Heya Liz...i really think i may have painted him badly here...its not as bad as maybe it sounds..but he has grown up not knowing what its like to be self concious...he loves me and doesnt understand why i am...its not that he doesnt respect me i just dont think he really understands that just cos he isnt shy doesnt mean that im not too! He is absolutley lovely though, a really nice fella...just very open!! xxxx |

I know this is not quite what you are referring to, ( I dont shave my legs any more) but I never lock the door..................if I collapse or something I would like someone to be able to get to me,,,,,,,,,instead of 'OH, I havent seen him for weeks'!!!!!! Bob |

PMSL Steedie, It's so hard going to the loo when you first move in with someone. Luckily my bathroom door does lock so I can have some privacy. I found it helped to buy nice air freshining things and toilet ducks. Dean used to run the tap at first and pretend he was brushing his teeth lol. Took us a few months but we've settled in together now and don't even think about it. I can even go to the loo the morning after and not be too embarassed! Jack xx |

Steedie I would not be laughing, I'd be furious! I am so mild and quiet it's untrue but I would NOT put up with someone barging in, when it was obvious that you didn't want him to. Does he not respect that you have a right to privacy sometimes? I've been married a good few years but believe you can respect regarding privacy, without being prudish. Set your rules about this, and stick to them. |

I know exactly what you mean. My little girl even tries to get on my knee when I'm on the loo! As for my son - well, after many false starts I now have him trained to knock on the bathroom door. He is getting the idea though becuase he was most indignant when his little sister walked in on him having a wee at the weekend! Abigail |

The height of intimacy, eh? Nell, by the way, that book sounds good! Bit late for us now, but I'll tell hubby about the 80% of the wardrobe bit. |

Steedie When my husband and I first moved in together umpteen years ago, he got a book out of the library called 'Come live with me' which had ground rules for cohabiting. Things like how to sort out finances, establish privacy in the bathroom etc. I remember that one of the rules is that the female gets 80% of the wardrobe space. When we had kids we had one bathroom with the loo in it. I found both kids wanted to accompany me in there all the time. Later on, as soon as I sank into a relaxing foam bath there would be a knock on the door 'Need to do a poo NOW' . We now have a downstairs loo an upstairs bathroom with loo and my bedroom has an ensuite. Bliss! nell |
