I'll try and keep a long story short.
I woke up very grumpy this morning after a bad nights sleep. My DH occasionally has night terrors and last night he had one and it's terrifying, he screams with so much anger and it's hard to wake him from it. It's not the best way to start the day so, although I know rationally it's not his fault and he can't help it, I was snappy this morning at 6am. We went back to sleep but ended up all getting up later than usual.
Anyway so we all get up ready to do the school run. I have an interview today so DH is taking them to school. He has a habit of taking his time in the mornings, a nice long shower, 'drying off' in a towel. However we all got up a little later than usual so I was abit miffed that he went to have a shower 30 minutes before he and the kids were due to leave, leaving me to get them ready/make lunches/get packed ect. I got it done, and he's still in the shower 15 minutes later. I figured I would give him a scare and get him moving, and also apologise for snapping, so I unlocked the door quietly and after a moment or two I realised he was masturbating! I was furious. They had to leave in 15 minutes, he's gone and left me to do every thing, I've come to say sorry and he thinks it's an appropriate time to have a wank? (Btw don't have a problem with that although it did take me by surprise, in 10 years I've never caught him out and didn't really know how to react anyway)
So he's pissed off with me for still being angry with him, I'm pissed off that he's an inconsiderate prick. But I fear I've over reacted here. Would anyone else be annoyed?

*Yeah he probably gets off on the danger. I dread to think what the punishment would be if he's caught.

Can't get over that at all, not allowed to wank!!*

I'm very surprised so many here seem so concerned for DH's little urges!

If you must know he wears a chastity cage and I have the key. So I assure you he's not wanking or otherwise until I'm satisfied and all his domestic chores are complete Smile

I'm assuming that is a joke? Of course you can't know for sure he's not wanking. Unless you're with him 24/7 you can't possibly know that he doesn't.

Or are you just on the wind up?

KissedByFire · 06/12/2018 13:59

Of course you can't know for sure he's not wanking.

The chastity device is locked. Hence I have the key. We really don't need to be having this convo though lol

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 06/12/2018 14:00

Yeah yeah whatever. Thanks for the lolz.

gamerchick · 06/12/2018 14:01

Me brain is boggling why you thought it was necessary to talk about your fetish on this thread. Do you also announce this shit in the post office queue as well? Is it some sort of attention seeking behaviour?

What am I saying, of course it's attention seeking of some sort. Not cool man. Start your own thread about how you whip your bloke and go digging or whatever.

TenForward82 · 06/12/2018 14:01

So a sub-dom thing then. Yawn. Personally I'm not turned on by that sort of man but whatever floats your boat. Not relevant here, though.

gamerchick · 06/12/2018 14:01

*dogging

KissedByFire · 06/12/2018 14:02

@gamerchick Not a fetish, just a handy device. I only mentioned it because you criticised me and said it wasn't possible to regulate.

And no I don't whip anyone.

TenForward82 · 06/12/2018 14:03

Imagine explaining the chastity cage when changing at the gym.

TenForward82 · 06/12/2018 14:03

Who cares? You must realise that this is a very unusual situation and not in the least bit relevant to OP's thread. So obviously you're just attention seeking!

gamerchick · 06/12/2018 14:04

Trust me it's a fetish.

sweeneytoddsrazor · 06/12/2018 14:06

This thread is hysterical how the hell did it go from a morning wank in a shower to chastity cages ffs. Love it Grin

The latter is a solution to the former. Not for everyone I get that though. I wasn't advocating it, just clarified when others started hating on me for saying my DH didn't wank.

PermanentlyFrizzyHairBall · 06/12/2018 14:10

@KissedByFire No one's hating on your for your kinky sex life. No one cares. They just think it was massively attention seeking to derail a thread without irrelevant information about your kink.

skybluee · 06/12/2018 14:11

Kissing said it was a consensual arrangement willingly entered into by her partner (may have been his idea for all we know) so I don't have any issue with that. Very different from abuse if there is clear consent on both sides.

Boomah I just think it's sad you had an interview and he left you to deal with all of those jobs, didn't want to help with that, and instead of taking a quick shower then nipping out to help take the load off you, he set time aside for that. Would be the same in my opinion as if he was waxing his back or something in there - he should be out of the shower helping make things easy for you on an important day. Anyway glad the interview went well.

KissedByFire · 06/12/2018 14:12

@PermanentlyFrizzyHairBall I didn't try to derail the thread. My initial reply merely agreed that the OP was right to feel let down.

And what I admitted was more about preventing DH wanking and time wasting - nothing to do with 'kinky sex'.

TheDarkPassenger · 06/12/2018 14:15

DH knows full well he's not permitted to masturbate and any sexual relief he's permitted is entirely my decision.

I can almost guarantee you that you’ve just made his wanks feel a million times better knowing it’s forbidden

MatildaTheCat · 06/12/2018 14:16

Potentially, he may have a genuine problem here.

Your DH does have a problem; he’s a bit of a wanker.

HollowTalk · 06/12/2018 14:18

I don't think a chastity cage is necessarily the answer to your husband masturbating when you're all due to leave the house.

QuackPorridgeBacon · 06/12/2018 14:19

I'd also be furious that he was masturbating like some entitled little wanker. Just my personal standpoint, but DH knows full well he's not permitted to masturbate and any sexual relief he's permitted is entirely my decision.

Some people are crazy...

I’d be annoyed at the chosen time to masturbate but not the act itself. Night terrors are obviously not his fault but neither is getting stressed and snapping yours. The problem is definitely masturbating while he knows you are struggling and need his support. He could have skipped a shower that day, if he has them every day one day without wouldn’t kill him.

Boomah · 06/12/2018 14:19

My DH would never go for a chastity cage. The idea of him not being able to take it off until all the chores are done does sound amazing though tbf

OP posts:
sweeneytoddsrazor · 06/12/2018 14:20

@Boomah did he realise it all needed doing? You say its normally done the night before so could he genuinely have forgotten it all needed doing in the morning.

KissedByFire · 06/12/2018 14:24

It certainly made things at home a lot smoother for us! Nice to see him so enthusiastically do the cleaning! Grin

But I appreciate it's not for everyone. I don't think it should be dismissed as a fetish or shameful though like some have here.

Pachyderm1 · 06/12/2018 14:25

We really don't need to be having this convo though lol

Says the person who determinedly shoehorned a reference to their kink into a totally unrelated conversation... Biscuit
