Oh nooooo, I think I have the ick

Name changed for this.

I’ve been seeing someone for just over 3 years - we both have dc and so fit our relationship around them, we don’t live together or anything. We see each other probably three times a week.

He can be quite intense, definitely sweats the small stuff (I suspect undiagnosed ASD for this and some other reasons) and can get overwhelmed in certain situations. He also doesn’t deal well with pain, hunger, being too hot etc. He’s extremely sensitive I guess but he does have some very good points too.

However he also gets fairly obsessed with symptoms / bodily functions when ill. Previously I’ve heard in detail about stomach upsets, colds etc.
Recently he’s had a thrush infection on his penis and this time I’ve heard about discharge / consistency and smell. It makes me 🤮
I actually now can’t imagine having sex with him again.

I think I have the major ick. Is there any way back? Honestly, I think it’s ok to share health stuff with your nearest and dearest but I think there’s a line of overshare and we have crossed it!

It sounds like this is just adding to the pile of reasons to end it.

Once you have the ick, there is no going back.

I think you know the answer @Grossedouttophat there is no way you will ever find him sexually appealing after this is there and what if the next thing is worse 🤢

Yes, exactly. He’s a hypochondriac over-sharer who ‘doesn’t deal well’ with normal bodily stuff like being hungry or cold.

MeMyCatsAndI · 30/09/2024 07:22

🤮 nope, there's no going back after that. He sounds like a massive hypochondriac too.

Time to move on.

Ah yes I’d feel that way; I’ve been with DH 10 years and I’d shut him down if he gave me that much information
