I’m Sick And Tired Of My Wife Coming In To Poop While I’m In The Shower
Matt’s wife has a nasty habit of letting herself in the bathroom to poop while he is in the shower. So he started locking the bathroom door while he is showering. Recently while in the shower, he heard her banging on the door saying it was an emergency but he refused to let her in and she pooped her pants. Now she is angry at him, but Matt feels like he needs to set boundaries and stands by his decision. Is it normal for a wife to poop while her husband is in the shower? Would you lock the door or let the wife in?
Jonathan: And today for panic button, we have Matt. Matt, I don’t know how to phrase this. You’ve got a conundrum involving the number two. What did you have? What’s going on, Matt?
Matt: Well, my wife going to kill me for sharing this, but basically, she’s really a free spirit with her body. Which is good. I’m happy that makes her happy to to do those things like not shave her armpits or what not.
Ayla: With the free the nipple campaign, the whole thing.
Matt: Yes, exactly, exactly. I’m here for it. But I think you’ll see where I draw the line, very shortly. And how that plays out for me. She likes to use the bathroom while I’m showering.
Jonathan: OK
Matt: I mean, maybe she doesn’t like to. But that just seems to be what always happens when I need to shower. She needs to go to the bathroom.
Jonathan: Wow.
Matt: So she’s always doing it. I was showering the other day.
Jonathan: Why do you think is? Just the water? Maybe it sets her off?
Ayla: Yeah. You know, sometimes you hear water or touch it and you have to pee.
Matt: Yeah, maybe to pee. But this day, she was knocking on the door and she was like, I need to poop. I need to poop so bad.
Jonathan: Okay.
Matt: And, you know, I’m taking a shower. This is my clean space. When you take a shower to wash away. You don’t want to next to that.
Jonathan: I mean, I don’t know where your toilet is at, But in most houses the toilet’s right next to the shower. It’s disgusting.
Matt: Yeah, I want anything to do with any poop.
Jonathan: Yeah.
Matt: I was in my shower. And she’s always doing this. So I just didn’t take her that seriously. And I didn’t unlock the door because, you know, I don’t want her to.
Ayla: Has she pooped in front of you before?
Jonathan: Yeah. If you just do it again.
Ayla: Yeah. Right. Whoa.
Jonathan: The show is taking a dramatic turn. She done this before, though.
Matt: Yeah, she’s definitely done this before. That’s super gross when I’m brushing my teeth, you know?
Ayla: That’s gross. She’ll just come in and be like, hey, good morning?
Jonathan: Yeah.
Matt: Definitely.
Ayla: Every couple should have their own private bathrooms. I mean, I know not everyone is that lucky. I’m sure you only have the one in your house.
Jonathan: That’s my wife’s fantasy.
Ayla: I would. You need you need to. One for each person.
Jonathan: Russell Wilson, the quarterback for the Broncos, had a house with more bathrooms than bedrooms. And she’s like, that’s my fantasy house.
Ayla: That’s where I want to live.
Jonathan: Anyway. So, your wife. What happened? She had an accident?
Matt: Precisely. I didn’t unlock the door, and she, went in her pants.
Jonathan: She had an accident.
Matt: I mean, I felt terrible, I felt awful, I really did. I didn’t realize how bad she needed to go.
Ayla: Yeah, but he needs his private time.
Matt: It happens all the time.
Jonathan: She was saying it’s an emergency.
Ayla: Yeah. But she’s done this so many times in the past where he’ll be showering or brushing his teeth.
Jonathan: And she always said, it’s an emergency.
Matt: She’ll say it’s an emergency. And that’s what privacy should be like.
Ayla: Yeah, you need your own time.
Matt: And showers are like a sacred time.
Ayla: Yes, I agree with you.
Matt: It’s like my clean time.
Ayla: Couples who poop around each other are weird.
Matt: I mean, yeah.
Jonathan: I’ve, I can honestly say in, in 17 years of marriage and 26 years of being together, I’ve never pooped around my wife. We don’t poop around each other. We’re not that confident with each other. It’s weird. Having said that, I would have no problem if she needed to get into the bathroom in his emergency. I would stop taking a shower and let her go.
Matt: My my question is kind of like, where do you set the boundary? Is it okay to set it when your married.
Jonathan: Yes. To be like, I need my bathroom time.
Matt: I don’t want you coming in on my bathroom time.
Jonathan: I think that part of marriage is giving up boundaries, not creating more. But that’s just me.
