Is this strange? I haven’t been at my partners house in 6 days but like 2 spare tooth brushes have appeared ?? There was always only 2 me and his now there’s another 2 spare ones right beside ours im thinkin whose are they 🤣 I said to him oh what ones mine again and he was like you can use the purple one I just have spare ones ? Surely if they were spare you would keep them away? Theres now 4 in total out but only he lives here. He just has a son that comes and stays once a week

I always end up with a few toothbrushes on the go 😂 If I go on a work trip, or on holiday, I take a new toothbrush. Then when I come back, it sits in a toiletry bag that I’m too unlazy to pack, and when they finally do get unpacked, I have 2-3 on the go at once.

My DP is the same. He has his regular toothbrush, then his gym toothbrush, and his travel toothbrush (he travels frequently for work), but they ultimately all end up in the pot at some point through the month when the gym bag or wash bag is also in the wash.

Does it sound like he has other people staying in his or anything??
