DH randomly masturbating

298 replies

Catladyy · 08/01/2023 18:16

DH decided to cook an early tea for us and DS at DS' tea time (5pm). I thought we should just feed DS, who was already hungry, but DH said he'd do it quickly. 45 mins later, I take an angry baby to the kitchen to find DH has barely started. Later he revealed he'd actually just spent the time masturbating.

It feels like a really odd thing to do with a hungry baby in the next room. If he was that desperate (and out sex life is slow, but not that slow), why he couldn't just let me feed DS and slope off upstairs? Isn't it a bit of a weird urge to indulge at 5pm? But DH say's he's apologised and if I bring it up again, I'm 'shaming' him, which I have no right to do.

AIBU?

Who has the time to take a 45 min long wank?

Surely he could have cracked one out in 5 mins whilst the pasta was boiling.

weird.

And yet tv and films have 'sex in the kitchen' scenes all the time..

There's usually not a hungry child crying in the background wanting their tea on those films, though.

Is this normal behaviour from him though, to just pull it out and start bashing one out randomly or is this completely out of the norm ? What prompted him to just do that when his intention was to make a meal .... maybe you cook in the future.

Personally, if that was my DH i would be extremely concerned as that is out of character and i would be asking questions, hes only saying your shaming him cause he clearly knows how messed up it is.

Did you catch him doing it or did he just casually tell you ?

Are you fucking kidding me?

Yuk

Misunderestimated · 08/01/2023 18:56

A lot of salty comments here. One can be self-satisfied without being smug.

CheesenCrackersmm · 08/01/2023 18:57

Delaying a hungry childs dinner 45 minutes by having a wank or for any non essential reason is not acceptable

Having a cheeky wank in his own time due to a slow sex life is acceptable.

Aftersevens · 08/01/2023 18:57

This has to be a wind up!
Nobody, surely, can be so desperate for a wank at 5pm that they leave a hungry baby waiting. 🤮

excelledyourself · 08/01/2023 18:57

Imagine not even having the brains to say 'oh I had a headache and fell asleep' or something, anything, other than admitting to having such little self control that you can't prioritise your kids dinner over having what ultimately sounds like a laborious and tedious toss to yourself

Munchyseeds2 · 08/01/2023 18:58

To right I'd be shaming him!!
Think it would be the end for me

DeFacto · 08/01/2023 18:58

Sexual urges can happen at the most peculiar times, often whilst the mind is wandering.

However, if you're a developed adult rather than a base creature, it's perfectly possible to put that thought aside and get on with one's day.

Surely uncontrollable mastabatory urges are the province of the desperately randy teen?

Rather unpleasant in an adult man.

🤣🤣 this man cannot be serious

rainbowstardrops · 08/01/2023 18:58

Hope he washed his hands 🤣

Aftersevens · 08/01/2023 18:59

laborious and tedious toss

🤣🤣🤣

BadNomad · 08/01/2023 18:59

Why did he tell you? Why did it take 45 minutes?

Mine too. Not once in 25 years? Pull the other one, mate.

They really should - better for the prostrate. Grin

You wouldn't watch 45 minutes' worth though if you were hungry.

Emmamoo89 · 08/01/2023 19:02

It's disgusting but wouldn't end a relationship over it.

x2boys · 08/01/2023 19:03

And your first thought was to share this on mumsnet🤔

StinkyWizzleteets · 08/01/2023 19:04

He was thinking of removing the wet hot dogs from the jar and sliding them into mustard and ketchup lubricated buns and just couldn’t help himself, could he OP?

this thread has made me laugh. I’m calling BS but thanks for the imagery😂😂😂
