Women’s trousers found in my bedroom - not mine?

Ok. Doesn’t look good.

But I am home everyday. Literally every day. Husband has worked from home most days for the past 18 months. Only recently started to go back to the office.

He had one business trip maybe a month ago.

Trousers are navy Lonsdale joggers. Definitely not mine.

Husband is offended I’ve asked him there they came from.

This is weird right? Is there only one logical explanation?

@ILoveShula

Your DH might be into cross-dressing
i'd be pretty pissed off if my DH could fit into size 10.

In shapeless joggers that look kind of like the ones men wear? I would hope the OP's husband would try to look more fabulous.
Chaotica · 03/11/2021 17:13

Damn it - They're mine! How did they get into your bedroom?

I look so hot in my lonsdale joggers.

RavingAnnie · 03/11/2021 17:15

@neededafart

They are awful joggers. Missed point spectacularly
That was my thought lol.
Mumwithbaggage · 03/11/2021 17:16

DH has cleared out wardrobes before after trips and chucked everything in his case, including a vile cushion from Istanbul! I'd say definitely the launderette.

@Mybalconyiscracking

Some woman was out jogging, ran in, shagged your DH and then ran out again, failing to take her trousers with her…
😂😂😂😂😂

Only on MN have I ever heard of stray clothing appearing mysteriously in other people's houses.

Last week it was knickers, but it was taken down.

The thread that is. While MN 'looked behind the scenes' Grin

OP I doubt you will never get to the bottom of this.

Unless it was a ghost who came into your house, how on earth could clothes appear when you are there all day?

Pheasantlysurprised · 03/11/2021 17:19

I would consider this: On our bedroom floor today. I was clearing out things (big clear out) so it’s possible they have come from an old
Pile. We did use a laundrette a while back (Feb time?!)

Before this pile of bilious misandry:
*Of course he’s offended… How very dare you question his integrity and show him up with evidence!!!
”If it walks like a duck, if it quacks like a duck, if it has feathers like a duck - it’s probably a duck.”

I would not advise anyone in the internet to accuse someone of an affair unless further discussion or issue arises. I wonder how we sold feel if our OH's were this quick to nail us.

Of course this shit happens, but I would prefer to actually hear how it progresses before shouting foul. But then this is MN ha.

ILoveShula · 03/11/2021 17:19

I'm sure I had a pair just like that...
Where did you say he went on that business trip?

itsallgoingpearshaped · 03/11/2021 17:20

Suspect it's the business trip ... perhaps sharing a room and they were 'accidentally' popped into his bag?

Pheasantlysurprised · 03/11/2021 17:21

Fuck this keyboard I will try that again!

ILoveShula · 03/11/2021 17:23

There is probably a simple explanation like the service wash or one of the kids brought them in

ShoppingBasket · 03/11/2021 17:26

There was a pair of boxers in our house for ages, DH adamant they weren't his. I was adamant they were. No one knew where they came from and I certainly wasn't doing the dirty with anyone. Now I'm thinking was he Grin

IncessantNameChanger · 03/11/2021 17:28

There was a stocking thread yesterday.

I think it's some stressed out mum leaving various washing in various houses to clear the backlog. Better than my idea of a skip, petrol and matches after half term.

I think it's pretty common to pop round for a afternoon shag and forget to put your trousers on afterwards. Kerp a look out for a slim woman walking around your street in her pants op.

TheChip · 03/11/2021 17:29

I can understand why your husband was offended though. The state of those joggers. He obviously has better taste.

Most likely explanation is a mix up in the laundrette.

I used to have a cat that brought in laundry including, on one occasion, a bra. I was in the garden when he came over the fence with it in his mouth. (I lobbed it back over the fence without being sure it actually came from that house, but I was too embarrassed to knock and ask.)

He also brought in a small teddy once, dressed in a sparkly Santa outfit. That went on the top of the Christmas tree for years.

There was knickers last week, then the other night it was a stocking.

Now there are some joggers.

Fully awaiting tomorrows

Found some women's over the knee fishing waders, not mine. What should I do? thread.

If you were going to "accidentally" pop something in your lovers bag so that his wife will find out about you, would Lonsdale joggers be your first choice?
HugeBowlofChips · 03/11/2021 17:31

The Other Woman was clearing wearing split crotch panties, probably red. She wore these as sensible cover on the bus. Whipped them off the moment she crossed the threshold.

No idea how she got home again. Taxi?

HugeBowlofChips · 03/11/2021 17:31

Clearly not clearint

ILoveShula · 03/11/2021 17:33

Hmm, you've got a choice of one item of clothing to get rid of... the nice pants that match the bra or pilly old joggers. No brainer if you ask me.

Whydidimarryhim · 03/11/2021 17:33

How can you tell they are women’s?
Am I missing something?

Silenceisgolden20 · 03/11/2021 17:36

Is this the same stocking poster??
Been a few posts like this recently

Does he, or you, go to a gym or play sport? They could be stuffed into a bag by mistake. My son brought home a random towel from the swimming pool once because he put it in his bag by mistake. Someone else put their football boots in the end pocket of his sports bag and we found them in their a few months later.
