I have recently caught my husband picking his nose and seaking a taste on several occasions. It really bothers me. Is it normal for a grown man to do that, and how should I confront him?

As long as he doesn't make you eat it, leave him alone. It won't kill him or make him ill, granted it isn't the nicest of bad habits, but is it really that big a deal? If he does it in public etc. it might be a good idea to point the fact out to him that it really isn't a very nice action for others to watch.
But I'll tell you this, I would rather he do that than hold his finger over one nostril and blow the contents of the other all over the street. As for a grown man doing it? we don't always stop the habits we developed as children when we grow up. Age has nothing to do with it. I bet he doesn't even realize he's doing it half the time.

I have caught my wife picking/eating before, so it's not just a guy thing. I recently got some advice, which was to tell her "honey, you look sooo hot when you do that!" but in a very sarcastic tone of voice. This seems to work, as she was VERY embarrassed the last time I caught her snacking. I think it is just an unconscious habit, so you need to MAKE him conscious. But, altogether it's not that big of a deal, especially if this is the worst of your problems. In my case, I wouldn't trade my booger-eating wife for any other woman in the world! Best of luck.

Yes, you MUST confront him on this issue. Tell him if he has to do that then he should go to the bathroom. or someplace else where he can have some privacy. And instead of seeking a taste, he should just thow it away. Lastly, he should wash his hands very thoroughly.

That is perfectly normal. You should just go up to him and say hunny I would apreciate it if you could stop picking your nose and eating it. Im sure he'll understand if hes a good guy. Hope I helped. Good luck be strong!

To be honest whille i'm driving I see guys do that all the time, I figured it was a guy thing. I would confront him, tell him you saw him doing that and explain to him how disgusting you think it is. Be prepared for him to tell you "I didnt do that, thats not what u saw"!

lol, I can see why it would bother you. But I would just ignore it. Now if he is doing this before he tries to kiss you lol, then it may be time to bring it up. Just tell him what you saw and ask him to stop.

Ooh Gross! Slap his hand and tell him that's nasty and make him go wash his hands! If he wants to act like a nasty little kid then treat him like one!.....Ugh I'd think about that anytime he tried to get a kiss!....Yuck!

No, it´s not normal, and i think you just have to tell him that´s bother you, it seems that he doesn't know you watched him or he even figure that´s bother you.
Best regards

Just hand him a tissue...and frown at him and walk away. Or tell him there will be no kissing after that!
