Help! I’ve just opened my husbands T-shirt drawer. I honestly nearly fell over in shock when I saw what he’d done in there.

He’s only gone and feckin Marie Kondoed his own T-shirt’s!!! What sort of a man does that?!

I’m speechless Shock Is this a form of mid life crisis? AIBU to find this disturbing?

I'd not marry him, but I'd make him a dinner of his choice if he'd come over and sort mine out (not a euphemism)

Ive saiid it would bother me a lot but im not sure when would have been a good time to tell you. It would have been down right freaky very early on and then it starts becoming too late....

Janethevirgo · 12/02/2019 20:57

LTB, he’s clearly having an affair with Marie Kondo

Bestseller · 12/02/2019 20:57

Wrong thread, Sorry!

EVERYbody's t shirts are hung up in this house. They get creased in the drawers, whether they are folded marie kondo style or not.

Excuse me for ignorance. What is a MK method? I looked her up and didn't find the answers. I've been drinking Is hers a special way of tidying? Is your husband available to train my DP - who is actually very tidy but would probably welcome tips! Smile

@Bestseller damn I thought you were the only person to agree with me that it’s a bit freaky!

Apparently if you MK your T-shirt’s they don’t get so creasy.

@Pietari I’ll pass on your invitation to him. My cooking is almost as crap as my tidying skills so he might be up for it Wink

DH hangs t-shirts. It’s pretty much all he wears and we don’t have enough drawer space.

He also used to do that rolly towel thing. But I cured him of that ridiculous habit!

WTFIsAGleepglorp · 12/02/2019 21:22

The Marie Kondo Method or KonMari Method.

A Japanese lifestyle guru who believes less is more.

PeterPiperPickedWrong · 12/02/2019 21:24

We hang all our t shirts up, they crease otherwise Confused

They look really scrumpled the way he’s put them in the drawer, does he iron them before he puts them on?

WinterfellWench · 12/02/2019 21:26

Marie Kondo my arse. I have been stacking shit like this since forever.

anniehm · 12/02/2019 21:29

He's welcome to sort out ours (actually we hang ours up)

FlippinNora1 · 12/02/2019 21:31

No, he doesn’t look crumpled. But he didn’t before when they were just folded normally.

@Yabbers I need to cure him of it too. I have this urge to open his drawers and have a good rumple Grin

Can anyone who is incredulous that anyone would hang up t-shirts explain why? To me it's natural to put them on hangers in the wardrobe, so why is that wrong, in your opinion? Confused

Ilove · 12/02/2019 21:39

Who the hell wers pyjamas???

Naked all the way here!!!

Monday55 · 12/02/2019 21:39

I'm well Jel

DH folds t-shirts on a shelf like we live at Benetton. I hang mine and dd's if there are enough spare hangers after hanging dresses and blouses. I hang my knitwear too- I used to keep my jumpers folded in a drawer but found they got creased and never worn.

Jjacobb · 12/02/2019 21:46

I hang t shirts, don't they get creased in a drawer? Only pants, socks and pjs go in drawers, everything else gets hung up.

Op he's a keeper.

M0reGinPlease · 12/02/2019 21:50

AIBU to find this disturbing?

AIBU to find this seriously attractive?!

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 12/02/2019 21:50

The title made me immediately think he'd had a surprise Prince Albert or something...

fashiondevotee · 12/02/2019 21:55

I hang up T-shirts... Is this weird??? Confused

WoollyMummoth · 12/02/2019 21:59

Drawers for undies and pjs.
Wardrobes for everything else.
That is the law.
(Well it is in my house!)
