Very Personal Question for Long-term Marrieds

[DGS49]

I have been married for fifty-one years. Most of those years it has been just the two of us.

Not one time has either one of us gone to the toilet and left the door open.

I have the impression that this is not a universal practice. I've seen films where couples continue a conversation while one of them evacuates its bladder. I can't imagine doing something so vulgar.

What do you think, do?

Do you put the toilet seat down after you pee?

As a man who grew up in a household of women, I decided early on that if I was to be inconvenienced for their comfort, they should be too. I have been lowering both seats for over sixty years.

Amazing. I don't think I've ever even thought about this, but my late husband and I never closed the bathroom door.

Plus, towards the last few years of his life, as his disability progressed, I never wanted to have a closed door between us, just in case.

Congratulations. Fifty-one years is impressive.

I can't imagine that, "for me" either. And my hubby even puts the seat down after he empties his bladder. We treat each other's privacy concerns with respect and without explanation. My hubby always says, "a happy wife is a happy life." Aww. And he lives that. What a great friend and husband.

You can't actually see one doing their business with our bathroom door open so it mostly makes no difference.

I constantly imagine individuals with their pants down and fumbling to properly clean their arse when I think they have outgrown their worth and importance .

Or , when they clearly value their importance and looks over others .

This automatic reflex establishes a common playing field of inconsequence and insignificance .

If that works for you, then that's great. I always figured if you shared every aspect of your lives, a natural body function like taking a leak wasn't a big deal. Of course, everybody might not agree with that. You do what feels right to you.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

We had a place that had his and hers bathrooms once.
That was a great floorplan.

I live alone and keep the door closed when I'm taking a crap...

It's a meaningless phobia.

Congrats on the 51 years. I thought I was doing well with 26. lol

Wouldn't want to scare your six dozen cats. I completely understand...


LMAO. I jest, I jest.

you only have a dozen.

Just out of curiousity, what is the recipicol of that?

A happy Husband is, "We'll see about that?"

 

[okfine]

Do you put the toilet seat down after you pee?

After pissing all over himself ???

I have one cat and he is blind.... lol

We're flexible. Dumps require a closed door and the exhaust fan but my wife might slap me with a towel while I'm whizzing with the door open. She has to clean up the errant piss, she knows the rules.

Just hit 47 years this month.....Door open but then again it's my bathroom.....She has her own, door closed.

Meh.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

41 years and I let her use the bathroom first, and stand there while waiting. We do have a gate on the bathroom door to keep the dogs from stealing the TP.

Congrats--we will hit 48 the end of next month.
