So true! Woman shares the most annoying thing her husband says

What's the most annoying phrase your other half can say?

When it comes to arguments with your partner, everyone has different things that annoy them. That said, there's one phrase that seems to be universally irritating. Online forum Mumsnet has sparked many a heated debate and the latest one is getting lots of attention as one woman describes how this particular sentence drives her round the bend and back again. Her husband has a habit of saying 'if you want me to do something, just tell me' and as she points out, this suggests that 'he doesn't ever take the initiative to plan or think about what needs doing'. He'll do something if asked to but she's gotten to the point where she's extremely frustrated at having to constantly give him tasks, instead of him just having the sense to do it himself. An extract from her post reads:

"Why do I always have to be the one that thinks about what needs doing domestically? Like what cleaning needs doing, or that we're about to run out of bread, or that we need to buy a present for a party at the weekend. "Why can't he ever work out for himself that if the laundry bin is full that probably means we need to put some laundry on without me having to specifically point it out? Or that it will never occur to him to hoover or clean anything unless I've specifically asked him to do it?"

It seems that this lady isn't the only one annoyed with her 'dear husband' as many of the replies say that their partners are prone to this too and that it drives them crazy too. Others shared their pet hates including one habit of leaving crisp packets on the countertop, not to mind those who neglect fridge-cleaning and towel-changing. You can see the post in full here and needless to say, it's been getting quite the reaction.
