Our Facebook fans tattle on their partners' weird habits.
Behind closed doors, everyone is a little bit of a weirdo. And no one knows this better than the people we love. I never knew I has such offensive toothpaste habits until I got married. Apparently, it's not okay to squeeze from the middle and toss out a tube when it gets too crusty. Who knew? The answer: my husband. In this week's edition of "Is This Normal?" we asked you for the weirdest things that your partner does.
Me, me, me! Why do so many guys only talk about themselves on the first date?
I was wondering how he was able to breathe. He had been talking non-stop for most of the night, covering every topic under the sun: his job, his family life, where he vacations, how big his apartment is, what languages he can speak, and now, as if he's finally running out of things to say, what he was like in high school. Which was 10 years ago.
A survey says that after the three-year-itch is the new seven-year-itch.
After getting together with someone new, how long does it take before that person's quirky mannerisms become super annoying? Off the cuff, most people would answer seven years, as in "the seven-year itch," but a recent study has revealed that the spark dies about three years into a relationship.
Where I come from, there's a saying: "Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day; teach a man to fish and he will abandon his family every weekend." A fellow named Lee Jackson must be from the same area. In a story that could have come from an episode of The Simpsons, Mr. Lee Jackson decided to spend a little extra time on the lake rather than with his family. His marriage, unsurprisingly, ended in divorce.
The annoying habits of men that sometimes make us wonder why we're still together.
You love your S.O. You really do. But, sometimes, you wonder how it is that you've made it this far without turning to homicide. Deep down, he's a good person and, well, obviously he completes you. But you just hate it when he throws his dirty clothes on the floor—right next to the hamper—no matter how many times you ask him not to. And the coffee table is a mishmash of his dirty dishes. And dude. It's not as funny as he thinks it is when he "plays the drums" on your thunder thighs. Stay strong, readers. Remain calm. You're not the only ones experiencing bouts of agitation with the man you love. Below, 7 more things men do that get on women's nerves. Unsurprisingly, a lot of these complaints involve housecleaning.

Tiffanie Wong's husband, Mark Joyella, may be the most annoying man ever.
The blog MyHusbandIsAnnoying.com is written by Tiffanie Wong. And man is she right. Her husband, Mark Joyella, has some annoying habits. But are Mark's idiosyncrasies, amusing as they are, worth airing? Is a dangerous dirty laundry precedence being set? And what does anyone really expect when cohabiting (though married) in a small apartment?
Guys, we love you. You make our hearts swoon, you're the fathers of our children, you are advisors, companions and friends, but there are certain gender-specific things you do that drive women nuts. For example, leaving the toilet seat up? We know this is a clichéd male complaint, but seriously. It's rude. Your momma raised you wrong if you find it hard to flush and lower before leaving the bathroom.
Being in love is not a crime but please don't use your pet names in public.
To the couple who gets on the dirty, overcrowded subway and feels the need to look into each other’s eyes, whisper sweet nothings, and make out for all of three stops - save it.
Loveyoubut.com pays tribute to the trivial annoyances that can ruin relationships.
Alex Holder and Ross Neil got together three years ago and made an effort to be honest with each other about the little quirks that can quickly drive a partner mad. The couple, both creatives at a London ad agency, recently launched a website featuring possible endings to the "I love you, but..." declaration. Ross drew pictures to accompany the phrases, and the result is loveyoubut.com, an amusing, often cringe-worthy tribute to the relationship dealbreaker.
Men tell it straight about what really bugs them about women.
According to an article by iVillage, men hate it when you criticize other women, are too emotional, use sex as a weapon, and pretend to be virtuous. "A recurring theme among many women is that they try to place themselves under a "holier than thou" light, never admitting that they fooled around or dividing their number of boyfriends by five. Now, we applaud those ladies who truly are innocent and pure, but the rest should stop trying to water down their past. Women are allowed to have just as much fun as guys, and they should find a man who can appreciate that."
