Poor time keeping
What Men Say:
At number two in our top ten was shoddy time-keeping. Just under twenty five percent said lateness was their biggest pet hate when it came to their wife or girlfriend.
‘I would say you ladies take far too long to get ready for a night out, but that’s just my opinion,’ says Sam (pictured), 21, a sign maker from Southend-on-Sea.
Others are more explicit: ‘We have a meeting at 7 and it’s 6.45 and not only are we still at home, but she hasn’t even had a shower yet. She doesn’t seem to care.’
What the Experts Say:
‘Another key to a great relationship is valuing each other,’ says Mary. ‘Being late is rude. It shows a lack of respect for the other person and tells them they are not valued.’


Fashion is a business, but you must always stay true to yourself.
“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.”
