What are you particular about?

Cold drinks MUST be iced- I won’t drink water/juice/coke etc without ice cubes!! No room temp beverages for me 🤮 Also, it doesn’t matter how hot I am, I always have to have my blanket draped over me on the sofa or else I’m not comfy 😂
Haha this is so funny, these 2 things are what I'm particular about too!

I have to have ice in my drink all year round no matter how cold it is. I also always have a blanket over me, my boyfriend always looks at me like I'm crazy in the summer when I'm sat there moaning about how hot I am with a blanket :ROFLMAO:

I'm very particular about glasses, eg wine glasses/cocktail glasses etc.
Cannot drink wine out of a crappy glass. Cocktails can't be in tumblers, has to be in the corresponding glass, gin has to be in a gin glass. I hate stemless glasses.

I'm also quite particular about my wine. Has to be very cold, even champagne or prosecco. Warm wine or even room temp wine gives me the boak. Obviously red is an exception.
 
If I have water I have to have it at room temperature, not cold.
I can’t have food touching if it’s ‘wet’ food with dry food e.g. if I have jacket potato with butter and the butter goes runny and runs into my (dry) veg/salad I can’t eat it, it makes me heave. 😬 Dry food touching dry food is fine.

I found myself arranging clothes on the washing line by colour - all the blues together, all the black pants etc. I’ve made a conscious effort to stop doing it, I can get a bit obsessive.

It seems I'm in the minority when it comes to ice. I hate it in drinks, will always ask for my drink without it and if they put it in anyway, then I'll take it back.

Ah yes! I also have my bedroom window wide open in all weather's too. My boyfriend has even accused me of doing it just to get on his bits! I've done it from as early as I can remember.
Right. I love fresh air. It winds me up when the temperature gets too cold to open them, like -10 lol, even just for a few minutes.

My car. No eating in it or rubbish left in it. I also dust it frequently.

Oh yes, completely agree. My car is pristine. 9 times out of 10 though I'm the only one in it.
A friend of mine once attempted to light up in it and was promptly told where he could put his cigarette!

Me too. The amount of times I say no ice and it arrives with ice.

Toilet lid down before flushing. The thought of pee and tit particles spraying everywhere gives me the boak. 🤢

Always replace the toilet roll when one has finished and bin the holder. Hate seeing the empty roll sitting there, lazy and drives me mad.

I can’t drink out of a glass or cup without rinsing it out first. Doesn’t matter where I am, I just can’t. I also can’t bear tea stains on cups, it puts me off.

I wouldn’t eat food that fell on the floor, even if it was just the briefest second.

I don’t like certain foods touching on my plate (used to be worse when I was a little girl and it put me off a lot of foods). For example, beetroot touching mashed potato or beans touching chips.

I always have to make the beds in the morning and have windows open during the day to let fresh air in. I like it cosy at night time though.

Everything has to have its place. I can’t stand clutter, it heightens my anxiety.

Cold drinks have to be just that, very cold. Hot drinks have to be piping hot straight from the fires of hell. 😂

I have to get dressed and make all the beds before a certain time is the morning. Never had a pj day in all my 45 years and never will. Im very neat and tidy but the thing I’m most particular about is routine.I find spontaneity very difficult. * I am fun honestly 🤣

I can’t stand to see toothbrush heads touching each other in the beaker, so much so I’ve made everyone in the family use an electric one!
I hate ice in any drink.
I have to pull the bedsheets back to air for at least 30 mins before making.
Washing has to be hung out in size order.
And I go mental if anyone puts the “big light” on 😝

I think I might be in the minority that I let my coffee cool to room temperature before I drink it.

I will NEVER go near any type of communal fondue. Absolutely disgusting.

Punctuation and spelling. I'm ANAL about it. When we had the old Nokia phones in the 90s... I was the only one who didn't type that ridiculous "text speak". Anyone who uses it now, when smart phones basically spell everything for you, ought to be tarred and feathered!

Obviously....I'm only human and will make the occasional spelling/punctuation oopsie!

I am absolutely anal about the way the dishwasher is stacked. My husband just throws stuff in any which way. I ALWAYS have to take it out and rearrange it.
I HATE it when folk put the cutlery upside-down.... the dirty part must face up! Also folk who don't rinse food etc off before loading it really pisses me off!

If I come home after dark I’ll often find my family sat with the big lights on - well ours are actually spotlights so even worse - such a harsh horrid light. It’s like they don’t care??

The Big Light in my lounge is like a floodlight from a football stadium, the only time its on is if something is lost on the floor like a drawing pin and cant be seen with a normal light.

Indicating when driving. Especially at roundabouts. My boyfriend laughs at me for still doing it when there's no one around, but it drives me INSANE when people don't do it. You literally flick a stick up or down, a stick that is right next to your hand. It makes me wonder what else they can't be bothered to do. Bet they don't wash their hands after a pee either 🤢🤣
