’I’ve just shit my pants, literally’

He messaged me this today from work.
He’s not been feeling well recently and complains of a funny tummy in front of our Dd, 6.

Aibu to feel totally put off by this and to just not want to know? Or am I just a cold, uncaring person?!

I've sent similar to my DH 🤷‍♀️. There's no such thing of over sharing in a marriage.

I didn’t mean anything wrong in mentioning it in front of Dd, there’s nothing wrong with that at all, I just meant he’s often going on about things like that and I just really don’t want to know these things or hear constant trumping or to be told ‘Oh I’m got a funny tummy’ before he heads to the loo.
A real problem, of course I’d be sympathetic/worried

God how awful him saying those immortal words

Funny tummy!

I just don’t know what was expected of me? To laugh, say are you ok…what?
Now I’m feeling a mix between finding it funny, but also worried it’s something bad 🙈

Personally I would have responded, "Oh no...poor you! Are you feeling all right? Do you need to come home? Make sure you chuck those pants away first haha 😂 💩"

Yes I do how do you feel seen as your digging me out you must me feeling strongly about how I’m feeling …how strange

Really not that deep, I've just been laughing at your comments that's all.

Awww sorry yes I’ve just looked back …glad your laughing along with me I’ve been pissing myself laughing while messaging hope it hasn’t put anyone off 🤣🤣🤣

K0OLA1D · 16/05/2024 21:00

I'd be concerned it was a bug and I too may succumb to shitting myself!

I laughed when I received this text.

Asked if he needed new pants dropped off 😂

DelythBeautyQueen · 16/05/2024 20:59

I'd be worried if I got a message like that from my husband, because he would have to be very ill for that to happen. It wouldn't put me off him and I hope he wouldn't be put off if the same thing happened to me.

Did you think he was trying to be sexy?!

I'd find it funny but feel sorry for him at the same time.

Sunshineclouds11 · 16/05/2024 20:48

We are talking about being told that a partner has shit his pants ffs not got a sore throat or feeling under the weather

You feel so strongly about this don't you 😂

Totally different. It isn't the shit or an illness that is the problem. I'd support anyone 100%, it's the being at work so clearly not that incapacitated and seemingly proud and lol'ing about it

I doubt he was PROUD of it 🤣 he's probably mortified!

Ugh

I'm easily turned. I'd be disgusted if my husband text me or tried to discuss shit with me, absolutely off limits here

🤣🤣🤣💯

Mydogmylife · 16/05/2024 20:49

FawnFrenchieMum · 16/05/2024 20:04

I think I’d give him some sympathy to start with and then when he’s feeling better take the micky a little bit.

Get rid of him …you will picture this forever now every time your intimate too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just hope none of the posters that are horrified ever end up with an illness that causes these sorts of problems. Imagine if you needed a colostomy bag, I'd expect your husbands would run for the hills 🤢🙄

@Janiie Adults don’t tend to shit themselves at work randomly unless they’re ill or have some sort of undiagnosed bowel disease anyway, for a start. I think you need to broaden your mind a bit to be honest.

100% this!

I take it if you’re sick tomorrow you won’t tell him anything…?

JiraffDeSaki · 16/05/2024 20:47

Good God, if I couldn't text my own husband that I felt so awful I shit myself, so we could both have a good laugh about it later when I felt better, life would be pretty unbearable. He particularly laughed the time it happened to me whilst queuing in the bank, but the time I was laying on the floor of the bathroom with norovirus he was sympathetic.

What makes it off-putting exactly? Everyone shits, and sometimes unpleasant things happen and we should be able to offload, seek comfort and then laugh in solidarity with our partner. The one we share a life with and operate as a team with? Its a bit childish to have an attack of the vapours. Oh mY GoD PoOP. 💩

Onelifeonly22 · 16/05/2024 20:45

The text I’d be ok with. But I get the ick when anyone says ‘funny tummy’ 🤮

😂😂 yes!

Nobody wants to know if you have shit yourself ffs you could just say I have an upset stomach or something nobody want to picture anyone shitting themselves ffs why why the fuck ….do you text your hubbys saying I just farted and followed through no so why the fuck does anyone need to know

Do you think that's the same?

Also, sorry for your shart.
