To try and kid myself that they probably just thought this was hand sanitizer?

Had a few viewings of our house today, I stayed out of the way downstairs and let the agents show people round. All was well.

DH came home before and the first thing he said when he walked in the bedroom was 'Please tell me that hasn't been there all day?'.

He was referring to the bloody big bottle of lube sat in the middle of our bedside table which helpfully has a label stating LUBIDO in big black capital letters. I don't know how I missed it when tidying but I did.

AIBU to think in the current climate, they probably just thought it was hand sanitizer?!

Yes I know adults have sex. But the fact our agent probably saw it. I feel very awkward now speaking to them.

Picture of the bottle we have attached for reference.

If it wasn't for the name then I'd have assumed sanitiser

I'm sure they were far more interested in other aspects of the room / house.

Sarahplane · 12/10/2020 23:25

hahaha I probably would have thought it was hand sanitizer if I didn't look closely

lloe7 · 12/10/2020 23:26

I have that lube too.. but I use it for my hair Blush it's great for curls haha.
I'm sure they didn't pay all that much attention to what was on your bedside table, don't worry about it!

TakemedowntoPotatoCity · 12/10/2020 23:27

Er...no, sorry. The fact that it has the male and female symbols is a bit of a giveaway....as is the word lube in the title...and the 'intimate lubricant' bit further down....

Lisa78Lemon · 12/10/2020 23:28

I would have assumed sanitizer, especially as it was left out.
Don't worry OP, even if they realised it was lube, there are plenty of non-sexy uses for it such as being used for unblocking your dogs anal glands. That's genuinely what mine's for!

Wow I did not know that! I might give that a try. I'm WFH so I can afford to try out some new hair styles whilst I'm not being seen in public 😂 I'm guessing you use in wet hair?

Oh god the dreaded anal glands. The ugly side of pet ownership no one likes to talk about 😂

Let's hope if they thought it was sanitiser they didn't use it and wonder why it wasn't evaporating 🤣

Yes but you'd really have to be reading the bottle to notice that right?...RIGHT?!

I'm pleased to see it's paraben free, op! Grin

LunaMuffinTop · 12/10/2020 23:33

Haha 😂 I’m sorry OP but that’s brilliant. I’m sure they never noticed it though.

Mellonsprite · 12/10/2020 23:33

Ha ha, sorry OP the name and male & female symbols give it away.

Oh god yes, what if they thought I left it out for them! 😂

'There's something not quite right with this sanitizer...'

I had it worst, family came to visit and the lube was in the guest toilet where the soap should be (all unintentional, of course). They shyly asked for something else to wash their hands... Oops! Blush I cringe everytime I think about it

Unisex hand sanitizer???

As long as there were no "toys" beside it, you might have gotten away with it. (And just a reminder that it could have been so much worse! Grin)

henrykissingher · 12/10/2020 23:42

pretty much everyone has sex 🤷🏽‍♀️

Dare I ask what had been going on in the guest toilet prior to their visit?! Blush

God no. I'm safe on that front.

So long as no potential buyers checked out the back of our bathroom cabinet!

If I'd seen it I'd have wondered how the heck I'd got to my age without knowing you could get it in dispenser bottles rather than tubes.

I wouldn't have noticed or cared?

So you need lube. Whoopie-do, your sex life is still going on. If I'd seen viagra I'd have blanked that too. Likewise tampons if you're of menstruating age, or condoms, or whatever. I really don't think anyone gives a shit.
