I've been in a relationship with my partner now for nearly 20 years They've recently let me know they really dislike when I use the word "man" at the end of a statement I'm from the Northeast of England, I'm saddened that they hate the way I speak, but I don't know what to do.
@fesshole This is really sad. I’m sorry it irritates them, but it’s part of you. Sometimes in a partnership we have to put up with minor irritations. There are a few things my husband does habitually that annoy me, but I let them slide because overall he’s great.
