DH and his long nails - ouch

13 replies

SexTopicNameChange · 22/08/2021 09:53

DH plays guitar (as a hobby, not a livelihood or anything). He's very good at it. However a couple of years ago he decided to grow the nails on his right hand to aid his playing. This he did, and they're very long and very sharp/hard/pointy. I think you can guess where I'm going with this 😬

It actually hurts when he uses his hands on me and I've had a few injuries (nothing major, just annoying scratches, though I worry about worse happening). I've told him that it's sometimes painful and asked him to cut his nails but he point blank refuses - guitar is his passion and to be fair I understand that. So we're at a stalemate.

Not sure why I'm posting really other than to ask whether I'm being unreasonable asking him to trim his nails - part of me thinks I am (guitar/his passion etc, and I don't feel I have the right to tell anyone what they should do with their nails/body). But at the same time I don't feel I am BU (it hurts/injuries/if he cared he'd cut them).

Also just venting because I miss the days when this wasn't an issue!

Think you need to talk to your dp. I'd be absolutely mortified if I caused any injury down there with poorly trimmed nails! Trimmed and clean is what my partner demands (Quite rightly) and she won't let me anywhere near with long nails! Simples...

Lots of lesbians have short nails for this reason. Can't he use a pick instead? I wouldn't let him near me with claws. Have a word, buy him some nice new picks, or a few toys to use on you instead?

Use his other hand on you?

Some guitarists use a kind of nail extension designed for this, maybe try, e.g. www.amazon.co.uk/AIEX-Adjustable-Plectrum-Stainless-Plastic/dp/B098NCG3R5/?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

Guitarists have short nails on their left hand. It helps their technique ...😂

Lesbians with active sex lives have short clean neat nails. There is your answer right there.

My DH plays guitar professionally and he's always kept his nails very short - trimmed with clippers and clean. In fact just hearing the sound of him clipping his nails can get me in the mood. Blush

I have a guitarist partner and his nails are short and clean, he uses a plectrum.

If he had long pointy nails that scratched my insides, his hands would be coming nowhere near any part of me.

I have, at times had long nails and my DH is a big fan of being fingered. When I’ve had sharp nails, I’ve always double gloved to ensure I don’t scratch him.

I appreciate anal is a bit different and, obviously your DH could just cut his nails but, if he refuses, using disposable gloves could be an option?

How horrible and inconsiderate of him.
He has a choice:he can pluck his guitar or you -but not both. Depends what matters to him more basically.

Viddy2021 · 04/10/2021 13:28

Yeah that's bullshit. Plus, long nails on men are gross. Buy a toy?

Sorry but that made me laugh the image of you putting two pairs of gloves on to finger your husband's arse 🤣

ReadyforTakeOff · 08/10/2021 16:22

Sorry, the OP's husband sounds very odd.

And double gloves or even some hard wearing gardening gloves works a treat. Just make sure you dust off any mud first as that can get lodged places.
