To be angry of DH fiddling on my side of the bed?

When I go out and he is having a me moment IYKWIM, he does it on my side of the bed because it’s further away from the window. Don’t ask how I know - I think most women know what happens in the house when they are out, it’s like CSI in our heads.

I don’t care that he does it as such, who does not - just not on my side. Close the blinds, pull the curtains, just get off my pillows.

No idea what that abbreviation stands for but from other posts it seems like you are referring to your husband wanking and leaving evidence in your bed? That is fucking revolting, sorry.

Read the thread! He hasn’t left any “evidence”. I agree that would be rank (a pps comment about “sperm on your pillow” made me gag!) but he hasn’t done that? Sheets have gone in the wash and the only “evidence” seems to be some misplaced pillows?

What a bloody weird thread.

MaleficentQueen · 12/04/2025 19:53

I don’t think I’ve ever really thought about where DP wanks. It doesn’t cross my mind, and it certainly doesn’t bother me. As long as he’s not spunking all over your pillow, and leaving you to clean it up, then what’s the problem? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh there is always, always more. It’s endless fun 😂

Indeed. The gift that keeps on giving 🙈🤣

I am howling at “wanking like a chimp”

OP get him a penis beaker

Reminds me of the wanking Barbary ape in Folly Farm, the dirty beggar licked his fingers afterwards. Too late, my niece aged 5 saw him and happily told people walking past "that monkey ate his willy" 😂

ChristmasCwtch · 12/04/2025 19:25

Your first post made it seem like he left sperm on your pillow… this would be revolting.

but the follow up post seems like he tidied up after himself, but you’re upset he doesn’t plump the pillows correctly??! 🤷🏼‍♀️ If that’s the case, you’re being ridiculous.

Huh? You mean men who wank? Don’t you masturbate? I thought everyone did

Edited

Don't you know you could go blind/develop hairy palms/be Satan's bride/be in a whole world of guilt and ssn. Forgive me father, I wanked myself senseless this Easter. Of course they don't.

Unless your bed is 10m wide, surely anyone that can see his side, can also see your side?? He should definitely be closing curtains lol - I'd worry more about an unsuspecting dog walker rounding a corner, to see him merrily bashing away, thinking your side of the bed has made him invisible!

FWIW though, I like having my own pillow too. Nice and clean, having only had my clean face on it, after I've washed it of an evening. Don't like the rest of the family mauling it and grubbing it up like they do everything else - surely I can have a measly 60cm × 40m of space TO MYSELF??

Unless she puts her face on dry clean only velvet cushionsI’m pretty sure these are decorative bed cushions

I think we’re being very hard on this guy. He’s wanking. Fine, people do. We all know that. He’s doing it on her side, for a practical reason, not weird fetish. Fine. He’s clearing up after himself, to the point that the only reason OP suspects is that the place is TOO tidy!!! Considerate of him. I mean, ok, if you find wanking a bit off putting, then ask him not to do it on your side… but why so angry…?

Consider putting up appropriate signage.

I can’t see what he’s doing wrong here? Messing up the pillow placement? I don’t get it…..

@Kukaracha I have absolutely no idea where some women find those disgusting men!!!

What? How is he disgusting for masturbating?

He’s not leaving evidence, aside from what sounds like a ruffled pillow.

Some threads on here make me glad to be a lesbian, albeit one who’s thoroughly confused by the ‘evidence’ 🤨

And I feel sad that I can’t remember the last time I had a good wank, fucking menopause 😔

SpringIsSpringing25 · 12/04/2025 18:56

I'm very confused about what the poor bloke is doing wrong.l??

i'm also very confused about the velvet and karate topping?! it sounded to me like the OP only 'dresses' her side of the bed, and uses the karate style chop to make the velvet cushions on her side sit 'just so'

I'm getting a funny picture through my head of her side of the bed being all 'dressed' and a mountain of cushions placed 'just so' well his side of the bed is all bleach start to linen hospital style 🤣🤣

Charlize43 · 12/04/2025 18:53

Have you thought of getting some of those pigeon spikes? They put them up and our workplace and they seem to be an excellent deterrent.

Alternatively, you could set up a concealed web cam aimed at your side of the bed and set up a pay to view website and make a bit of money on the side.

AcrossthePond55 · 12/04/2025 18:51

You know, I'd probably feel like 'just put a towel down, please'. But if DH ignored my request or if I ask him to use his side of the bed and he still does uses mine, no matter what reason he's given, then as far as I'm concerned it's either a passive aggressive move or he's doing it to show 'who's boss'. Either way it'd piss me off.

Yes, he should wash the sheets if there's any 'evidence'. But more importantly he is completely disregarding your very reasonable request. And that's disrespectful.

Lazy and disrespectful at best... At worst, purposeful soiling of your side for some malicious or misogynistic reason.

That you read so much into the post that didn’t happens suggests everything in you is primed to be repulsed by men’s sexuality. At no point has anyone said he’s cumming on anything.

🙌 WTF is wrong with so many people on here. I think they hate sex

There is quite a lot wrong with quite a lot of people on here. That’s why they are on here. Especially when it comes to sex. The people with healthy attitudes to sex and relationships generally tend not to be on here in the 1st place.

springbringshope · 12/04/2025 18:37

YYYDlilah · 12/04/2025 17:28

Do the same to his side of the bed

I strongly suspect the OP and some of the women on here don’t masturbate and fund the whole sec thing repulsive
