DH has a huge blackhead which he's only just noticed. I've been itching to get my hands on it. However, having offered he said no!
How selfish is that? AIBU?

Never said it before - LTB! Now, before it;s too late and that blackhead disappears of it's own volition and you cave in!

That is gross. I don't understand people who enjoy spot popping

Leave it alone!! Putting hands on it to squeeze just spreads infection.

I thought EVERYONE knew that?!

Dollydowser · 15/12/2013 21:50

Can't you bribe him? If its a nice big blackhead, its definitely worth it!

LTB

He's had it about 2 weeks. I'd wash my hands and everything!

Wait 'til he's asleep...

Put some sleeping pills in his cocoa and then squeeze away!

Dollydowser · 15/12/2013 21:56

startwig, perhaps you're not being persuasive enough! How will you be able to sleep, knowing that it is only a short distance away, just desperate for a squeeze?

DH is so generous, he squeezed a spot on my back and then took a photo so we could enjoy the pus together.

I'm not sure I'd want to pop a pus filled one but a blackhead will come out like a little worm. Smile Who wouldn't want to see that apart from my DH

I'm one of them obsessive spot poppers Blush ..yes its wierd and gross bla bla...but if I spot a blackhead on OH I can't cope I need to squeeze it. Im a beauty therapist this must be why

Xfirefly · 15/12/2013 22:02

OH has learnt not to bother arguing. he's spot free and has lovely skin Grin just nag he'll give up and give in in the end

SPsWantsCliffInHerStocking · 15/12/2013 22:02

My mums a spot fiend. I think she is secretly ecstatic that my teen brother is very spotty lad

You can squeeze with cotton buds. That is v clean and does not spread infection, and allows super accurate squeezing. Definitely LTB!
