To think that most reasonable people have more than 2baths a week?

[tartan19]

Our new house doesn't have a shower, we just have a bath. It's also on a water meter.

Dh has said he wants me to have a shower at the leisure centre, I do an exercise class Monday Thursdays. By Sunday I feel like stuff is growing on me.

AIBU to think this is ridiculous?

Most people want to bathe or shower every day. Isn't that the norm?

I find it weird that people were linking me to shower heads when I hadn't indicated I had an issue with having a bath - DH does.

I expect people reasonably thought this would be a compromise, particularly since you mentioned the lack of a shower in the original post. That way you would feel clean whilst your DH would be happier that you aren't using quite so much water.

I'm sorry op you're having a difficult time but you didn't actually say in your original post that you were having problems just that you had a disagreement about using the water.

Trust me people on mumsnet are usually very quick to shout leave the bastard but nothing in your first post would indicate that was necessary in this instance.

Boot him out And have as many baths as you like a week?.

What do you want from this thread, OP?

Is the lack of washing making you crabby op?

Sorry OP that you had beside-the-point responses. Seems completely obvious that no one's husband should lay down the law on when and how often they wash themselves. Totally unreasonable and controlling behaviour on his part. Is it part of a wider pattern where he tells you what to do and doesn't want you to make decisions for yourself?

Is he a tightwad?
