NOW...about him smacking his food. That, I CANNOT handle. oye...i have some training to do LOL
I always found trades work really well in these situations. Tell him that it really bothers you & see if he can be more mindful. Then ask if there anything you could for him.

However, this might be one of those things you just have to get used to. My husband has this aweful habit of looking at me like I have 3 heads if I don't use the exact right word for something or if I'm recounting a story & I say there were like 500 people there he'll say well it was actually only 495. He knows it drives me up a wall, but he just can't help it; it's part of him, so it may just be something you will have to learn to deal with.
