In hindsight, what gave you the ick? (Lighthearted)

[JorisBonson]

The other day I remembered that ex DH would turn the water r off halfway through showering, and for some reason this gave me a belated ick.
i
s trousers were always too short too.

Some of these are hilarious and some revolting 😁.

Saying "hey you" in a soppy voice ALL THE SODDING TIME.

Helping his dad commit tax fraud by taking all the receipts for anything like a dinner date or petrol.

Suggesting I put my B&H into a Marlboro Light pack because apparently B&H are a bit common.

I could go on and on. He was a good shag though.

One of my exes claimed to be very ecologically minded...translated as a bit of a shower dodger. He'd put his arm over my shoulder and I'd get the full on whiff effect, it was rank. He was a good looking, professional man that had an aversion to water and soap. That was a big ick. We lasted about 3 weeks.

My ex would often choke on steak. So he'd be at the kitchen sink coughing and trying to dislodge the food and between spitting in the sink and violent coughs tell me - it's ok, you carry on eating because I'd stopped because my food was threatening to come back too!

Called food yummy

After sex asked "did you enjoy that"

Couldn't drive

Ate with his head down, shovelling the food in, with wild eyes

Danced.

4 different men

Please tell me this is an ex. This is awful 🤮🤮🤮

I still don’t understand why someone would turn the water off halfway through showering. Surely if there’s no water coming out of the shower you’re not showering any more?

@Whichwhatnow URGH WHAT?! 🤮

this made me laugh out loud. 'Sowwy'. OH MY GOD 🤣

This has actually creased me up 😂😂😂

The bit about licking his snotty hand not so much.

Thanks for the chuckle 😃 some of these are really funny.
ExH used to cut his toenails in the living room and smell them while doing it. 🤢
Thinking that asking for "sexy time" is foreplay. Actively made my fanny dry up. There were many others, he's an ex for a reason.
One guy I was chatting to on OLD kept saying ooerr, I should have run then. Actually went on a date with him, he was irritating beyond belief. Longest date of my life.

I've got a life thanks. It doesn't involve baby talk, the ick and yucky great if you are 4 years old.

Which bit in particular? Trust me it gets worse 😬

Met a South American guy travelling who had a wide repertoire of offputting habits, like referring to himself constantly in the third person. The day he finally got the message that I was never going to be interested in him sexually he said with all seriousness ‘One day you will be very sorry you did not sleep with the Latin boy’.

That day has not yet arrived.

Oh, God, I laughed on the train this morning reading this and I'm laughing all over again on the way home. The "sowwy" bit. 😄

Jesus Christ. Thanks for the warning. That ick to a c.

People who say "the ick".

Ex partner would kiss me and put his cold hard tongue in my mouth. It was hard and not soft, moveable and warm. Shudder

exes that refused to do cunnilingus but expected and insisted me to fellate them. Huge turn off. Very selfish

His voice,his laugh and his small dick

He’s shorten everyone’s name even if the people didn’t refer to themselves by shortened versions. He’d shorten names for which there ARE NO SHORTENED VERSIONS! So for instance, Laura and Sarah would become Lor and Sair. Martin and Paul would become Mart and Por. He’d interrupt you mid sentence to talk about his job and tell the same stories over and over again. He said he actively liked networking.

Different person - pronounced hiatus not as hi-ay-tus but hi-ah-tus.

always wore a hoody and kept the fucking hood up indoors. We booked to go for a posh meal and he turned up in his fucking hoody! Instead of opening the blinds in the morning he’d sit there with his hood up in the dark like a gremlin

Ultimate mic drop there

you’ve wildly misunderstood what ‘the ick’ is but thanks for your contribution!

Met a guy at Uni. Having a bit of a kiss etc, suddenly looked at me very seriously and said “would you trust a condom?” I had no intention of having sex with him, and could only think trust it to do what? Finish my essay?

The next day he was walking towards where I lived. I was looking out the window. He had a long cream mac, tightly belted, ironed jeans and smart brown brogues. He was 18!! Shortest date in history, nice person though.

4thdegree, according to the OED it means to provoke feelings of disgust or distaste,so no don't think I have not understand the meaning.

What provokes this?
