Summary

After eight months cohabiting, he lists irritations: tangled hairdryer, open balcony door, fingerprinted mirror, misplaced gloves, and excessive cling film. He objects to noisy Japanese television, chopstick correction, rotating-fan use, discarded coffee- machine water, and his wife's frequent laundry. He defends reusing towels and clothes despite handling the laundry, then cooks curry pizza and prefers it to regular pizza.

Insight

Marriage shifts from dramatic crises toward ordinary compatibility disputes, while shared routine remains intact.
