My X used to pick his nose and leave it all over on furniture, etc. He refused to believe that closing your mouth when you chew is good manners. He used things and left them just anywhere, and when he couldn't find them later, it was my fault. He had long nose hairs that hung wetly down beyond his nostril and could not see why I wanted him to trim them. He refused to trim his razor-sharp toenails and if he did, I'd be walking on them in the bathroom later.

I can't finish eating my lovely cheetos since I started reading this thread. I think I actually puked in my mouth a little.
Anyway...I can say alot of the same things. But not to get into too much detail:
I love not having to look down when I walk (who KNOWS what I would step in)
Toilets don't leak in the front
Bathroom sinks don't really grow little hairs, and neither does my toothbrush...
I love being able to have white sheets again!
The shower stall doesn't have lumpies growing on it...
Napkins are actually used in the house now, not just the furniture..
(lots more but gonna end it now)
And my favorite thing is........
People STILL stay when they come over (over a year later), "Wow, Amy, you're house smells so good nowadays! Not like before...."
Blllleeccccccccchhhhh.

#2 Not brushing his teeth (bad breath)

#4 Sneezing a HUGE sneeze and not covering his mouth
#5 making fun of everything I buy
#6 Embarrassing me in public w/his attitude
#7 The LIES
#8 Chewing w/his mouth open
#9 When he'd shave he'd leave hair shavings in the sink.
Letting the shower fairies clean out the hair ball
The few time she ever did the laundry, thinking the laudry fairies folded the clothes too, and then getting me to iron her clothes
Never telling me where she hid the money tree
I have to admit, my life was on how much I did for others, if they were happy I was happy.
I am really enjoying the freedom of only being responsible for me!
