I crack my knuckles and other parts of my body. I don’t even mean to half the time. It just happens. When I bend down, my knees crack like crazy. When I flex my foot, my ankle cracks. My toes, wrists, and elbows do too. I guess he hates the sound because he freaks out and tells me to stop. I do crack my knuckles intentionally but they hurt if I don’t. I don’t get the big deal. I think he can learn to get over it. It lasts for two seconds. So annoying.

Lol for the people saying I’m insensitive, I’ve already stated that I often can’t help it. I bend down and my knees crack about 15 times. I extend my arm and my elbow and shoulder cracks multiple times. I do intentionally crack my knuckles because they feel tense and hurt if I don’t. He doesn’t have sensory issues or misophonia. He just thinks it’s annoying and that it will ruin my joints because he did it and he has sore joints now. He completely ignores the fact that he worked outside in a labor intensive job for 40 years of his life. He also ignores the fact that every doctor we’ve spoken to has said it doesn’t cause arthritis or joint issues. I think he could gain some empathy and not yell the way he does. I am an empathetic person and I have an annoyance. Hence my anonymous complaint on an online forum. How about the person who said they’d slap me gain some empathy. Or those telling me to grow up. How about he grows up? Saying “hey this bothers me” is not the same thing as SCREAMING at me.
