DH distant, watching a series with a ton of sex scenes

I am expecting so I don’t know whether my hormones are going crazy. DH is being distant lately and we’re barely communicating. He’s spending most evenings with me and toddler for a bit then goes in his car, and watches an episode of a TV series - Dexter and goes to sleep on the sofa. I looked the series up and saw it had loads of nudity, lots of boobs and sex scenes. Gorgeous women and I just feel rubbish now. AIBU?

Dexter isn't really a sex show! Honestly it's not, if that's what he's been watching I'd not be concerned in "that" way.

Why is he able to check out of evening life and sit in a car watching tv?

Jennyathemall · 29/12/2024 21:43

Dexter is none of the above.

ApolloandDaphne · 29/12/2024 21:45

Dexter is so not beautiful women and sex scenes! It's bloody brilliant though.

BilboBlaggin · 29/12/2024 21:45

Is there any chance he's using his escape to the car to call someone else, under the guise of watching tv? Why can't he watch it in the house?

Vettrianofan · 29/12/2024 21:45

🤣 you have nothing to worry about, seriously. Hardly any scenes like that in Dexter. Try Rome or Gladiator then you might be on the money 😂

EasyComfortDishes · 29/12/2024 21:46

i very much doubt he’s going to the car to watch Dexter.

That’ll make her feel better. Well done.

Never seen anything less erotic than Dexter. Weird that he's sitting watching it in the car though.

CrunchySnow · 29/12/2024 21:53

I wouldn't be worried about Dexter but it is totally bizarre that he is going to sit in the car all evening. Why??

JustPloddingOnBy · 29/12/2024 21:54

Dexter is all murder, very little sex and nudity really. I thought you were going to say he was watching something like Spartacus, which is all about sex with a bit of gore thrown in! But why is he watching Dexter in the car?

DaringLion · 29/12/2024 21:59

Why is he watching it in the car?

Dexter is about a serial killer

Biroclicker · 29/12/2024 22:01

Sitting in the car is very odd behaviour

Circumferences · 29/12/2024 22:01

I'd be far more concerned that my husband had left me on my own with our toddler, while pregnant, to go sit in the car for an evening. Nevermind what he's watching!

What a prick!

FeliznaviDogs · 29/12/2024 22:01

Dexter is not even vaguely erotic. Honestly - you should only worry if he starts to acquire plastic sheeting and new power tools.

Sorry - dark humour. It really is an excellent series though.

Talk to him and ask him what is going on.

Cherrypickled · 29/12/2024 22:03

Why is he sitting in his car? That's a bit odd.

Pebbles16 · 29/12/2024 22:05

Dexter is not your problem (serial killer, excellent programme etc), your husband is.
Please don't feel intimidated by a show that is not at all erotic, gather your strength for a conversation.

purpleblue2 · 29/12/2024 22:05

I think your bigger issue is the fact he goes fl his car to watch tv not what he is watching

DaringLion · 29/12/2024 22:06

Are you sure he’s not watching something else

Sugargliderwombat · 29/12/2024 22:06

He goes and sits in the car in the evening? Forget about the dexter part but oh my gosh that's not on.

Purgepossessions2025 · 29/12/2024 22:07

Dexter is far more twisted than the sex scenes!

He is acting weird.

If my DH went to sit in his car for hours that is where he would spend the night especially with a toddler to look after.

I don’t even know what to say it is a bizarre situation.

IkeaJesusChrist · 29/12/2024 22:08

Dexter does have boobs but not a lot, it has far more severed heads than boobs.

Why's he watching it in the car?

bryceQ · 29/12/2024 22:13

Ehhh Dexter is about a serial killer! Not loads of sex and boobs 😂
