Ok, I admit it, I'm a two-timer! (Reply to this comment)
by briandalsmom
Yep, not only do I confess to doing it once, I actually do it twice--every day! My hair and my body have never shared a towel...and never will.
Hubby on the other hand hangs his up and uses it for a week--mixing his body hair head hair...yuck!
Thanks for the giggle!

SSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Don't be telling people that!! Goodness!! LOL
Yep, typical hubby. :) My Dad is still that way with my mom after almost 20 years. She will be trying to do homework (she's gone back to get her degree) and he pouts because she isn't sitting there, too. LOL Wants to know if she's about done yet.

Now Lisa, I KNOW you shop Adam & Eve online!
Don't play innocent with ME! I'm sure you have all kinds of games lined up to play when your hubby FINALLY gets home! Heh-heh!
And YEP...even WE old farts still play games! Remember, WE'RE still NEWLYWEDS!
I think that's one gripe he has about me being on the computer all the time! He's jealous of Epinions, and the time it takes away from him!
Geez....can't find the time to be on here unless the babies are asleep during the day, and then he wants me sitting right beside him while he watches TV at night!

Yes, I know.
Have you ever heard the expression "to hell in a handbasket"?
Well, in my case, it will be in a laundry basket!
At least according to my husband:)
But I kinda like the punishment he dishes out to me...when he catches me....don't tell anyone, but it's *whisper* ...K *I* N* K *Y!
ROFLMAO!!

Thanks Ginzo!
I knew you'd fall for it! After all, YOU are the guy who danced cheek to cheek with someone, and then had to sneak out after you figured it out!
Great piece! I mean...on the story...I was ROF when I read it!

I agree that a fresh towel should be used after each shower and then we use that towel for wiping hands.
After a shower the bathroom window opens up to dry EVERYTHING.
Why dry a clean body with a dirty towel?
Nic meeting you.

Re: You give new meaning to Cheek to Cheek! (Reply to this comment)
by iwannagrowup2b
Char,
All my friends are upset with me as well! Seems I was in the low percentile group when it comes to using a fresh towel each time!
Worse, I use one of those little "Turbie Twist" towels on my hair each time in addition to the bath towel! So I actually mess up two each time!
(I love those "Turbie Twist" towels...by the way! A "must have" for long, thick hair! Finally... an "AS SEEN ON TV" item that I don't feel was a rip off !)
My mother willingly takes the blame for my fresh towel obsession. I told her about writing this, and she admits it's because she raised me that way.
Thanks for reading and commenting!

I needed a good chuckle. Thanks for brightening my day. Now, if you'll excuse me I need to go do some laundry. I, um, well, gee, darn it, I have towels that have been hanging around a bit too long in my bathroom. Gosh, why did you have to point out the which end is which? I'll never get my laundry done now. ~sigh~ Smiles, Char

hey there... (Reply to this comment)
by sleeper54
.
I was concerned reading these comments about the lack of a male viewpoint...until usmc chimed in. Now we need the married male viewpoint...:-)
I use the towel until I can smell it as I start to pick it up...then it definitely gets tossed in the laundry basket...:-)
OK, maybe not quite to that point. . .
And if this is the worst problem you have, particularly in a 'round 2', you will do just fine...:-)

Re: HA! (Reply to this comment)
by iwannagrowup2b
Semper Fi there marine!
Did I get that right?
I was a former Army wife, and I think the only thing I can remember from that era was FTA! Don't even want to explain it....!!!! Old timers will know!
When you get that wife and four kids, one of two things will happen:
You'll always have fresh towels 'cause she will always be doing laundry with 4 kids!
or
You'll never have clean towels 'cause she'll be to busy to keep up with the laundry with 4 kids!
LOL!
Take care, Marine!

Re: Oh my .... (Reply to this comment)
by iwannagrowup2b
Nah! You don't haveta do more laundry! It's all tongue-in-cheek fussin' I'm doin'! Having a clean towel each time is just a quirk of mine!
If you wanta know something really kinky about me...I'll confess that when I take down his damp towel from the shower rod, and carrying it to the laundry, I hold it to my face and sniff for just a moment, 'cause it still has "his" clean body scent on it....and I love it!
Makes me feel close to him, 'cause I love the scent of his body. Especially when it's clean!
I basically just don't want clutter in the bathroom! And basically like to *itch! Makes me feel wifely!
LOL,
Connie

Oh my .... (Reply to this comment)
by elainehn
Guess I'll confess ... I'll use my bath towel more than once (but not my washcloth) because I too figure I'm clean when I get out of the shower. BUT!!!! I only want to use *MY* towel. I don't want to end up using a towel that one of the kids (no matter how much I love 'em) or my hubby has used. So I take my towel to my bedroom and hang it on my shoe rack on the back of my bedroom door. I'm selfish!!!!!
But you do make a good point about the 'which end' on 'which end' issue ... I hadn't really thought about that one before. GEEZZZZ just what I need, something to cause me to do MORE laundry!!!! ;-(
Thanks for the fun read!

Re: You have a happy marriage (Reply to this comment)

I know.....it's wonderful after almost 30 years of NOT being happy 'cause I didn't get loved in return!
I may even start using my towel at least twice.

You have a happy marriage (Reply to this comment)
by glomarrone
Hi,
Look if all you guys argue about are clean towels and shower curtain rods, you're doing OK. A big hug and kiss when he start to complain about the laundry issue will shut him up pretty quickly.
I'll bet you both stay married a long long time.
Now in our home what constitutes dinner is up for big discussions.

Thanks Sara...
That's what he keeps telling me...and the general consensus seems to back that up!
He DOES use a clean washcloth each and every time! He would be upset if I didn't point that one out!

LOL! (Reply to this comment)
by LilScamp
This is hilarious.
I used to be a single-use towel person, but I stopped that during college. Think of it this way-- regardless of which cheeks you dried with the towel the last time, after your shower, either set ought to be squeaky clean, right?
That's my rationale, at least.

NO NO NO!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!! (Reply to this comment)
by LisaDo
We NEVER reuse our towels. LOL My husband is worse than me, and has been known to use 2 towels after a shower, to which both go in the hamper. :) No towels, washcloths, pantyhose, bras, underwear, NOTHING hangs over the shower rod. LOL It's called a shower curtain rod for a reason. :) It's for the SHOWER CURTAIN, which remains closed when not in use. :)
Oh, and that seat is ALWAYS down and the toilet paper goes OVER! :)
Great review!! :)

I was ready to recommend you send this to Dear Abby... until I got near the end! LOL! And, "Whew!"
I think I can sum up the problem in four little words: It's a MAN thing.

Newlyweds have so many adjustments. My ex (note the operative word is EX) threw his underwear in the corner or our bedroom. . . we've been divorced many years; still irritates me when I think about it. Men.

Thanks Lorace....so far he's winning the debate. No one seems to have a problem with using towels at least twice.

You had me going for awhile! (Reply to this comment)
by lorace
LOL. When I got to the towel issue, I breathed a sigh of relief! LOL
Well, in our home, it's not an issue. We each have our own bathroom and I like my towels/washrags to match and I'm particular as to which washrag I use. Towels don't bother me so much and I generally use them twice.
When his look raunchy, I change them. But it's really a small issue considering real problems, isn't it? But the little ones do add up.
Great, tantalizing review,
Lorace

Re: Well... (Reply to this comment)
by iwannagrowup2b
He used that same argument you did about the body being clean after the bath or shower...so I guess you're in his corner on this one!
The toilet seat?
He's an absolute perfect angel on that one! His Mom...or ex-wife...or someone...trained him well!
Your remark on the toilet seat has me conjuring up an image of what my former ex-best friend of 35 years... who now lives with my ex-husband... has to put up with in that regard!
Not only did he leave it up ALWAYS... and I took the plunge once too many times whenever I didn't bother to turn on the light when getting up in the middle of the night half asleep....but, he was also too drunk most of the time to have good aim!
What a mess!
ROFLMAO....serves her right, wouldn't you say!

One thing I will not share (Reply to this comment)
by sweetsue_98
I will not share my bathroom nor my closet. I am selfish, but I hate anyone using my space. I have the big bathroom in the MBR and my husband has the one down the hall. I have the walk-in closet and he has his own extra room for his guy stuff. He doesn't care if the towels match, as long as they are clean. Mine have to match, and I use them twice before washing. After all you are clean when you get out of the shower.
We will be married 34 years in December, so maybe it is a secret to staying together.
