To find it strange how my friend just dropped this into casual conversation?

[yellobella]

My friend phoned me this morning. She is married with two kids. We were speaking about what we got up to last night and she said, 'oh I didn't do much, we had a few drinks, watched a film then went up to bed and had sex'.

I was like oh right found it very strange that she just put that in there. It made me cringe as it was as if she was proud of the fact or bragging or something. Was really weird. Would anyone else cringe or find it strange at your friend saying this?

This! 😂😂😂

hmm i have had friends in the past who would casually say this ,so it wouldnt make me cringe too much , its a bit too much info really though at the end of the day

Depends on the friend. I can definitely think of a couple that would say this. But some others it would be out of character. It wouldn’t bother me though

Maybe they think their life is a Netflix show.

wouldn't bother me at all.

I think it’s hilarious that people are taking it as OP being prudish and THEIR friendships are soooo close & comfortable so of course they talk about sex allll the time.

I don’t think that’s OPs point. Sex in a long term relationship isn’t worth mentioning (unless as part of a funny/interesting) story. It’s presumed a couple are having fairly regular sex.

If someone asked me what I’d done yesterday I wouldn’t say “Nothing much. Had a shit & brushed my teeth. You?” It’s just a regular daily/weekly/whatever function of being alive & in a relationship. I would never mention it as something I’d “done” that day.

Nobody I know as a friend would ever say this in RL.

Anyone who did wouldn't be a friend for long, not because it would bother me, but I find it offputting and indiscreet. I certainly wouldn't be talking to them like that, so they'd find me very boring.

I'm a massive oversharer and even I wouldn't say that in an established relationship I assume it doesn't happen very often to make it worth mentioning because if it did it would literally be like announcing you brushed your teeth

@CallMeDaddy58 me and my friends talk about poo quite a lot tbh. Sometimes even we even take photos and send them to each other. I do realise I have a strange over sharing group of friends 😂

Yeah, it’s tmi! It’s like saying ‘I had an early night - read for a bit then masturbated.’ 😬

I would assume they didn't do it much that if she felt the need to mention it like that

If she doesn’t normally overshare I’d guess she didn’t mean to and it just slipped out. She probably sat cringing on the other end of the phone.

I had a new colleague take a liking to me, misunderstand our relationship entirely, treat me like one of her gal pals and… showed me photos of her boobs covered in love bites!! Shoved her phone in my face like ‘look how my night went with Dave!’ Jesus Christ. No!!!

Blimey, @Laiste

That's a whole new thread on its own - "my DH shares details of our sex life with his work mates".

😂😂😁

SILENCE

I have friends who would happily drop this in the convo, others who never would. No biggie.

Depends on the tone. Was any of it emphasised? If it was said flatly and matter of fact like, I’d find it odd.
