Splattered toilet bowl - how mad would you be?

So a couple of points first -

  1. I am not the poo troll
  1. This is semi tongue in cheek

Pre lockdown my bf inadvertently left my toilet bowl completely splattered. I mean, like, I’d never seen anything like this before other than in Trainspotting.

After I found it I sent a very polite txt (v unlike me I might add) pointing out that the bathrooms were all equipped with toilet cleaner, brushes and bathroom wipes and could he please clean up after himself in future. I didn’t want to embarrass him and make a big deal about it but clearly I needed to let him know. Thankfully my DCs weren’t home otherwise really they could have been traumatised.

He was apologetic and when asked wtf was going through his mind for him to have just left it he said “I just didn’t notice”. I asked him to please ‘just notice’ in future and it was left at that.

But tbh this is still kind of bugging me. Like, how can you possibly not notice?!!!! He managed to clean his arse with the wet wipes just fine, and managed to close the toilet lid. So how could he not notice??????

I really feel like I might never be able to have sex with him again.

Interested in how big a deal this would be to others.

@UncleFoster I really don’t want him to grovel or feel bad at all. And I was really worried he was proper ill. But I saw him right after he used it and he didn’t appear to be ill. It just doesn’t make much sense. But maybe because I’m the kind of person who always double checks what I’ve left behind and ask my DCs to do the same.

I shall dwell on it no further and hope it doesn’t happen again.

(Although really I still can’t bear to think about going below his waist rn)

That is disgusting. I would be traumatised if I found that, not sure why people find that so unbelievable. Thankfully neither me or DP do massive splattery shits. What the heck are people eating to have that come out of them?

😂
So sorry.

Lazy sod should clean up after himself.

Children traumatised by some poo? Really?

Oh my God imagine having a dodgy shit in someone else’s house, closing the lid before you flush (as you should do, so all the germs don’t go everywhere), forgetting to lift the lid again to check it was all clean, then getting a text about it afterwards to tell you off. I would DIE of embarrassment. And then to top it off you told him you don’t want to have sex with him anymore! I totally agree that it was rank you had to clean up his splattery shit (gross) but if it’s not a regular thing you HAVE to assume it was a genuine mistake. He must be absolutely mortified Blush

@peanutbutteryoghurt really? I mean its just shit.

Not particularly pleasant but equally not traumatising.

Have you never had a stomach bug? A bad period shit? Assuming you dont have chrohns/coeliac/ibs? Have you never been to a public toilet? Theres always a shit splattered toilet or two

Sparticuscaticus · 26/05/2020 20:55

Yup, it was gross and thoughtless.

Hopefully it was a one off oversight . We all have those on occasion, usually not this bad over toilet stuff. But people leave taps & baths on, oven on, dirty pants accidentally dropped on floor on (hopefully) rare occasion although they hadn't meant to and usually turn them off/ pick them up.

Best to put it out if your mind now.
He's in warning that seeing and cleaning up his splattered poo because he forgot to check and clean up, isn't conducive to keeping your sexual respect for him. But he's human and humans poo and humans occasionally forget something they normally do, he ought be more vigilant now, so hopefully you'll forgive him.

In relationships you see the person vomiting or with D&V and quite ill sometimes too, maybe even behaving like an arse in a mood or even occasional drunk too much, you see all sorts, so a poor memory that becomes hazy can be useful for these kinds of things in relationships if not repeated.

WizardOfAus · 26/05/2020 21:02

No respect. He’s shit all over your relationship.

Loving the Trainspotting reference.V retro.A great film too Grin

UncleFoster

Yes really. And it's not just shit, not that I need to see another adults shit, it's liquid splattery shit. It's disgusting. I've had bugs and bad period poos but 1. It's mine 2. I don't regularly look at my shit 3. I never destroyed a toilet bowl the way op describes that badly.

@Sparticuscaticus “poor memory that becomes hazy” best relationship advice EVER!!!

@PrincessHoneysuckle I thought so 😂
