i wasnt talking about suds on plates i always rinse them under the hot tap which at our house is hot enough to scald your hands if you arent careful it was the suds on the draining board from where i stacked the plates as i washed them that she went ape crap at.
suds + stainless steel + evaporation doesnt leave stains and it generally they are gone within 10 minutes anyway seems a waste ot whipe them away with a coth that will then need to be washed or dried again
 
Just face the fact that whatever you do you are going to do it wrong. If you clean the kitchen then you should have done the bathroom. If you mow the lawn you should have been cleaning the garage.

You can not win...why try? lol

Believe me lads I've been with mine for 35 years and it doesn't get any easier.
For the first time in years on New Years Eve we had nowhere to go.
At 7pm she came down looking absolutely stunning and I asked where she was going?
She said nowhere but she wanted to look nice for the evening.
At around 7:05 a muso mate rang asking what I was doing because he was really struggling with his voice and needed a backup for his gig.
I announced we were going out and she went absolutely bonkers:confused:
I'd never seen her so upset and she stormed off saying she wasn't ready to go out and she would have to change because she couldn't go in what she was wearing:confused:
At 9pm she came down wearing exactly the same clothes, shoes & jewellery :confused:
I then had 2 daughters telling me that I didn't understand.

Women.

She got all dressed up for you then you said oh we're going out? :p She must've put a lot of effort in for you and you announce you're going to some gig... That's not women, that's just inconsiderate. :p
 
Awesome thread, wish I could have been here earlier to add something constructive :D

To scared of bacteria some people, it's no wonder theres so many sick kids these days.

I wash my plates and then dry them with a teatowel without rinsing them "OH MY GOD WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE" I wipe my side down with the same cloth I've had for over a year "OH NO BACTERIA!"

I'm never ill, very very very rarely.

Exactly right mate! over sanitising/sterilising etc is totally daft and doesn't lead to a healthier body or lifestyle,quite the opposite infact,exposure to bacteria is a good thing,our bodies are chock full of trillions of bacteria which when properly in balance help to produce a strong immune system.

If you are really paranoid about bacteria on you Kitchen sponge though,a good tip to eliminate it,is a quick zap in the micro-wave,just a few seconds and all that nasty bacteria is dead if thats what you insist on. God knows what Micro-waves do to the naturally occuring/healthy bacteria in food,don't own one myself,I prefer more natural forms of heating my grub up.

True particularly in young children but to wash plates and then make them dirty again by using a germ infested tea towel seems a bit stupid, may as well not wash it in the first place :D
 
I've given up asking my OH to do the washing up. Never did it straight away - ensuring all the leftover dirt becomes crusty and you have to scrub! Always end up having to do it all again as there is still bits of food on the plates..

I now leave him to taking out the rubbish, hanging up clean washing and the ironing! :p

I tried to make the effort this morning. She was always complaining about me leaving the toilet seat up, so I decided to pee in the bathroom sink so there wouldn't be any mishaps. She went absolutely ballistic! I think next time I should wait until she's finished brushing her teeth. :cool:
 
Mine can act more insane than any other I've ever met. Examples to follow..

Her: Can you put your clothes away?
Me : Two minutes, I'm just finishing up something
Her : Can't you do it later?
Me : One minute babe, just logging off the PC and I'm on it.
Her : Fine, you don't love me. (stomps away in a mood) ....... :confused:

I bought her an expensive diner set for Christmas (on top of others gifts). She's been looking at a specific set she loved for months, but couldn't justify the price. She is in charge of buying for the new kitchen whilst I do the rest of the house (raw deal, I know). So good boyfriend that I am, I go and drop £400 on the complete set, soup plates, cups and saucers, teapot, sugar pot, desert plates, the works. Gets her sister to wrap it nicely, stick it under the tree.
Christmas day comes, opens if up, happy, hugs, makes a big deal of it, show everyone, etc. When focus goes off her to other gifts, I get a look saying 'I'll deal with you later'. Wtf? My nut starts turning fast, trying to cover all 3 million angles a specific diner set she wanted could upset her.
Later alone. She thanks me again then have a go at me for spending so much money, not letting her buy it as per agreement, etc. I said, it's Christmas ffs, it's a gift. "Yea yea, but I should have bought it as we agreed" . Ok, give me the money then. She goes quiet and walks away in a huff. So much for me doing a good thing. Now she loves the set but a drama had to be made first. Can't have it any other way.

A month ago in Brussels we went shopping and had lunch. So afterwards we did a little sight seeing. I pulled out the camera to take some pics of us, she refuses to be photographed.
Me : *sighs* What could possibly be wrong now?
Her: I don't have a mirror or make-up on me.
Me : *looks utterly confused* ...... and?
Her : Oh, you want to go show your mother photos of us in Brussels with me looking like a freak?
Me : No, my mother knows what you look like, I want to show everyone photos of us in Brussels?
Her: Not with me looking like this.
Me : *lets it go as it never goes anywhere good*

Another occasion.

Her : What do you think of my new shoes?
Me :*have literally no idea what any of her shoes look like* Yea, it's nice.
Her : It's not new shoes.
Me: *caught red handed, cornered* Oh....
Her: I can dye my hair red, put on 5 stone and you won't notice *storms away in a huff*

I can type hundreds more episodes like this. Let it be said, she is smart, incredibly hard-working and sane 98% of the time. It's just little moments now and again she goes bonkers.
