Is there anything about your significant other that, had you known about it earlier, would have been a deal breaker?

My wife is terribly unorganized and, frankly, a slob. She knows it and owns it. It’s like living with a college frat boy with memory issues. Clothes everywhere, nothing ever goes back where it came from, and she never has any idea where she left anything.

However, the whole time we dated and even after we first got married she did her best to minimize this. It helped that I love to clean and organize. Soon though, cracks began to appear until she finally admitted she just does not care about such things.

I’ve learned to live with it and, of course, I love her for a hell of a lot more than her ability to clean and stay organized — but I gotta tell ya, it’s exhausting…and I’m already exhausted.

Had I known this way back when we were dating, would I have married her? Hmmmmm?

How’s about you jellies?
