Husbands and Wives: He’s Driving Me Crazy!:

“What’s your husband’s most annoying habit? Is it the way he slurps his cereal or cracks his knuckles? Is it the way he breathes, as one woman actually complained?

The longer you’ve been married, the longer your list of pet peeves is bound to be. It’s not so much that your spouse has added more bad habits over the years, but simply that the ones that were easy to put up with in the early days of your marriage have gradually eaten away at your nerves. Now they’ve reached that really tender spot that makes you yell ‘Ouch!’ - and the honeymoon Novocain has worn off.”

This article is good as it discusses the seasons of most marriages to give compassion. However if one sees the annoying habits of the spouse as an opportunity to be thankful for the chance to give grace, our love may be built up with one another.
