Is this weird ?

My wife says that I am weird because I cannot drink from a cup or glass unless it has been thoroughly dried.

For example I go into kitchen for glass of water and there is a glass on drainer that has recently been rinsed out. I have to dry the glass before I use it.

Anybody else like this?

FREAK!

I do however loathe glasses that have watermarks on as they haven't dried properly or rinsed fully to remove the washing up liquid. I must wash it before using it!

Don't care if it's still a bit wet though :p

Yeah probably, I do it without even thinking. I must admit I can't help it, especially assessing risk in crowds. It's been 10 years but I will probably do it 'till I die.

I would not say its a bad habit though, you can never be too careful these days!
 
It sounds a little obsessive but nothing to be concerned about really. Just make sure that it dosent evolve into the scenario where you cant leave the house without washing your hands a 100 times or are constantley worried about lights that have not been turned off.
 
When I go to my mates house he doesn't have dishwashers and I have always had a dishwasher, so got use to the streak free super clean glass finish a dishwasher offers, his glasses are just left to dry on the draining board and i know their is nothing wrong but its my OCD and I need to rinse it out before drinking.
 
I just grab the nearest receptacle on the drainer, mug, glass etc. give it a quick rinse out and drink from it. Don't see how drying it is going to make it more hygienic? All this ultra hygiene stuff is stupid though, if you go to these lengths to avoid germs your immune system is going to be pathetic.

I don't do it as a hygiene things just a habit I suppose.

I am EXACTLY the same as this.

There is no way that i would ever drink from a vessel that was still wet, its even so bad that if i am in a pub and the glass i have has just come out of the washer i try to dry the glass as best i can :o

I honestly thought i was the only one.

I do this and I use kitchen towel as you can't trust T-towels, I also clean plates under the tap before washing them, we all do weird stuff.
 
I do it, but that's because people sometimes don't rise properly (or at all..I mean seriously?!) while they wash up. I don't really fancy drinking washing up liquid.
