This is a question Bizarre habits

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "Until I pointed it out, my other half use to hang out the washing making sure that both pegs were the same colour. Now she goes out of her way to make sure they never match." Tell us about bizarre rituals, habits and OCD-like behaviour.

I'm left-handed and so is my husband
I'd ALWAYS slept on the left side of the bed until we met 5 years ago, he insists he should sleep that side. Being on the right just unsettles me but really both of us should want the right side, as we're left-handed and it's easier to reach the table that way.

I also have to salute magpies and cannot walk across 3 drains because it's bad luck.

Which isn't so bad compared to what my mum has been through as she actually has OCD. She used to have to clean things an even number of times, once cleaning the bath multiple times at 2am. She's also been known to leave the house and have to return because she hasn't cleaned things an even number of times. In recent years she's got it down to doing things twice which is as good as it gets I think.

The drains one...
I think is because the IRA used to plant bombs under the three drain combos. This is the explanation I've heard...

But then mine now stems to if I walk over a three by accident then I have to find a two to walk over. Strange.

where is the door relative to your bed?
It's a fairly deep-seated instinct in most men to want to sleep closest to the door (to defend the nest, or some such) no matter which hand he favours. Mostly they want to avoid sitting with their backs to the door, also.

This might explain your dilemma
