-When I talk on the phone standing up I walk around. If I'm in my kitchen I walk around the table in circles, stepping diagonally on the cracks of the tiles
-Foot flusher/toilet-seat-riser since college days
-always nail biter, gotta stop that somehow
-Used to chew on my knuckles. Both second index finger knuckles were raw when I was a kid. Good thing I broke that habit...
-I feel like I'm always being watched... (nervous) but that's another problem

my boyfriend does some weird stuff too...
when in his car he constantly checks to make sure the side mirror adjuster is turned to the left side and then immediately locks the doors.
he won't turn off the tv without putting it on channel 5 first.
he also won't close a window of internet explorer without returning it to the home page.
he's a bit of a freak sometimes...

You'd be crazy NOT to realize that it has to come off from the topkatsmp3 said:
I think most of my OCD things, like your bf and his getting out of the car routine, are just a compensation for my less than stellar memory for certain things. So you end up setting a pattern so you won't forget - like wiggling the shifter when you turn the car on - we all know it sucks and it's embarassing to start your car in gear and have it jump and stall on you. That's why most of us do it
Oh, the human mind... what a screwed up web it weaves
haha, ok, some things are too irrational to explainsiberiankiss said:
and once they become habits it's a beotch to break. Do you realize how unsettling it would feel for your boyfriend to leave the TV on another channel? Really force him to do it once, it will just drive him crazy!! I know it would for me (screwy)siberiankiss

haha...he does have an explination for the tv one...he says when he was little he always watched HBO the most and it was on channel 5, so when he turned off the tv, he would put it on channel 5 so it'd be there the next time he watched. but HBO isn't on channel 5 in anymore, so it's even weirder...cbcbd said:haha, ok, some things are too irrational to explain
i also try to explain to him that if he doesn't return the pages to the homepage, that they will still go there when he opens ie again...he knows this, but is just weird about it. if for some reason his homepage isn't working though, he will break down and close it without it fully returning. he even does it when he has 5 or 6 windows open though. it's a pain in the ass when i'm waiting for him so we can leave...
Thank God, I'm not the only freak here.
1-bite the inside of my cheeks all the time
2-soap up twice in the shower
3-always have the volume on everything at an even #
4-steering wheel must be centered when parked
5-always check the alarm clock before sleeping
6-use a paper towel to open public bathroom doors
6-when out and around, always go to the bathroom at a decent place. I will go out of my way to find a hotel or decent dept store

-i have to have something to drink with me 24/7
-i take 3 showers a day (one in the morning before class mainly to wake me up, one after last class to relax my back because it gets stiff from sitting, one at night before bed) if i miss any of them im in a bad mood the rest of the day.
-i cant stand it when people drop lit cigs, i'll end up putting it out for them.
-when i see someone using the wrong tool for what they are trying to do it'll drive me insane until i'll either quit watching or give them the right tool.
-when i used to smoke cigs i had to finish it all the way to the filter, there couldnt be any left. drove my ex insane lol.
-when i put gas in my car it has to be rounded off the the nearest dollar (i've run it over alot)
-in class if someone (even the teacher) mispells (i probably just mispelt that) something on the board i'll walk up and correct it.
-wheels have to be turned to the left or right when i park, car has to be in first gear.
-i check to see if my cars locked at least 4 times before my remote runs out of range and still have this gut feeling i didnt lock it.
i think thats about it
