come from a society that isn't so geared towards happily disposing of something once it has served its purpose? You feel as if there has to be some intrinsic value to the card even though it is now, clearly, useless? Yes? No?" The normal response to this is "Shh, I'm watching this drama" or a sort-of uncomfortable, anxious look. Her English is fine, so it's not that. But then, she is a teacher so she's not used to being asked questions, after all...

White legs are not a good thing ?

But I sense something Freudian going on with this and share her concern .

Eating with her mouth open and making loads of noice. She says" it makes the food taste better" Yeh right!

I dated someone who kept losing mobile phones (genuinely, I think- I never bought him replacements, anyway)- and everytime he had to change his number I would change his listing on my phone to Ton 1... then Ton 2... then Ton 3... etc. Still in touch with him and we're up to Ton 5 now. He really gets red-faced when I mention it.

My pet hate towards my wife is her complete lack of thinking about time. Example, she will go out and tell me she will be back in 2 hours, but will come home after 8 or so hours. Then she will waste 2 hours on the phone to the very people she just saw earlier in the day.

Her pet hate towards me is the fact that I cannot say "no" to anyone and stress myself out doing things for everyone.

I dislike when my wife puts too much spices in the food, despite specifically instructing her not to do so on numerous times. I have refused to eat the food and made her cook another dish. Apart from this she is a good cook.

Agree entirely. I thought my white legs sticking out would be toooooo sexy, but, alas, nope, at least not for her.

I have deleted several posts that were offtopic and flaming. Please keep this together and light hearted.

for what it's worth my pet peeves are about shoes:

1) when people drag their feet along the ground - the scraping of the flip flops or sandals will put my teeth on edge.

2) when people flip their shoes off as they approach the doorway adding to the pile of shoes already there meaning I have to step on or over them to get inside.

3) when the kids fold down the back of their brand new shoes to turn them into a sort of sandal making it easier to flick off into the pile at the door and also means they drag as they walk

All in all these are minor irritations and I try not to let them get to me

I bet there's quite a few women around who would tell you where to stick your "instructions" and "demands".
