Searching used thongs

Posting here for traffic and I know I'm not BU

On my partners Vinted account this morning (my phone was upstairs on charge)

When I opened it his last search was still on - used thongs.

I feel really weird about it.

Asked him why he's searching that. Says he was bored & curious !!?! Told him it was perverted. Why is he searching there, did he want to see pictures of them being worn? Message the women?? He says no just bored 🤷‍♀️

It's made me feel weird, he's apologised.

How would you feel? Nothing like this happened before?

In all honestly we don't often. Young children and had to move in with parents for a while.

I don't think that's an excuse though

This is creepy.

I don't know how I'd feel about this tbh.

What else is he hiding?

Edinvillian · 06/01/2024 11:36

That's the kind of thing I'd search for, just to see if people actually sell them 😂

I'm hoping this is what it is.

He is a useless liar and I can tell when he's lying but I suppose you never 100% know ?!

It’s a fetish, isn’t it? Depends if that’s a deal breaker for you or not.

Snap. If I hear about these things I have to go look for them. You'd also find dirty, worn smelly slippers amongst other things in my search history.

Sparklesocks · 06/01/2024 11:40

I don’t think you can even sell used underwear on vinted.

Yeah it didn't bring up much

He is either getting off on the search or buying them for his own wanking use.

Sorry to be blunt. Turn a blind eye if you want to, but that's what it is.

Redlarge · 06/01/2024 11:43

He could have been just curious. But I would feel a bit sick.

I was thinking this!

If someone confronted me about half my internet searches I genuinely wouldn't know what to say! 🤣🤣

No that's what you've decided it is.

Big difference.

Fannyfiggs · 06/01/2024 11:47

Hmmm, makes me wonder if there's a market out there for used granny knickers 🤔

As a PP said, I would probably search to see if people are selling them and for how much.

But then I'm a woman and have no interest in wearing someone else's smelly scants on my head while I have a wank.

Fannyfiggs · 06/01/2024 11:48

Oh and just to add, if he is looking for used thongs, tell him you'll sell yours to him at the going rate!!!

itsmyp4rty · 06/01/2024 11:49

It's a bit icky but it's probably just boredom like he said. TBF there are a million worse things he could be searching and looking at, I'd consider that pretty tame.

TempleOfBloom · 06/01/2024 11:49

LOL, how many of us have googled pervy stuff having read about it in MN? Just to see it people really do this shit? Looked at accounts selling used women’s shoes to fetishists and worse?

Or maybe he is assessing the market to make money from selling yours? Keep a sharp eye on your laundry basket!

Def wouldn't be buying them as I'd see it come out the the bank. Finances are low so there isn't an extra spending.

You seem to be very knowledgable on someone you don't know. Any other info? Tonight's lottery numbers perhaps?!

Thank you. The messages are making me feel better. I messaged straight after it happened & was feeling sick but calming down a bit now

Like a PP said I would have a lot of odd searches on my internet history if anyone was to look 👀

I get can search for weird shit without thinking it would ever be public knowledge

All the same made me feel weird seeing it

Have to say am tempted to search for it, for the same reason. Were there any being sold, OP? 🤣
