So, DH hasn't had a bath in 5 years...

Would put this in AIBU, but I know I'm not BU

He cannot understand why I think it's utterly that he hasn't had a bath or shower in 5 years. He thinks a good wash suffices I don't think it does!

How on Earth can I convince him? I shower once a day, and like to bathe the DD's at least every other day. How often do your DP/H's have a bath/shower?

Lol Kew. Yes I do see what you mean. Think I should have put 'occasionally' in there somewhere.

I suppose I just think it's plain weird not to hop in the shower if you can (which he can) instead of tarting about having a wash.

Just wanted to gauge opnions on how odd/not it is really

DH showers daily. Will occasionally miss a day and will occasionally have two in one day.

This thread is very funny!

My dp goes days without bathing or showering and I can't remember the last time he brushed his teeth. But its ok cos we sleep in separate rooms!!!

That is revolting. How can anyone not shower or bath every day at least once.

Boak.

Custardo - am veering towards thinking 'dirty bastard' too

Jazzicatz - lol. Glad he's not the only soapdodger

Yes, but Misdee, Peter had a damn good reason!

Seriously - that is grounds for divorce. Unreasonable behaviour.

one of the patients did divise a way of showering with the LVAD but it was risky. and not soemthing recommended.

Does he at least wash his bits in the sink? Else I wouldnt go down there!

Report
misdee · 09/09/2008 16:04

but soem people dont like water. if he is washing well and doesnt smell, then i wouldnt haev a problem.

but if he was lacking in personal hygiene completely then i would insist on him showering twice weekly minimum, and if he refuased, soaking him with a cold hose at every oppertunity./

I had an ex once who was a soapdodger, he did smell, not of bo or anything, just had a stale smell about him, maybe your dh does smell but your so used to it you dont notice anymore

Divvy - that's what I find a bit the thought of him washing his bits in the sink!

That's a bit strong Dropdeadfred?

You think so....someone who has no medical reason for uncleanliness shows so little respect for you and himself that he cannot even bother to be clean...

I would NOT be with someone like that...no way ...
