It's not clear which aspect of the pairing makes it tiresome for you.
Do you feel that you are the 'typer', or that you feel pushed, or being corrected too often?
Maybe for a change you may reverse the roles, or swing the pairing partner. Besides, it's not like the process is set in stone, each pair's dynamic could be different. Some pairs don't match well or wear out.
Bring it up, after all it's not a policy for its own sake.
