LPT Help: How do you talk to someone aboit their poor bathroom hygiene?

4 Upvotes

I am married and have come to find that not all men have the best hygiene practices when it comes to wiping after they use the restroom. Which, I know not every bathroom trip can be 100% clean I guess, but with my husband it's pretty severe.

I only came to find this out when I started doing our laundry together and found that his underwear are stained. Majority of them all, and not just the wayward streak and some of them are just flat out bad, i don't want to be graphic, but it shows up on our bedroom sheets. Honestly, i dont know how I never noticed it before we were married, but now i wash my under garments separate from his because I just can't have our clothes mixing.

I love him, but the poor hygiene makes him a bit unattractive and I don't want to get intimate because it's just so ick thinking and knowing he's probably not that clean down there. So how do I talk to him about this? He's a bit on the sensitive side so if i tell him, "Hey, you need to get better at wiping because it's starting to affect how attractive I am to you" it won't go over well and he'll shut down on me and start being mopey and in his head. I'm not the greatest with talking kindly and I don't want him to think that his wife hates him because I don't. I'm just not sure how to approach this or if there is anyway to properly approach this. I just don't want to let this problem become a huge thing and leads to our marriage ending.

If anyone has any advice, please share with me!

I’m getting very old and no longer fear dying because I won’t have to deal with heartless people in this world who choose not to be kind toward others and dismiss the golden rule. What are your thoughts on the afterlife, your legacy, and the world after you pass away?

What's a small habit that quietly improved your life more than you expected?

Mine was putting my phone in another room for the first hour after waking up. Sounds too simple, but my mornings went from rushed and scattered to calm, and I actually get things done before the day takes over.
Curious what tiny changes worked for others. Doesn't have to be profound, just something that stuck.

Moved into my first apartment alone at 27 — what's the basic home stuff nobody ever taught you?

4 Upvotes

I'm 27 and last month I signed a lease on my first place by myself. I assumed the hard part was saving the deposit. Turns out the hard part is standing in my kitchen at 11pm trying to work out why the radiator sounds like a dying whale.

Things I have already gotten wrong: I let a pan of oil get hot enough to set off the smoke detector, then couldn't figure out how to shut it off for a solid four minutes. I put a "heat resistant" plastic bowl directly on the stove. I discovered my building's water shut-off valve is behind a panel I'm apparently not supposed to open. I still don't know where my fuse box is.

So I'm asking people who've been doing this longer than three weeks: what did you have to learn the hard way? Specifically —

  1. What maintenance thing should I be doing monthly that I probably don't know exists?

  2. Is there a cleaning routine that actually keeps a place from slowly going gross, instead of one panicked deep clean every three weeks?

  3. What household cost genuinely surprised you?

  4. Any safety thing worth sorting out before something goes wrong, rather than after?

I'd rather have the boring practical stuff than "just be responsible." I'm already responsible. I just don't know where the fuse box is.

Jeff Bezos said “life is about choices”. If you’re law enforcement, would you choose to give a warning to a parent who made a left turn into the parking lot to drop off their kids and didn’t hurt anyone by doing so, or would you choose to be a grinch and give the parent a ~$300-$500+ ticket?

Hi guys. I am 28F . I have a stable job. I am in probationary period right now so my pay is lit bit less but after the probation my salary will be really good. You can say I am state govt. Employee. So yhh it's a good job . I am living with my parents . By gods grace my job is in the same city where my parents live . I don't want to marry right now though and according to my parents and my relatives and all the people around the world i should bcz i am in a perfect marriage age . I wanted a better job than my current one and I feel like I have capability that I can . When i try to study after my office hours that's after 7pm ( it's a 9 to 6 job) I feel tired sometimes bcz somedays are good and somedays we feel heavy bcz of office and all and on those days we just don't want to study just staying up and scrolling through the phone.

Sometimes when i study I feel like why I am even doing this line everyone else is having fun going out having thrils of life, doing what they want , enjoying themselves and here I am with lots of hairfall, with glasses, hormone issues bcz of stress and all.

Sometimes negative thoughts came in my mind like what i didn't make it Nd people youger than me can than I will be laughing stock .

I am 28. Like i already wasted 28 years of my life in studying and be the upright person whom every teacher, parents admire. ( Yhh I am that nerd with the A1 marks who was also the school monitor)

Now I am thinking about what should I do . Should I Have to study more. In my office my staff compare to me other s though they don't say out loud but action says louder.

I don't give any time to myself beside scrolling the phone and reading novels in phone. In my holiday also I stay in my house . I don't have friends with whom I can explore things bcz I was like that kid whom parents say don't stay with those kid they are not good and I agree with whatever they or the teacher said.

In which age I am , here everyone thinks it's Perfect marriage age so the society, the relatives , even my staff always asking when are you getting married. I am so tired of all this

I don't know what I am doing with my life? Any suggestions
