To think its disgusting that dh used my towel

Bought myself a new bath towel recently, a lovely pink fluffy thing, a treat just for me. Dh used it this morning, stuffed it into the wash basket, and went off on his way. So I took it out to get it straight in the washing machine only to find he'd really given himself a good scrub and left the evidence behind 😠Anger level 1-10?

LTB!!!!!!

What do you mean by 'evidence'?

Universalsnail · 24/10/2023 10:47

I think it's just a towel and just wash it? Unless you asked him not to use your new towel before hand?

Rosiem2808 · 24/10/2023 10:47

Did he know it was your bath towel OP?

Thesearmsofmine · 24/10/2023 10:47

What evidence? Does he not wash properly?

Tangled123 · 24/10/2023 10:48

Did he use it before you got a chance to?

By evidently do you mean shit or something? Because being that dirty after ‘washing’ would be a bigger issue for me than using the towel

stealthninjamum · 24/10/2023 10:51

That’s disgusting. How does anyone do that?

Tally00 · 24/10/2023 10:52

Could you buy him some toilet paper?

Was just about to say this. How can you have shit to scrub onto a towel if you're fresh from a shower. Ick!

StoneColdAlibi · 24/10/2023 10:53

Yeah the problem isn't using your towel per se, its that he can't wipe his arse and thinks a towel is a reasonable substitute. Grim.

SerenityNowInsanityLater · 24/10/2023 10:53

If he left his shit on ANY towel, I’d be ghost. That’s just nasty.

KombuchaKalling · 24/10/2023 10:53

🤮 l think you have bigger problems than the towel. Why can’t he wipe his bum? Why can’t he wash his bum?

Imamumgetmeoutofhere · 24/10/2023 10:54

IMO you are BU. To put it bluntly you have sex with this man. Why would using your towel, which you can wash, be an issue?

Thegirlfromredfern · 24/10/2023 10:54

Hmmm

Ifyoulikealotofchocolateonyourbiscuit · 24/10/2023 10:55

He left shit on your towel?! How is he not capable of cleaning himself? That’s disgusting

RoyalImpatience · 24/10/2023 10:56

Op I was going to berate you for being petty.

However with a man like that I Csnt see why you purchased a special towel and why you did not want him to use it.

AnaisMae · 24/10/2023 10:56

It wouldnt bother me that he's used my towel, it would bother me that he can't wipe his arse properly and had left shit on any towel. That's vile.

FrenchandSaunders · 24/10/2023 10:57

Did he shower? Why isn't he washing properly! So many questions OP ....

This could fall anywhere between, "You could at least have bought him a nice fluffy towel when you bought yourself one," and, "He's asserting his authority by shitting on your special towel, this is probably the tip of an iceberg of abuse, LTB."

EmmaDilemma5 · 24/10/2023 10:57

Does he not know how to wash himself? I'm guessing he used it after a shower? How disgusting!

10/10 for grossness.

It's these things that really affect relationships imo. How can you keep respect for a man who doesn't know how to wash his own arse?! 🤢
