I didn't ACTUALLY realise this was a thing....... *TMI ALERT*

Things not good in relationship. Fine for long periods of time then hit a crisis point. Sore points are In Laws who hate me and DH's obsessional control over household money. Anyway...

Here is TMI so sorry in advance:

This morning whilst half asleep I could feel the bed shaking a bit. I realised that DH was actually masturbating. I pretended to still be asleep until it was over. OK not a big deal. I supposes he has the right to masturbate in his own bed... right?? Even though I would never masturbate in our bed with him right beside me. Would only do it in private. But anyway, it's not even about the masturbation per se.

What he DID do however was masturbate into a sock. I had no idea that was actually a THING?! I thought that was just a big media joke but it seems that this actually does exist? Not only that but he left the sock lying on the floor next to the bed. Now that it is much later in the day, he has put the sock into the washing basket. BUT I am the person in the house who does all the laundry.

I am quite frankly disgusted.
Am I wrong to feel disgusted about any of the above?
Either masturbating right beside me? Or the sock?
Or leaving it lying on the floor beside the bed?
I feel repulsed by all of it if I am honest.

Need other perspective/Viewpoints..... please. Thanks in advance.

Ps I do realise that a lot of people will read this and laugh. I know it has the potential to be really funny. If I was reading this as someone else's post I would probably find it really funny. But I do feel really upset about it.

Buy a box of Kleenex and say, "Can you not wank into your socks please? You're not a character in the Inbetweeners."

Or take the sock out of the basket and roll it into a ball with another sock and put in his drawer. See how ole "wanky toes" likes that. Grin

Noonelikesfruitcake · 10/06/2018 16:03

Sorry for being a bit tongue in cheek. It is a bit grim OP. Tell him he woke you up and not to do it again.

This. Or decide now is the time to stop doing all his washing.

I would take it out of the washing basket, pair it up and put it back in his drawer! Dirty sod hopefully wouldn't do it again!

ilovebutterflies · 10/06/2018 16:09

Oh OP reading it, I was laughing a bit, but actually in real life if this happened to me I’d be disgusted! Like why not go into the bathroom?
And to throw his spunky sock in the washing , knowing someone would unwittingly touch the sock?? Boke.

Also would

ilovebutterflies · 10/06/2018 16:10

Omg noonelikesfruitcake “WANKY TOES” 😂😂😂😂😂😂brilliant . OP defo do this

wagil · 10/06/2018 16:13

I didn't know about wank socks until I read it on here.

I've probably washed a few without realising, thankfully.

dramabeanqueen · 10/06/2018 16:21

This isn't my first post btw. I have posted quite a few times in the past. I changed my profile name today as this topic is quite sensitive to me. It is a genuine post sadly for me.

Teen boys = crispy socks in laundry. Well known. Or would you prefer 'snotty' tissues all over the floor?
Wanking next to sleeping wife? Not so nice.

"Wanky toes" 😂😂😂

TSSDNCOP · 10/06/2018 16:25

Yy to stop doing the washing, but thank you for a thread which has brought Wankytoes into the MN Lexicon of Ultimate Insults.

Genius.

Loonoon · 10/06/2018 16:26

Sock on floor - gross. Sock in laundry basket - fair enough.

Wanking next to sleeping partner - IMO that's fine. I've done it when DH was asleep and I wanted to relax or destress without disturbing him.

Aprilshouldhavebeenmyname · 10/06/2018 16:27

Sigh - I suspect this happens in my house.
Except its my ds and he is 16!!!

ThatsPoker · 10/06/2018 16:27

OP, you gotta face this head on. Just say to him 'if you're gonna have a wank, totally cool, but for gods sake leave the poor sock out of it, you're not 12 years old, use a tissue like any other bloke or do it in the shower'

hopefully he'll get the message.

Flicketyflack · 10/06/2018 16:29

Husband just read this post and said that he thinks its disgusting and ask him to wash the sock himself.
Grin

bopeepsheep · 10/06/2018 16:30

Feign ignorance. Ask what the hell is wrong with his feet and hold up the sock looking aghast. What him squirm.

dramabeanqueen · 10/06/2018 16:30

AIBU? Should I mention it or not?
I feel sick at the thought of mentioning it as things have been really awful this past week. We have 2 kids together so it's not quite a simple break up situation.

Stop doing his laundry.

Why?

CaptainCabinets · 10/06/2018 16:31

Wanky toes 😩😂😩😂

DP and I are very guilty of using the nearest sock to clean up after DTD hahaha

speakout · 10/06/2018 16:31

OP sorry this is no big deal.

Juells · 10/06/2018 16:31

My ex did this 😞 It had been months since we'd had sex, I asked him why he'd have wanked instead of having sex, he said it was because he didn't want to wake me. It was actually because he was having an affair, and obviously thinking about the OW. I thought we weren't have sex because we were getting on badly, but we weren't having sex because he was getting it elsewhere, and being an arse because he felt guilty.

TypingoftheDead · 10/06/2018 16:35

You're not unreasonable to feel disgusted by that - I would! I agree with PPs who say put it back in the drawer unwashed. If he does it again, stop doing his washing!
