9 Remarkably Annoying Guy Habits That We Simply Cannot Stand ...
By Lisa

I’ll be the first to admit that girls have some irritating behaviors, but there are tons of annoying guy habits I can’t stand either! I mean, I have love for the male species, but there are some common habits that men share that I wish they would just collectively quit. You know what I’m talking about, brazen nose picking, drinking past the point of diminishing returns, etc. So, if you have a guy in your life, I’m sure you can relate to some of these annoying guy habits.

1. Empty Containers

One of the top annoying guy habits I can’t stand is the empty containers that never seem make it into the trash. It doesn’t matter if it’s a drink container or a household product, they just put it back where they found it! I don’t know if a lot of men have a problem with throwing things out or they just didn’t feel like getting up and throwing it away. Either way, I know I’d appreciate it if empty containers would get tossed in the trash.

2. Dirty Laundry

Another common bad guy habit that I’ve witnessed is the littering of dirty laundry on the floor. C’mon guys! Can you just throw your dirty laundry in the hamper which is conveniently located just a few feet away from you rather than on the floor where it can get stepped on? When I do laundry, I don’t always check the floor before I do a load.

3. Leftover Hair

I know I leave behind stray hairs here and there, but guys can be so much worse! While I don’t choose to lose any of my hair, I know many men who shave or cut their hair and leave most of the hair in the sink! Would it kill ya to sweep up and clean up a little bit before you move on to something else? I know shaving is a pain, but it’s gross to leave hair all over the counter.

4. Not Listening

I know there are many women who are guilty of not listening when they say they are, but men take the cake! You can be talking to your guy about something important and when you ask for his opinion he has no idea what’s going on. Really? Some studies have pointed out that men and women focus differently thus men are more likely to be distracted but come on.

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.

5. Randomly Farting and Burping

I realize that burping and farting are normal bodily functions, but men have taken it to a whole other level! I swear that some guys try to burp and fart as long and loud as possible, as if it’s a competition with themselves. Guys, we know you need to do those things, but can we stop making a production out of it?

6. Man Part Obsession

So this next bothersome guy habit might not be an obsession, but it sure seems like it sometimes. Guys seem to be unable to keep their hands off of their man parts. Whether they’re out in public or in private, it seems like they’re always the center of attention for him. We get that the boys might need some adjustment at times, but can we be a little more discreet?

7. Leaving the Seat up

This is one of the oldest guy habits that have been frustrating women for decades. I know it can be a hard habit for men to break if they’ve been living alone or with other guys for a long time. But honestly, it takes a second to put the seat back down so why not do it and make the females in your life happy?

8. Selective Memory

We’ve determined that some men have selective hearing, but some men have a selective memory. You know how your guy might be able to remember every single last detail about the stock market or a football game? Why is it that he’s not able to have such a good memory when it comes to the details of your relationship or other personal things?

9. Saying They’ll Call and Not Calling

This is another common guy habit that just about any girl can relate to! Whether you’re dating someone new or you’ve been with your guy for years, men are notorious for saying they’ll call you and not following through. Maybe they have a lot on their mind or their selective memory prevented them from remembering to call; either way it’s just plain rude!

Can you relate to some of these annoying guy habits? I love my guy and my guy friends, but there are definitely some things I’d like to change if I could! What annoying guy habits would you add to this list?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

Besides the leaving the seat up thing, I know plenty of chicks that do the same stuff It\'s 2013, can we really say those r only male attributes?

Love this! Haha

When they have a shower,leaving the bathroom an absolute mess!

I don\'t see what the big deal is about leaving the seat up. Maybe if women had more common sense and looked to see if it was left up first you wouldn\'t fall in and complain about how your man doesn\'t think about it. There are worse things in the world then tht.

Ughh the farting and the hair surrounding the sink after shaving drives me CRAZY! But I\'m 100% sure there are many things I do that drives my husband just as insane!

Yes, these are all SO true...and yes some, if not all of them can apply to us too lol...But with guys it seems there is a confluence of some of these behaviors once they seem to feel comfortable with you, I think that\'s why they are annoying...and I can add a couple: TP is for peeing to guys! If you\'re content not to clean Mr. Johnson, could you at least wipe up some of what he left behind? And sheets do get dirty! And they can smell, yuck! So you can change them if you can spare the five minutes it takes to make up the bed...and last but by no means least: that thing called the dish washer? You are supposed to put your used dishes in it, not the sink, and when it\'s full, you run it! Then you you don\'t have to ask \" hey babe, we got any clean glasses?\" Yeah, they make up for it in so many other ways, but...

Forget things easily..for example old memories.a girl tends to remember more than a guy!

The selective memory thing is spot on! Also,the house bathroom would be a pleasant place to visit if girls left the seat down for the ladies leaves it up for the guys. It should work both ways,people! ;)

These apply more to men, specific men in specific situations. Ex. My guy is insane when Miami Heat plays during B-Ball season; I anticipate strong lack of listening along with selective memory during the game, followed by leaving the toilet seat up (sometimes he doesn\'t flush after a pee!)

If it only takes 1 second to put the seat down then clearly it shouldn't take you too long to put it down why should us men have to constantly lift the bastard up to go to the toilet. We lift it up and don't complain, maybe you should be it down and not complain
