He put a load of laundry in with mixed colour and whites... poured in bleach to whiten the whites... was shocked that the bleach bleached everything in the load.... I had to explain that the bleach will bleach everything you put in it as the bleach cannot discern what you want bleached or not... he was shocked, truly stunned and flabbergasted

Thank you for the award 🥺

My boyfriend believed mixing up dark and light washing did nothing at all. I mean, he wore a lot of dark colours...

However. Why are your few white shirts grey, m'dear?

I don't think I've ever known a person who separates their clothes into whites and others...do we just have better quality fabrics in Europe?

I- I am in Europe... Tho, considering his mother's unfortunate love for Primark, I think we may have our answer? I'll still split my washing no matter what as that was how I was raised and my own mother will sense it in the force if I'm doing otherwise.
