Things your significant other does that you find strange

When we were in the middle of the visa process, I came across a forum where people who are trying to be together with their foreign partners are talking about their experiences. The most entertaining thread to me was always one with the same title as this one. I know, not everybody here is with someone from another culture, but I guess everybody has their little pet peeves, especially with the ones you spend your life with ...
What I think is a little weird is that my S.O. doesn't care to use the knife when we are eating. He puts one hand in his lap and eats mainly with the fork. And whenever we go somewhere, he gets himself a beef jerky and a Red Bull, which is a combination of flavours that I don't even want to start to imagine having in my mouth
Oh, and he never had fresh dill before I came into his life. He sleeps with two pillows under his head, which gives me a stiff neck. The smell of newspaper makes him sick and he doesn't want to touch cotton balls. :fp:
I love him to pieces, these are just small things that I notice in everyday life (and I'm sure he has a list too :P )
So, what are things your significant other does that you find strange, if you are willing to share?

Peanut butter and chocolate is the "best combination ever" to him, no matter how tooth-jerking sweet it is. This combo seriously makes me gag, it reminds me of the taste of Eastern German "chocolate"
Yeah, come on Americans, whip me :P
you two are fucking awesome
you must try chocolate peanut butter ice cream. #heaven
Been there, done that, but #hell. Sorry. No can do.
S.O. doesn't like the taste of German red cabbage, which is strange to me, cause I'm in heaven when I eat it.
dude!! I have tried!! I have tried a bunch!! no sale.. she actually makes a face when I eat it.. the kind of face a father gives his son when he quits the baseball team to take up dance.. its fucking horrible and it actually alters the wonderful taste for me..
we pulled of the road on sunday to by girl scout cookies.. She was excited because she had never had one before.. I bought Tagalongs.. she bought some lemon zest puke bullshit..
cultural differences..

have you tried vanilla ice cream with peanut butter and chocolate syrup on top?
i do like sausage and kraut, but peanut butter and ice cream is awesome....pretty much peanut butter and anything is good.
have you tired toast with butter, peanut butter and jelly....it's to die for
I would try it with bacon instead of jelly ... Yum, that sounds actually good.
Pricey... gas station class
:shock:
Alright, I'll try it one day.
To stay with the topic, what also comes to my mind is that my beloved hubster uses a bar of soap instead of shower gel. It's kind of oldschool and I like it, but I think I don't know anybody else who does it.
This shit right here..
