To not want DM and SF to share a bath in my house?

[CharliesAngela]

My mum and my step father were visiting over the weekend, but staying elsewhere. One evening there was just me at home. Mum asks if I mind if they have a bath, as the place they are staying only has showers. I say no of course, and direct step father upstairs, as mum is kindly washing up for me. I go outside to get the washing in and they've both vanished when I come back in. I take the washing upstairs to put it away to hear talking coming from the bathroom, and basically they've gone off to have a bath together.

They've been married about 6 years, so he's definitely not a father to me. I was totally freaked out and quite cross that they did this in my house with me alone there (we actually have 2 baths in separate rooms so they could have had one each!).

Go on, do your worst, AIBU to find this all really icky?

For the record, I did not say anything at all about it, I went downstairs and watched TV with the door shut.

My parents use the bath sometimes when they come here. They don't have a bath, they like the opportunity.

Chipping, they aren't to know that she's uncomfortable about them sharing a bath unless she mentions it. As you can see from this thread many people are just fine with it to the point of not understanding the fuss at all. So if the op didn't say anything then they aren't to know. It's not forcing somebody to face a sexual relationship. I don't share a bath with dh to further our sexual relations. I just share a bath with dh. It's normal to me. Obviously to some people it isn't. But you only know all this if you speak up.

Actually I don't think yabu.

1. because it's your house and yes to me a bath together is intimate or all the baths/showers I shared with ex-dp have been. Even without sex touching each other naked is intimate iyswim. nice though!

1. It sounds like your mum needs to be aware its a big adjustment for you - you do have to be adult and accept it and deal with it - but it's still at lot to have it shoved under your nose. Playing footsie under the table is something I do at home - not at my parents.

Well, my parents, married for 43 years, have only had sex twice (me and DSIS), and any further information to the contrary (Viagra needed because of blood pressure pills) is yuk!

Obviously I can shag DP on my parents' living room carpet and that
is fine
