Woman shares 'gross' thing husband does in bed – and people say she should leave him – The Mirror
A woman has been urged to leave her husband after sharing the ‘gross’ thing he does in bed when she isn’t in the house – as some have said he ‘sounds like a nightmare’
We all do things that drive our partners up the wall, and if we're being honest, they have one or two bad habits that make us want to pull our hair out too. Whether they're avid nail-biters or they leave their dirty underwear on the bedroom floor instead of putting them in the wash, there's always at least one habit that frustrates their partner.
But one woman has said her husband's bad habit is a little more than annoying, as it's actually "gross and unpleasant". The woman said she "can't stand" the nasty practice her husband gets up to every time she's out of the house, and people have agreed with her so much that they've even called for her to dump him.
In a post on Mumsnet, she said: "I'm going mad thinking my husband has some absolutely gross and unpleasant habits and I can't stand it anymore but feeling like I'm supposed to remember no one is perfect. I've tried bringing these things up and talking to him nicely and also very firmly but I've got nowhere. I am too embarrassed to ask people in real life what they think and I want to know am I being unreasonable to be so annoyed? He's 31, we've been married for a year and his behaviour started going off after we got married."
So what is the gross habit? Well, according to the woman, it involves her husband's masturbation practices. She said he doesn't clean up after himself and leaves a "pungent smell" in their bedroom which turns her stomach. In her post, she explained: "I'm old enough and have enough experience of men to know it's normal, but he thinks it's ok to w*** into the bedsheets when I'm out. I came back and noticed a pungent smell, sat down on the bed and realised my hand was on a damp patch.
"He kept doing it, I said something. He got really ratty and said it was impossible I could know and started accusing me of sniffing the bedsheets – that is gross! I definitely wasn't imagining it!"
If that weren't bad enough, she went on to explain how her partner leaves laundry all over the floor, leaves mountains of plates in the sink, throws tea bags at the freshly painted wall, and doesn't quite shower enough. To make matters worse, she claims he doesn't want to spend proper time with her when they are together. Instead of enjoying alone time he "watches YouTube videos and reads all evening".
She added: "I really don't understand what's going on. I've tried to ask him very tactfully if there's a problem, but he gets annoyed and insists there isn't. I tried suggesting counselling but he went ballistic so I don't think that's an option. Sometimes I feel I'm even detecting a hint of dislike/contempt for me but I have no idea why. I feel like I'm dealing with an angry teenage boy and I don't know how I didn't pick up on all of this sooner. Please help, I'm losing my marbles!"
Her fellow Mumsnet users shared their shock at her comments and many had the same piece of advice to offer – leave him. One said: "What positives are there? He sounds like a nightmare and I can't see what you're getting from the relationship, sorry," while another wrote: "Leave. As quickly as you can. As bloody quick as you can. The future there is grim."
