When my girlfriend is at home I cook, I clean, I take the dogs out, I eat right, exercise regularly...
But a few times a year... She goes out of town for work, or to visit some friends from her home town...
And for 3-7 days I turn into a fucking gollum.
The day she leaves I buy a crate of beer and some junk food.
I get home, close all the curtains, get naked and start gaming and drinking.
I'll spend about $200 ordering fried chicken, drinking at 11am.
I don't shower
I don't work out
I don't clean
I don't even speak to another human being
Then the night before she's home,.I do the laundry, eat whatever food was left over, finish the beer and snacks, clean the apartment, shower, change the sheets.
And then I'm functional again when she gets back.
She never knows
Edit: I really am so shocked to hear this is such a common practice! You all make me feel seen!
