Why can't I.....
 

go poop around Dapper after being together over 3 years? I worry about what is going to happen when we move in together. I think I am really up shit's creek.

I wonder if it is because I have control issues......


What can't you do around your significant other?

Well first of all, tantalizing femme, LOL, I think it's okay to always keep a few things out of your partner's view, to keep a few things behind the curtain, no matter what stage your relationship is in. You know, some mystery?

You say it like it's a bad thing, that you don't "poop" around your sweetie. I think ... it's really okay. Maybe it's healthy to have a little bit of private ground, some harmless bit of inviolable space, within shared space.

Some old movie I remember, it had Jill Clayburg, I can't remember the title—anyway, the man she's dating says he wants them to grow old together, and put their teeth in the same glass, and she says, "I want my own glass."

I was with a woman for ten years and we used to laugh and say, "I want my own glass," sometimes. We let each other have that little bit of separateness, when we needed it.

And btw, congratulations on moving in together!!

Well the move in is future. No date. But I mean I can't do it unless I am in my own home and hy is at hys. Hy thinks I'm just really odd.

Lmaoooooo


Ok, well after almost 9 years I have no problem doing most things
in front of mah Wife. However, and this is pushing the envelope
on mah own limits of privacy as to what I post...but when I'm
stepping into mah Strap, the dressing room is closed.

:shocking:

:daywalker:

Hahahahahaha :) I was sitting here reading your post out loud to Katy and then read Island Scout's response, and Katy was like, "YES! That! RIGHT THERE! What she said!!!"

I drive her C R A Z Y with my nonsensical privacy issues (of which I have none!) I think some of the best conversations two people can have are sometimes formulated in the bathroom.

She would like everything I do in the bathroom to remain a mystery. ;)

Pooping issues are funny. My oldest daughter refuses to eat before school because the thought of having to poop AT school absolutely mortifies her.

I have been known to fart on the first date. True story.

Perhaps I am the wrong person for this thread because there's really nothing I can't do around Katy. I'm gross like that. ;) My poor, poor honey. :praying:

That's awesome! Thanks. :)

Me too.... Nothing is a secret. I wish I was more lady like but it just doesn't work that way. But! In front of other people, different story. I would NEVER poop in public. I would rather be in pain for an hour and drive home. Oh well. Haha :-)

I think that's so funny.... I wisher I were "looser"..... :)

It's not just you, Tantalizingfemme. My best friend lived with his former girlfriend for two years and never ONCE saw her use the bathroom or heard her fart.

That just blows my mind!

You are just a private person! :) Kudos to you!

Step in close the door turn the fan on or open window go -spray an air freshner leave the bathroom come out telling hym it smells like a bed of roses in there ( even though hy knows better -will agree with you and wait until it airs out lol). We are all human and we all do it. But I still have problems crapping in a public restroom at times . My one GF actually told me I taught her to fart lol.

lol.......

I just blame it all on my mother..... :)

Another trick I learned is to flush the toilet as soon as you start to poop (OMG I LOVE THIS THREAD!!!) and that way there's no poop noise and a vast reduction of poopy smell. Either that or have a coughing fit if it's a noise issue.

lmao I would probably be laughing too hard and not be able to go.....

Honestly, it's not noise or smell that stops me. I don't have the urge at all. Even if we have been together for 4 or 5 days straight. (and I'm vegan so I get plenty of ruffage) But the minute I get home, or hy leaves to go to hys.... game on.

OMG...you all have me laughing so hard...

tantalizingfemme, how about starting with a phone call? You could still remain in separate homes, but give Dapper a call from the toilet when you have to poop. It might be a step towards more intimacy, and toilet flushing tricks wouldn't be necessary because any smell would be a non-issue.

Or have Dapper right outside the closed bathroom door.

OMG. I kind of want you guys to video tape this exchange.

Not that I'm weird or anything. :eyebat:

Whole thing was I think she was serious lol.

I hope DB doesn't see this, he'll never answer my calls again. :)

That would be a start Jen, thanks! I would probably cover the mouth piece the entire time though....

I'm seriously laughing so hard I'm choking.... I would tape it just so I could see the look on hys face.

I just peed a little!!!!

Same here
 

omg Belle.... that is soo funny. I'm still laughing thinking about Bully walking down the hall and you screaming "don't look" and Bully's head snapping straight and eyes straight forward. .

PoopS Happy Anniversary

LMAO, yes the 2 dogs always follow her in there and sometimes the cat. But never me. Honey I don't try to guess if it's No. 1 or No. 2 :superfunny:

I had a room mate in college and for 4 years she would turn the water on full blast whenever she was in the bathroom. Every so often me or one of the other roomies would mess with her and talk to her through the door while she was in there. I'm sure she was in there thinking "assholes! I gotta poop!"
Yeah, we were assholes.:blink:

I have a cat who LIVES for me to have to poop. She likes to be petted by me from my seated position on the toilet, vibrating her tail to insist I do it, or gently scratching my lower leg if I ignore her. Sometimes, in addition to trying to produce a poop, I've also got a lap top sitting on the edge of the bathtub and a People magazine in my hands- the last thing I need is to be stroking a needy cat! The problem is that if I close the door all the way, she will scratch the door and cry and try desperately to get inside. If I close it almost all the way, then there is a sufficient boundary from BB, and I just have to hope that she doesn't knock open the door, leaving it grossly ajar, such that the whole spiritual experience of the poop is ruined. Wow, I didn't know I had so much to say on this topic :|

OMG!

June said excrete.

The world is gonna explode!!!

or maybe just me!!

I guess for me, it's the idea that hy knows what I am doing. And turning on the water for me is like sending out an alert to those within earshot that I'm gonna be pooping.... lol

Poop talk is so funny....fart talk makes me lol too.

When I read this, tantalizingfemme, I said, *omg, me too!* --

meaning I blame my mother too!

(for some, not all, bathroom rules;
toilet paper issues, included)

I. LIVE. FOR. BATHROOM. HUMOR.

Amen.

When Jackhammer and I were dating long distance I would fly to LA for a week or more and for at least the first 10 trips I would send her to the store.

Generally for Diet Dr. Pepper.

As soon as she pulled out of the driveway, it was a mad dash for the bathroom! Fling open the door, turn on the fan, pre-spray the area with Glade, open the window, crap as quickly as possible while flushing the whole time, and then when done you have to stand there fanning the door back and forth to force the smell out the open window.

I blame my mother for everything. And TP issues... oh gosh. I remember going to a friends house, I had to have been around 6, maybe 7, and her mother handed me ONE square of TP when I went to use the bathroom.

I wasted more money on the tons of soap and water I used to wash my hands then it would have to cost to hand over one or two more.
