I have a lodger who is 15 years younger than me and we work together occasionally. Really nice guy, we get on, have a laugh etc. He's out of work at the moment and has been helping out around the house to keep busy (I appreciate it, he doesn't have to). Anyway I came home to find that he'd done the clothes washing and dried it and folded it up....including my well worn period knickers which were on top of the pile folded up with dried in blood stains (could look like skiddys!!) to the male untrained eye. AIBU to hide in my bedroom until he goes out and change the locks? I think I've died a little inside! Please tell me this is survivable!?

OH GOD PLEASE DON’T DO A WINK WHILE TALKING ABOUT YOUR PERIOD PANTS. You will both die.

OP I feel your pain (and yes they’re normal blah blah 🙄🙄🙄 like you’re not allowed to be embarrassed about things and just free bleed around house guests to show you’re totally fine with everything) but I would go down the grown up route and neither of you ever mention it ever.

When I was 15 we had huge renovations done on our house and had a team of builders in for 3 months. They were great fun and we had lots of laughs. One day a couple of them were working in what had been my bedroom. I popped my head round the door to hand over my mum's tray of tea and biscuits just as one of the builders removed the radiator, and picked up a pair of my DIRTY black lace C&A pants which must have fallen down the back. I remember the awful teenage horror as he handed them to me pinched between two fingers. I die a bit thinking about it.

@user1473878824 that's not the grown up thing. It's just the very british thing. I say do it yes they might both die but it'll be funny. But ffs. Please don't "free bleed" whatever that is

I was sitting on the loo the other day when the window cleaner made an appearance at the window just when I was in mid flow. It was the longest wee ever. I sent my husband to pay him as he only lives 2 doors away.

Oh @emss55 that made me snigger, sorry!😂

In the end I didn't say anything....I fully intended to but he'd bought me a bottle of wine and was playing cards with my kids so I left it! Still dying inside though!! He's going away for a month today so hopefully it will be expunged from his memory when he gets back!
