To be sick of DP's poo crumbs?

My DP is very hairy. He leaves poo crumbs and hair on the seat every day and I'm sick of wiping it. This is way worse than the seat-up-or-down debate. I finally snapped after a year and told him he must start using wet wipes to avoid the poo crumb issue. I feel like I'm looking after a 2 year old in this regard.

It's been particularly bad in bed this summer as he sleeps naked so the crumbs go EVERYWHERE.

He says I have no right to interfere in his toilet routine and I say I'm not sexing someone who can't keep their poo crumbs under control.

His family are full of boys and he says the poo crumbs thing is normal and that I'm overreacting. AIBU?

EWWWW JESUS MOTHER OF GOD

So this post is from 2013. I wonder if they are still together?

jellycat1 · 22/08/2016 22:11

So effectively he shits in bed. Agree with ctc. Full on boak.

What fresh hell is this?

I've been around the block a few times, lived with men, had periods of my life where 95% of my friends were men and (if you must know!) have a fondness for the male backside in a sexual capacity and I have never, ever encountered shit on loo seats or "poo crumbs". How would they even get on the seat? How would shit stay on an arse (however hairy) long enough to form crumbs?

I refuse to accept I've just been freakishly lucky.

I'm laughing and confused and horrified all at once.

DelicatePreciousThing1 · 22/08/2016 22:14

Oh my god. What a revolting thread.

LuluJakey1 · 22/08/2016 22:15

littlemiss Is that the poo crumb equivalent of a penis beaker for bedside clean up? Yuck!

OP - he is disgusting. Show him the thread so he understands everyone in the world thinks he is disgusting. It is absolutely horrible. Minging. I showed DH this thread and he made vomitting noises too. He would not be in my house, bed, bathroom, kitchen or fanjo or touching food if he was in my life doing that. He is making you sleep in shit, never mind sleeping in it himself. He must smell! I certainly would not be within bargepole reach of him.

LTB. No other option.

WhatWouldHillaryDo · 22/08/2016 22:16

OP, I can't stop thinking about dirty fingernails and where he has put his fingers recently... Shock This reminds me a bit of "three wipes Colin" a friend of mine dated years ago when we were young and didn't know better. He would wipe his arse three times and that was it. He was very strict with his loo paper usage. I imagine he had poo crumbs at some point. Urgh.

If your chap is leaving crumbs, maybe his diet needs looking at? I'm pretty certain if he's eating well it shouldn't leave anything to create crumbs. Doesn't excuse his lack of caring and cleaning, though. Also, people with very large bottoms can find it more difficult to reach round...

This seemed fitting...

I am not sure that this ZOMBIE thread needed resurrecting.

PigletJohn · 22/08/2016 22:22

here

or, though I don't know of one that meets WRAS

HerdsOfWilderbeest · 22/08/2016 22:24

"Poo crumbs" sounds kind of cute and a childish scatterbrained thing.

The reality is some repulsive hairy arsed adult who is unable to clean faecal matter off himself and is happy to leave bits of turd in his shared bed and over the loo seat. It goes far beyond gross.

You should explain your post Grin how do you fond of a males backside in s sexual way come on share Grin

PigletJohn · 22/08/2016 22:37

Oops, didn't realise it was a zombie.

Zame · 22/08/2016 22:39

Why did 'unmumsy mum' decide to resurrect this thread somehow? Is this blogger the poo troll?

PigletJohn · 22/08/2016 22:41

It'll be in the Wail tomorrow. Sad face, please.

brambly · 22/08/2016 22:41

I may or may not quite enjoy investigating the area, giving prostate massages, etc.

Guess I'm just an arse woman. I would recommend it for those similarly inclined, but after reading this thread...! I did discuss it with some girlfriends recently and I don't appear to be (completely) alone!

The point being, I suppose, that even I have not encountered shitty sheets and poo all over the loo seat.

The thought of letting a man's undercarriage anywhere near mine when he was living in that state just doesn't bear thinking about.

Just got to the part of the thread with somebody talking about her DP'd "acrid bottom gravy" and I don't know whether my howls are laughter or horror at this point!!!

DaDman66 · 22/08/2016 22:43

God. Tell him to wipe the fucking seat the disgusting hairy bastard.

If he doesn't then start mixing it into his food.

brambly · 22/08/2016 22:46

The more I think about it, the more ludicrous it seems. Am not doubting the veracity of the claims, just astounded.

Even primary age children don't leave skidmarks in the bed. How is that there are grown men doing so? It just seems beyond belief.

Brandonstarkflakes · 22/08/2016 22:47

Omg the unmumsy mum was the poo troll all along!

Well thanks to this thread I am now over my Monday morning huff with DH (due to his taking the last milk when He knows I NEED my coffee first thing and showering in our only bathroom without turning the fan on leaving a hot sauna and misted up mirror) and am back to appreciating him if only because I've never had to worry about such awful toilet related nightmares.

Randomly I think this thread has solved an unpleasant mystery for me. A previous colleague of mine used to develop a noticeable nasty smell in the summertime (our office was very warm) and it was actually reminiscent of the smell of poo, but he never seemed to be in discomfort and it was faint so it wasn't as though he had crapped in his trousers kind of thing. He did wear the same trousers for days on end and clearly wasn't washing or dry cleaning them very often. We didn't know what to make of it and it took one of us bravely getting close and sniffing his office chair that had a fabric seat pad to identify him as the source. He was rather hirsute, so I guess he had a similar issue to OP's DP. The office chair was replaced when he left...

OP, sorry to be so blunt but can you smell a whiff of residual poo on him or his trousers? If you can then there's a chance others can too as my experience demonstrates.

Haven't we had this thread before? Has Poo-man swapped partners?

MillionToOneChances · 22/08/2016 22:54

It's been particularly bad in bed this summer as he sleeps naked so the crumbs go EVERYWHERE.

I've never actually boaked at the thread before but this whole thread did it for me. He needs to either sort the poo crumb issue at source or clean the toilet seat and wear pants in bed.

Sparklingbrook · 22/08/2016 22:56

Haven't we had this thread before?

Yes, 3 years ago when it was started. Grin

MillionToOneChances · 22/08/2016 22:57

Just scrolled back up from the end and see that the issue is resolved. Thank fuck for that!
