Are you able to ignore your partner when they say stupid / annoying things?

I find it very difficult, sometimes impossible, to ignore it when my partner makes stupid statements or behaves in an annoying way. When I say something, it angers/upsets them. I don't want to anger / upset them, but it is so difficult to bite my tongue. Can you offer some advice on how to ignore them without it being detrimental to my own peace / mental health. Thank you.

Should I negotiate price on a house in need of some love, but in a nice area?

I have seen a house in a nice area. Tell me, are house prices based heavily on the area they are in? Because this house is small, cramped, in need of some tlc, but the area is absolutely beautiful. I would love to live in that area but feel like the house isn't worth the money that is being asked.

I'm not going to post the link, but when I say it needs tlc, it is multiple minor issues incl. carpets need changing throughout, water tank needs to be replaced with combi boiler, walls need to be painted, thorough clean, 1 new bathroom replacement.

This is before the survey which may pick up other issues which aren't visible.

Advice appreciated.

Thank you in advance 🤗

How to encourage someone to stop complaining and be more positive

My partner constantly complains. I am fed up. From morning to night they complain about their looks, their health, their flat, what's on the TV, spiders in the flat, the weather, the noisy neighbours, their job, the cost of food items etc.

The thing is, their life is good and many would be jealous and envious.

I can't bear it anymore. It's bringing my mood down as I am a very positive and optimistic person who always tries to look on the bright side. When I try to make them look at the positives, I get told off!

Please help.
