Do you share bath water? (Not together)

[justgeton]

I shower every morning and bath every evening so my bath would never be very dirty, and my husband often jumps in after me

However I would not DREAM of getting in his, despite his morning shower too.

Do you share?

Maybe this should be on AIBU but thought would keep it more light hearted

No. I very seldom have a bath. I prefer the quickness of a shower.

My grandparents did this. Like you, I would NEVER personally!

Yes! Otherwise it’s a waste of water and the gas to heat it up!

Yes if it doesnt look dirty and noones peed in it

Nope! Yuk

We have separate flannels .... Wouldnt dream of sharing the same water 😂

I wouldn't admit this in rl but yes we all are happy to share, kids and adults.

He gets in mine and the kids get in mine but I'd never get in after either of them haha 😄

Absolutely not, the idea is grim to me tho I can’t exactly say why if the water is cleanish.

My husband said he would use my toothbrush the other day, just no.

@branleuse but surely its still got their hair/sweat/dead skin/ traces of poo and wee/discharge/dandruff / moisteriser / deodorant/ anything off their body floating in it!

My ExH used to get in after me.

When I was a child, my mum would get in, then me, then my dad. Poor dad. We did have an immersion heater though, so had to make the most of the hot water.

Children yes, adults, no just no!

DP always gets in after me but I would never get in after him.

My dc are too old to share a bath, but the youngest has the first bath and the eldest gets in after.

Fuck no. And I broke up with a boyfriend years ago because he asked if I wanted a bath, then proceeded to tell me his flat mate had just finished so I could get in.

In fact.. sometimes dp gets it 3rd hand. I have one, then the kids jump in and he gets in after them.

Yep, we both love baths but are aware of the cost so habe bath nights where we use each other’s water

No but I'm not keen on baths really. Have been known to bath together in a previous life but always his instigating because as aforementioned I'm not keen on the whole sitting in your dirty water thing when there's a shower (I accept I miss the point)

Yes with my 8yo or mum when she visits, she jumps in after me

We share. However, we are both women, we both shower etc first and bath is just for laying in a bath and reading kindle, and taking it in turns to hide from the children!

Yes, we do far more intimate things than share water.

...but not after children!

Wouldn't put the kids in after adults either.

Yes, but only if I can get in first.

I rarely bath but when I do I can't imagine it would be as pleasant an experience if the bathwater is dirty.

So no, I wouldn't do that.

Eugh noooo. I love a hot bath so keep topping up all the time to keep warm anyway.

Ewww this is disgusting! Are you all living in the 1930s or something!?
