Husbands Farting and What to Do

[CatchTheCulprit]

I have reached the end of my tether and find my Husband's farting repulsive. I have moaned and nagged and begged him to stop forcing one out as I find it revolting. He finds it funny. The state of his pants and shorts tell the tale and the other week he farted and followed through on the sofa. I know farting is a natural bodily function but FFS enough is enough. I don't know what to do to get through to him that this is just not on anymore.
Has he no respect? Is this the way he's been brought up or does he simply not care about my feelings? And don't ask me about cleaning the skid marks off the toilet every day. What the fuck do I do?

Any medication causing it? Not nice living with that. I be embarrassed if in the workplace. But not nice the person cleaning it up.

Rub your used pads/ tampons on him. Haa bloody haa

Does he not take responsibility for cleaning his shitty underpants then? If not, fuck me, he has no shame or manners.
I think the shitting himself is the issue as some farting is normal, but it could be indicative of a health issue. It’s not normal to follow through unless I’ll.

Sounds like he needs nappies. Revolting.

I’m flabbergasted that you think someone constantly shifting themselves and now a sofa is normal, albeit repulsive.

It’s not normal and indicates a medical issue. I would be concerned if someone had this issue and it would be investigated.

Buy a nappy bin for children in reusables (they seal in smells) then if you are doing everyone’s washing shove all of his clothes in it and never again do his washing.

Maybe when confronted with the smell of his own shit he will he stop.

He sounds disgusting. Why are you washing and cleaning up after him

Don’t wash his disgusting underwear! Chuck it in the bin, same thing with his clothes if he goes commando. No exceptions. If he complains tell him tough, he can either deal with his arse, his clothes or keep buying new because if you see something with shit on it it will be going in the bin. He’s not ill or incapable so you will not be cleaning up his shit.

That might help you in other areas too but possibly not. The toilet cleaning may be unavoidable but if he loses enough clothes your sofa might be safe again.

If he's been doing this for years like you say he has and you've been nagging him for years and nothing has changed then yo-yo have two options. You either put up with his repulsiveness for the rest of your life or you tell him you are going to end your marriage because the farting and skid marks are turning your stomach so much you no longer want to have sex with him.

It's that simple.

The ball is then very much in his court.

There's nothing else we can say really 🤷🏼‍♀️

Jesus OP that's foul, I wouldn't be having that at all! I have no idea why people find farting so hilarious; I'm of the opinion that when it comes to bodily functions that you do with your pants on (sneezing, coughing, hiccuping, burping, farting etc) then if it wouldn't be acceptable to do openly in a board meeting at work then I shouldn't do it at home in front of the people I love. It's disrespectful.

Clean the toilet pan with his toothbrush and refuse to wash his soiled clothes. He sounds disgusting!

Chuck his pants in the bin, he might stop if he's in danger of running out of pants.

You married him knowing he shits his pants and finds it funny?!

I wouldn't live with someone like this. No way. If that meant divorce then so be it.

@Glitteryone

I’m crying actual tears at this!!!!

Sorry OP I know it’s not funny for you.

Reading your comments about his mum and dad farting on your sofa too mid conversation, I suspect it’s just how he’s been brought up.

You need to tell him how it makes you feel and if he’s not willing to change you need to either put up with it or divorce him.

I'm genuinely puzzled that someone finds this funny. A grown man soiling himself .

OP, nothing much to add but I certainly wouldn't be cleaning up after him. I would find him repulsive, tbh.

Me too @CharityDingle.

Crying real tears? what the hell is so funny @Glitteryone? A man sharting, leaving poo on toilet seats and soiling his pants? Ha bloddy ha

I apologise OP I’d had a few drinks and it did sound a bit odd to post about this at that time on a Saturday night. It does sound horrible though, I couldn’t put up with it. It made me feel sick what you said about having to clean the loo. He isn’t showing you any respect I’m afraid. He would have to change or go if he was my DH.

Sex and laundry strike until he alters his behaviour.

I can't even.

I thought I was badly off. DH blows off (though not in front of the children).

Usually there’s no smell but occasionally there is. He says it hurts to keep it in and that when he’s at work or at a work dinner he’s often in agony until he can get to a toilet and release the trapped wind.

I think that’s a man thing, but it sounds like your DH has an extreme version of it. His behaviour around what is basically soiling himself is odd though.

Maybe he thinks it’s funny. I remember a lot of boys at school seemed to think that bodily functions were hilarious and loved to ask us (or rather shout at us in front of groups of their friends) if we were on our periods, if we had tampons in or if we were wearing a pad.

The other boys would all burst into howls of laughter. We girls just couldn’t understand it. They would also be making jokes about poo all the time. Maybe DH just hasn’t grown up?

Disgusting behaviour. When he did that on the sofa what did you do/say? Enough is enough now I'd say. Have you a spare room?

Omfg this can't be a real post?

It's all shits and giggles until someone giggles and.shits.

My hubby is cracking up when I read this thread to him

Dnt get any ideas I thought

Such a turn off when they pop!!

Reminds me of a fat lorry driver farting

Absolutely repulsive
