As a general rule long-term partners are annoying. Anyone who doesn’t find their partner a bit (or lot) annoying sometimes (often!) is blessed with Saint-like patience & understanding. For the rest of us mere mortals we have a choice. I could make a list in my head of all the ways my husband (or replace with kids / boss etc) is annoying. Or I could think about all the great things about him, his efforts and why I married him. Either choice will bring me more of the same as we notice far more of what we focus our attention on. Guess which option is going to help your relationship to flourish?! Make a conscious choice people and enjoy your relationship a little more ????. Pls like / share.
