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?

Anyone leaving "evidence" on a towel is a disrespectful pig, it's not acceptable and beyond disgusting.

In my house, no one uses other people's towel, it's just rude.

He does the same with his own towel. I don't do his washing anymore. And there is certainly no sex.

There’s clearly bigger problems here than just the towel.

Perhaps his mum was busy and couldn't come and wipe his arse so he used your towel in his desperation.

Notwhatyouwanttohear · 24/10/2023 11:19

What the hell.

Absolute filth.

Have you not told him he is worse than an animal if he has previous for leaving shit on towels.

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

yep, this!! ^

@StoneColdAlibi literal shit.

Why the fuck is there shit on him if he’s just got out of the shower (why else would he be using a towel??)?? Rancid.

OhComeOnFFS · 24/10/2023 11:25

Can you tell us why you're with this man?

Meeting · 24/10/2023 11:27

Do people actually have designated towels? We just grab one before we go in the shower and put it in the washing basket after. I would find it really annoying to have to use a specific towel.

This !

Could you buy him some toilet paper?

And this.

@StoneColdAlibi literal shit.

I'm heaving for you 😂

Bumcake · 24/10/2023 11:28

Sounds like he’s asserting dominance. I recommend pissing in his sock drawer.

SomeCatFromJapan · 24/10/2023 11:29

How does he have shit on himself AFTER a shower ffs?!

😂How hard can it be to use your own towel? Do you share toothbrushes too?

well, that's a reason why my towels don't need to be washed after one use for a start, we know how to clean ourselves and our own towel is more likely dry by the time we have our next shower.

Why are you still together if you can't stand him?

ScruffMuffin · 24/10/2023 11:32

Sharing a towel isn't a crime in this house, but leaving shit on one certainly would be. I'm baffled that he's got to adulthood without learning how to clean himself properly. Surely most people manage that at a young age?

I mean, I was slightly concerned that one of my kids might not be able to wipe her bum properly by the time she started school, but she just about got there in time. She'd only just turned 4 when she started Reception. If a slightly immature 4 year old can be taught, your 'D'H can sure as heck learn!! Just gross.

LusaBatoosa · 24/10/2023 11:32

Is this one of those weird poo troll threads? If so, what is wrong with you?

On the off chance that it’s not, why are you married to a man that somehow gets faeces on bath towels? And why is this post bemoaning the fact that he used your new towel, as opposed to that considerably more serious issue? Seriously, wtf?!

littleripper · 24/10/2023 11:33

OMFG

Lilibert456 · 24/10/2023 11:33

He can use an to towel he wants but if he left a skiddy on any one time f them he would be in real trouble. What grown man doesn't wash his bum properly. Yuk what a turn off.

Wonkasworld · 24/10/2023 11:33

Bet he's got skiddy underpants as well 😫

MadeOfAllWork · 24/10/2023 11:34

What do you get out of this relationship?

Lavenderosa · 24/10/2023 11:34

Buy him some shit-coloured towels for his own exclusive use.

SoRainbowRhythms · 24/10/2023 11:34

I could not be married to a man who couldn't clean his own arse properly.

HelloItsMeHowAreYou · 24/10/2023 11:34

This is where whatsapp is so good if you are on any family chats with him. Take a picture of the shitty towel and post it on there, OBVIOUSLY meaning to send it straight to him... asking "If you cant be bothered to use toilet roll, can you not use your own towel to wipe yourself?"

Wonkasworld · 24/10/2023 11:35

You will never be able to look at that pink fluffy towel, with fondness again.
