We have got TWO fucking bathrooms!

TheWizardOfOs · 28/05/2016 21:50

Main bathroom is used by me and DDs. En-suite mainly by H. Not exclusively. There is no law or family rule banning anyone from using any of the bathrooms.

We have TWO bathrooms. TWO.

So why in the name of all that is sane, reasonable, holy, unholy and right, does fucking stupid H just barge in to the fucking bedroom to use the en-suite one when I am in bed? Whether I am asleep or not.

WHY? Why would you do that?

He works stupid hours so is in bed at 8 on week nights. Perhaps I'll start banging in to the fucking bedroom loudly at 9 and use the fucking SECOND bathroom. Even if the first one isn't being used. Just because I can. And I am a stupid, thoughtless, uncaring, loud fucker.

He was being a cunt. He woke me up.

I am going to sleep now. I have settled alarm for 03.30 when I intend to loudly wake him up.
Followed by 04.30. 05.30. And again at 6.

Then it'll be you acting like a cunt. Sorry.

TheWizardOfOs · 28/05/2016 22:33

Then tomorrow I will calmly and reasonably request he never does it again.

That's cutting off your nose to spite your face. You need more targeted revenge.

DoinItFine · 28/05/2016 22:33

He was using the bathroom that only an inconsiderate cunt would choose.

There was a perfectly acceptable choice of facilities available to someone who wasn't a cunt.

TheWizardOfOs · 28/05/2016 22:34

And if he does I will calmly and reasonably eviscerate him. With a spoon.

CallMeDollFace · 28/05/2016 22:35

If he knows it is waking his dw, and their is an empty toilet next door, then I think he is being a dick tbh.

DoinItFine · 28/05/2016 22:35

So waking someone up deliberately is OK if you do it with a pisstaking or a shite but not an alarm clock?

Interesting.

CallMeDollFace · 28/05/2016 22:35

*there

TendonQueen · 28/05/2016 22:35

Have you ever actually said to him directly 'Don't ever use the en suite if I'm in bed. It disturbs me. Use the other bathroom, please'?
If you have, go right ahead. If not, tell him that tomorrow and then you have the 3am alarm plan all ready for tomorrow night if he does it again.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 28/05/2016 22:36

I'm not having this at all.

His en suite is his bathroom. Which he needs to use.

ladymariner · 28/05/2016 22:37

Are you venting, or is this how you actually speak to him in real life???

CallMeDollFace · 28/05/2016 22:38

^What Tendon said.

You haven't actually answered the question of whether you've ever mentioned this out loud to your dh, OP.

DoinItFine · 28/05/2016 22:41

His en suite is his bathroom. Which he needs to use.

I don't think he's a child with bathroom issues who can only go in one bathroom in the entire world.

I think a grown man who can only urinate or defecate in one toilet needs some serious help. He can't be living anything approaching a normal life.

sallyhasleftthebuilding · 28/05/2016 22:41

It has taken YEARS to get DH not to turn the main light in while I'm it DC are asleep - it's just RUDE!!!

Why should his need to use one particular bathroom trump sleep?

He shouldn't NEED to be told that's he's being an arse!

Raider · 28/05/2016 22:41

Meh. It's your own fault for having two fucking bathrooms.

SoThatHappened · 28/05/2016 22:42

why bed so bloody early for you too?

Before 10pm on a weekend and you're in bed? How old are you 9?

BlackeyedSusan · 28/05/2016 22:42

you will lose the high ground if you deliberately wake him up with the alarms. just model his behaviour and stomp through the bedroom when he is asleep... he may be the sort though that an earthquake would not wake... if he does complain.. look puzzled and say that you thought it was acceptable as this is what he does. ask if he thinks people use the other bathroom if the otherone is asleep.

in which case you are now too tired to do... [insert something he hoped you might do for his benefit]

SoThatHappened · 28/05/2016 22:43

Calling him a cunt for this and getting revenge?

You and your DH deserve each other IMO.

TheWizardOfOs · 28/05/2016 22:43

Of course I've asked him not to. Many many times.

This level of rage only comes after being ignored one time too many.

ExpandingRoundTheMiddle · 28/05/2016 22:43

If you've told him not to do it and told him why, YANBU.

If you haven't had the conversation, YADBFU and just plain silly.

CallMeDollFace · 28/05/2016 22:44

He probably shouldn't need to be told. But he's been doing this for 20 years apparently, so I think I'd mention it...

TheWizardOfOs · 28/05/2016 22:44

SoThatHappened. Some people have to work weekends. They have to get up early and go and be nice to people. Even if their sleep has been disturbed.
