I need relationship advice. Should I break up with my boyfriend?

Hi
I've been living with my boyfriend for almost a year. He's an amazing man. He's very different than most men because he helps a lot. He cleans, washes his own clothes, acts like a gentleman. Plus he's very attractive.
Sounds like the perfect man right?
Well the problem is that since he's too perfect he expects me to be the same way and he's very demanding. He criticizes me for a lot of things. He doesn't like how I drive and tells me what to do. I think he should respect that I'm the one who's driving but he tells me to speed up, change lanes and such. I know what I'm doing but he wants me to drive the way he wants.
He also expects me to read his mind. One day he was cleaning the house and I was out running errands. When I came back he told me: "I thought you were going to offer me a glass of water since I've been working so hard". Maybe he's right but I had other things in my mind at the time. Plus, if he wants water he can simply ask me or get it himself. I'm not a mind reader but we always argue over small things like this. Even with hugs I'm expected to know when he wants a hug. And I'm not the type of girls that likes to cuddle all day long.
So I'm having many problems because he can't accept that I make mistakes. I'm nowhere near perfection like him and it's making me really frustrated, as if I'm not his type of girl.
The problem is that he's a great guy and I know I won't find anyone like him but he's just too demanding and critical. We have thought about having kids in the future but I don't have experience with babies. What if he's demanding with the way I educate them? I'm really confused. Should I leave him or continue with this relationship?

Multiple accounts badge don't mean jack, y'all. Take a look at my account.
I think you should speak up for yourself and tell him you're not a mind reader and he can get his ass up and get his own water if hes thirsty as well as if he thinks he can drive better, he can take the wheel next time.
But that is just how I would do things

Posted by FknMeowI would bring you water boo!
All he wants is water, hugs, and for your driving not to scare people... Not a lot to ask for.
LOL all i can say is don't give a man a cookie for doing a basic standard. they get needy for praise afterwards
Have you tried talking to him ab how you feel?
Just say that you think he needs to calm down. He sounds like he's abit controlling and likes to clean alot. You are different and it's good two people aren't the same. I'm sure you do plenty of things he doesn't.
