RedDevil66 Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 No one is perfect and we all have issues/baggage and there are always going to be things that annoy us about our s/o's or that we dislike. Some may be deal breakers to some and to others, they may not be, What traits about your relationship partner that you truly don't like. Are there traits you just accept or traits that make you seriously consider ending the relationship

Author RedDevil66 Posted May 18, 2010 Author Posted May 18, 2010 lies defensiveness,no compassion,does not protect or stick up for me,always right Do you ever raise this issue with your SO? and if so, does he listen? Do you just accept them as who that person is or are they deal breakers? How long have you been together?
Woggle Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 I can't think of much. She is a little messy but it isn't that bad. She also likes to gamble and bet on things but even then it doesn't get out of control.
scatterd Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 I try but it seems to keep happening even after talking to him about any thing he get mad and defnsive he did not use to be.its been going on for a year but hes been defnsive along time.We have been together almost 17 yrs.Sometimes I think he hates me but he says I am his life and he loves me
jackson30 Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 She can't answer a simple question like "where would you like to go for dinner", she always has to answer with some statement like "I had salad for lunch".
scatterd Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 Ive excepted for many yrs somethings are not worth the fight but im getting ran down but more to the story.some things I can take but others really get to me woman can take alot but when they are at the end it shows.
quankanne Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 he's turning into a grumpy old man ... and that can be such a buzzkill, you know? yeah, he's got his share of things that he does that drives me up the wall – and I'm sure I do the same – but I can honestly say we've never hit the deal-breaker stage. For me, that entails abuse. For him, it's cheating.
Nikki Sahagin Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 I can only answer this in relation to exes...so its a bit similar to the 'what WONT you miss' over on the coping thread but still: First ex: * Arrogance; had a tendency to believe his opinion was always correct. * Very stubborn and at times close-minded i.e. didn't believe in religion or God or spirituality at all and didn't have the tiniest bit of the dreamer about him. * Did not stick up for me around his friends. I know its a time of equality and the girl can stick up for herself, but I am a very shy person so I always hoped he would step in for me, as he isn't shy. * Flashes of anger. * Found it difficult to communicate openly. Second ex (rebound): * Incredibly messy and unmotivated * Too much of a dreamer; had no sense of reality * Couldn't save money * Could not stick to goals i.e. giving up smoking.
DadofTwoGirls Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 Traits?...hmmmm...before or after years of marriage?...because before that all the traits were pretty much positive...but then their 'voice' starts eating away at you...the 'I'm always right' attitude wants you to kick them where the sun don't shine...the 'I'm too tired for sex' line makes you want to take the pillow and....or the 'silent treatment' makes you really dislike them...oh wait..you wanted to know the traits of our partners...my bad.
