We have a friend coming to stay today for a couple of nights. For logistical reasons too boring to go into, we'll be moving into a different bedroom and giving our guest the room we've been sleeping in. For even more boring logistical reasons, I changed our bedding yesterday.

When my DP discovered that I was planning to transfer the one-day-old bedding into the room we'll be sleeping in tonight, he asked why we couldn't just let our guest use those sheets. I squealed in horror and said no, that would be grim. He thinks I'm being too fussy and it's perfectly ok to offer a guest sheets that have been briefly, lightly slept in. Which of us is U?

Absolutely change the sheets. DSis is coming to stay on the weekend while DP is away and she'll likely crash in with me so that we can eat junk food and watch shit TV chat, but clean sheets are going on for her and me that night.

I will also be putting on a fresh set the next day for DP's return, but that's mostly because there'll probably be all manner of crumbs on the previous night's sheets from the junk-eating. Blush

Never ever ever listen to a man about sheets. They have totally different views about normal human decency sheets. They will never understand.

So true - I once refused to have sex with one of my boyfriends years ago until he replaced his sheets (preferably with white Egyptian cotton) but anything had to be better than what he had which were murky faded green nylon - bleurgh.
