Stray Pubes

I cannot believe I'm asking for opinions on this....

Over the last few months I've found the odd lone pube in the bathroom sink. They're not mine. I suspect DP because he's the only one in the house with the ability to shed such bodily hairs!

It's only ever one, and it's happened about 5 times over the course of around 8 weeks.

Never in the history of over a decade have I found his pubes in the bathroom sink!

Why now?

Yes, I feel suspicious. Am I paranoid, much?

Our sex life is nonexistent but I'm not after advice about this.

I would say he's having a bit of "me time" now and again..

Robertsmithsnan · 26/11/2025 06:34

Chest hair, shaking a towel?

SomewhatAnnoyed · 26/11/2025 06:35

What time of day are you finding them? It sounds like he’s either washing in the sink or wanking in the sink. Maybe the toilet then washing it/ his hands after. Would you ask him?

Thewitchishome · 26/11/2025 06:37

@Hackman

I suppose the bathroom is the only place he can get some 'alone time.'

Definitely from the nether regions!

I'm not asking. I've been keeping tabs on the sink to see if there is a pattern before giving up this intel!

It's in the mornings. He goes to work super early. This is why I'm feeling edgy.

I suppose it could just be a peaceful release before the chaos of the day starts....

id assume he’s washing his cock over the sink - don’t really understand what the issue is??

Prelim · 26/11/2025 07:09

What are you concerned about? That he’s plucking them and leaving them in the sink? That he’s having a pit/genitals wash at the sink? Hairs can get everywhere. My head hair moults so much it’s ended up in my husband’s boxers! Not to mention all the random chest hairs from him in random places.

I’m really confused to what you are on edge about. Is it because he doesn’t do his share of the cleaning?

I assume the same, but why is he washing his cock over the sink?

Maybe he's just progressed from shower wanks to sink ones. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Or maybe he's washing his cock before work because he's using it that day. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Or maybe he's washing his cock because he has a normal standard of personal hygiene 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yep, been alive long enough to know hairs get everywhere.

Maybe he's getting older and his pubes are shedding more. Idk.

I feel suspicious because it's always in the mornings I find them. He's had a shower the previous evening. He goes to work very early. I feel he's going to work earlier than he needs to. I suppose I think he might be up to no good.

This seems quite a leap.
Do you have any other reasons to suspect he is up to no good?

Yennefer17 · 26/11/2025 07:30

Well if your sex life is non existent and you are not asking advice about that, what do you care?

didntlikeanyofthesuggestions · 26/11/2025 07:32

I insist DH leaves home in the morning with a filthy cock so I know he will stay faithful.

HelpMeGetThrough · 26/11/2025 07:33

Penis Basin.

Notmyreality · 26/11/2025 07:35

Obviously he’s having an affair. There’s no other explanation.

AwakeNotThruChoice · 26/11/2025 07:37

So what if he’s having a wank in the mornings.

NerrSnerr · 26/11/2025 07:39

I don’t understand why a pube in the sink means he’s up to no good? What’s the link?

NormasArse · 26/11/2025 07:43

My nethers have got a bit stinkier as I’ve aged. If I showered in the evening, I’d need to freshen them up in the morning before I got dressed…

But you say he’s going to work earlier than needed?

No, other than feeling he doesn't need to go to work as early as he does. He's not on Flexi time. He says he likes to get a head start.

He doesn't hide his phone or take it everywhere with him. Not that it would matter because it's password protected.

More recently his mood has changed. He appears a little depressed maybe. Say's he doesn't enjoy his job. Plausible even though it's so much better than his last.

I can't put my finger on it. I Keep waking early to check the time and whether he's gone to work. Just a feeling I can't shake.

This!

lt sounds as if you have bigger things that need sorting out!

Nellodee · 26/11/2025 07:49

Has he recently started trimming his pubes? If so, up to no good. If not, I wouldn’t worry. If you never get chance to take a peek, that’s another story altogether.

It did cross my mind that it might be an age thing.

In my opinion yes. His role involves communicating. He says he wants to get ahead of the day but it feels too early. Say h wants to be at his destination for 8am. He's leaving for work between 5 and 5:30 to get to work which is where his vehicle is kept. And then travels to wherever he needs to be. I'd say an hour, hour and half or so travel time needed to get to his destination.

Maybe age is taking its toll on me and I'm just being paranoid.

😂 definitely full length ones! I probably am just being a bit paranoid!

OP posts:
Seaoftroubles · 26/11/2025 08:01

I'm guessing if he has a shower the night before this is just a morning 'top and tail' wash to freshen up before his goes to work. It doesn't sound suspicious unless there are other indications that are causing you concern.
