I've been dating my bf for 2yrs now and he told me about his OCD in the beginning. I even researched it from this board and bought the recommended books which I also read.

Now he says he tries to do the exercises that the book states like waiting 15mins to do the compulsion, but most times I witness him just do the compulsion w/o even giving it a second thought. His main compulsion is plucking his eyelashes, which drives me crazy, since he'll do it in the middle of a conversation. I tell him to "stop it" and immediately he will, but how do I get him to perform the "rules" to prevent him from even doing it?

Just the other day we got into a huge arguement because he likes order and pre-preparing things ex.)right before we exited & shurt off the car he turned the radio station to his favorite morning station and I said why would you have to do that now & he said he just can't help that. I flipped and said I'm sick and tired of everything about you being OCD.

I know that's the wrong thing to say, but it get so frustrating watching all these things (like organizing clothes as soon as he takes them off, etc..), how can I help without enabling??
