This is a question Annoying Partners

As a recent divorcee, it would be churlish to reveal what annoys me the most about my ex, apart from that unfortunate business with the crinkle-cut beetroot which tipped us over the edge. So, what winds you up about your significant other? If you have no partner, tell us about workmates. If you have no workmates, improvise with an annoying tramp

Having a mobile phone
and not taking it anywhere, ever, because it was too bulky. And then complaining that I didn't call her regularly.

*Facepalm*

She also once had a go at me saying I didn't love her because the fire alarm in our building went off and I insisted on getting up to find out what was happening. Apparently, if I loved her, I would have stayed in bed with her, even if there WAS a fire.

Finally, after we broke up, she once had a go at me for not getting a 'proper job', because I was working in Woolworths to pay my rent until I could get something better. She was unemployed at the time, living with her Mum, who was a 'Crystal Healer'.

She also had a go at me a while later for having a one night stand with a mutual friend, saying that even though we'd split up, I still should have thought about how it would effect her feelings. This conveniently ignored the fact that she'd started seeing one of my best mates a fortnight after we split up.

She's now a successful academic. No common sense, obviously, but there you go.

But on the plus side
she's your ex and you don't have to take that shit anymore. In fact, you could be telling her to fuck right off for good measure and actively pursuing her friends. Or maybe that's a step too far, but you know what I mean.

If I was a proper B3ta type...
I'd correct that mistake. But I'm not, so I shall not.

I hate that distinction
and would use the defence that usage dictates correctness, and most people bugger this one up quite regularly.

Therefore it's staying as it is.
