Yeah, as long as you are willing to silently accept negative critique of your technique. Guilty.  But only when it comes to towels and washcloths. Really, DH, it IS possible to fold and stack them facing the same direction. |

Hey, the only time I need to criticize ... That is great for your DH. My ex had a much higher level of need to criticize. And that's likely why she's your Ex. If you are lucky you learn that marriage is not about perfection, there will be things you really dislike about your partner and there will be possibly many compromises made in your journey together. If your life is overall better with that person in it, hopefully that is what matters.
Some people you can train out of too much criticism, and some you can't. Sometimes its best to just agree you both have different ways of doing things as long as you aren't risking dishes dropping on your head when you open the cabinets or something similar. YMMV. MO.

Hey, the only time I need to criticize ... That is great for your DH. My ex had a much higher level of need to criticize. I'm guessing maybe that's why she's the ex? I could say something about how DH folds towels (he sort of rolls them up, rather than folding), but hey, he's helping, they're getting put away, & they won't get wrinkles, so I don't say anything...  |

My requirement is that the fit in the space allotted, which isn't much, so just fold them my way.  |

I just leave them in the laundry basket and pull from there as needed, problem solved - but then I discarded the terrible towel folder long long ago!!! |

Everyone in my house has their own specific towel. So I hang those back up and whatever's left in the basket is usually still there next time I wash towels. |
