"Mind popping that pimple on my bum hun?"

[NinaJane]

Does anybody else do odd little things for their DHs/DPs?

Here is a list of the things I often do for my DH:

• I cut the fingernails on his right hand (he is right handed and cannot cut properly with his left hand).

• I cut his toenails for him.

• I trim his nose hair, ear fluff, eyebrows and any other stray hairs on his body.

• I squeeze a recurring blackhead on his bum (he cannot reach this spot).

• I scrub all the dead skin off his body, once a month (while he is in the bath - he normally showers).

• he gets a heat rash every now and again, either in his armpits or groin...I wash it down, then put baby bum cream and powder on it.

Is this weird or normal?

the baby bum cream and powder is quite weird!

I like grooming DH but he only lets me if I shag him first!

Heat rash treatment - fair enough. I scrub Dh from time to time when I run him a bath to pamper him a little. The rest is weird! Actually read back over where he gets the heat rash, surely he can reach that himself??

I do give DH facials when he allows me though...

Neither weird nor normal.

I wouldn't do it but dh would do it for me.

Eww boak at OP.
No I let him take care of his own personal hygiene he's an adult!

We squeeze spots on each others backs

Hell no! He's big and hairy enough to squeeze his own dirty spots, ew!!

The odd time I might get hold of a stray hair on his eyebrow and yank it off before he protests, but he wouldn't willingly let me groom him

Besides, I spend enough time grooming myself for the both of us

it all sounds quite weird, sorry

ewwwww

Oh come on! I can't be the only one doing these things...can I?

yes, you are the only one

you remind me of a monkey who sits picking fleas of her neighbouring monkey, and eating them

haven't you got anything better to do ????

So how did your dh manage before you came along?

Did the nails on his right hand resemble those of Wolverine? Was he on his death bed suffering from terminal blackheads and heat rash?

Sorry but it sounds very weird.

it smacks of subservience to me

sorry to rain on your parade

Ewww! That list has put me right off my dinner!

boak

AF, I think you are digging a bit too deep here. I don't mind doing these things for my DH...he does a lot of stuff for me too. The reason I asked is because I noticed that my RL friends think it is a bit weird and I was interested to know if you guys ever did stuff like this.

NJ...your RL friends are right

I am not "digging"...I am giving you my opinion...you asked if it was normal, I say no

did you think you would get a different response here ?

Does he do the same for you?

Is he asking or are you taking over and doing it for him?

It all makes me feel nauseous.

AF, well..yes! I was hoping you guys would share the odd things you do for your DHs...OK, so it's official...it's weird - thanks.

NJ, seriously, I would rather have a glass of wine and read a good book

Love squeezing spots, mine or DPs . If DP asked me to do stuff, I'd be happy to. I've offered to give him a facial with scrubs and hot cloths etc as he has shaving bumps but we never get round to it. He brings me endless cups of tea so its swings and roundabouts if your DP he does little things for you too.

Thank you cerealqueen...he does do a lot of stuff for me too.

ah..we are but apes. AFucker - it's called mutual grooming.

in actual fact, the receiver of the attention is not neceessarily the more dominant ape. Allowing oneself to be groomed = submissive behaviour.

Hmm let's see: Dress up as an alien and give him a rectal probe
Flip the top of his head open and have a good rummage with his screwdriver
Walk in front of him waving a red flag and tolling a bell and shouting 'Beware! Abase yourself in the Presence of He Who Snuffles!'
