Just don't teach your significant other to drive manual. Have someone else do it. All the build up frustration over the first hour or so can be a near relationship ender right there. I speak from experience.

I've never owned a car that wasn't manual. First thing I do when I'm driving someone else's auto car is push the invisible clutch with my left foot before I go to turn the key...
