I learned that my GF now Ex had to be barefooted while inside our place. Also she had a mild OCD, all the cans in cabinets had to have the labels facing forward and other little things like that.

I discovered she was a bit of a cleanfreak who goes into overdrive on a Saturday morning. Still not used to it 15 years later

She doesn’t actually like to snuggle when it’s time to go to sleep.

When we were dating the size of each of our beds mandated a certain amount of closeness. When we moved in together, we bought a king size bed. That’s when I found out that sleepy time is no-touchy time when she gets her preferences.

That she loved to gobble on other men’s cocks.

General untidiness, I'm a tidy person but not overly, so I'd consider myself to be normal in that respect. She's very untidy. Every surface gets filled with stuff that is left out for ease of access the next time, even though there may never be a next time and the amount of stuff lying around means nothing can easily be found. The kids take after her too as it's easier than doing it my way.

She only did her laundry once a month, never put anything back where it belonged, and only would clean the bathroom once a month.

Basically, with anything, wouldn't take care of stuff until the last minute, but by then it was too late. Would get overwhelmed and then just not do it anyway.
