How comfortable are you and your S.o?

We have zero barriers. I would say the barriers disappeared after being together for about 6-8 months. We literally have no shame .

Lol that barrier has been long gone for us. I used to give myself the worst stomach aches not wanting to fart in front of him. Then one day I was trying to leave the room and he knew I had to fart so he held me down and started tickling me. Well I was mortified when I ended up farting in front of him, and he was just like see babe its no big deal. I used to shave almost religiously but I definitely slack on that now. He doesn't complain about the stubble lol.

I have been married going on 30 years and still shave my legs daily. I have never intentionally farted with him present (although when I commented on his snoring, he commented on me farting in my sleep--touche!). I have never been able to poop within a 1/4 mile radius of him, or anyone else. Whenever we're on vacation and I have to, I make some excuse about why I have to go to the hotel lobby and use that bathroom instead.🤷

View Quoted Comment This is amazing! LOL I know this will be me to a T in 30 years!

Second day of dating he tooted in front of me and it went downhill from there ha. I was Soooo scared. I never farted infront of any of my exs. So that took me about 3 months. I have always been shy with my body but we just walk around the house NAKED.. that took me like 4 months lol. Poop and pee open door always. Theres no reason we have doors. He comes home i sit by the door while he does his bathroom business we talk about our day and the tea ha. Sexy time clean up he watches the routine. we got very comfortable quick ha. My mom says she probably only tooted 3 times in front of my dad. My mom thinks its weird that he burps and farts in front of everyone. He has no filter ha

Oh, I think we ignored that line somewhere in the first week of dating.

Then again, I had a miscarriage last year, and DH was literally holding onto me in the bathtub... later, he *ran* to the store to get me the pads I needed...

When you're married, when you're pregnant... those lines GO. They have to, if you want to support each other.

I dunno. Bodies are bodies. Everyone has one.

Awww lol no my husband and I are completely fine around each other, we don't have those problems. We also were bestfriends for 7 years before we started dating so maybe that helped a little? I get waxed so I don't have to worry about the shaving part but even then he wouldn't care. When things were shut down because of Covid I didn't shave nearly as much and he was fine with it. I also pass gas in front of him, he rarely does it in front of me though but he's not a gassy person. Idc though lol

Zero barriers over here, we've been together almost 7 years and I honestly have no idea when the barriers stopped. The only thing people find too much that we do is poop in front of each other When I'm leaving for work in the morning, he's usually taking his morning bathroom break so I always kiss him goodbye while he's on the toilet lmfaoo.

I think the barriers really broke after a horrific car accident 2 years ago, he almost didn't make it and we realized life is way to short and time isn't promised, so we may as well kiss every chance we get and just live our lives together without worrying about embarrassment, (also having to hold a container for him to pee in so the nurses could get his urine levels helped alot lol)

View Quoted Comment Oh wow, I’m sorry to hear that!


I can imagine if this were to be the case for us, the “sexy” thing would go out the window and he would just be there for me. We’ve taken care of each other when sick, I’m just not one to openly share some things with him or anyone!

I don't like to fart in front of FH and can think of only one or two times that it's happened, but we've made a grading system out of burps lol. Scale it 1-10 usually.

FH has suffers from a genetic condition that caused part of his colon to be removed when he was a toddler, and because of that he'll spend 30 minutes or more in the restroom just passing gas and it literally smells like something died. If he has to go right before bed he just makes sure that the TV is on and volume up and he'll also watch videos on his phone to try and drown out the sound (and spray a ton of air freshener to cover the smell. Poopurri only does so much), but if it's a regular day and we're just hanging out in the master suite he'll ask me to leave before he goes in so I can't hear him lol. He's also never passed gas in front of me for this reason, so it's a two way street on that one lol.

My FH and I have been long distance for four years now. I've forgotten my razor before, and one time I forgot my entire toiletry bag. I passed the barrier a while ago, he has not quite passed it yet. I am happy being comfortable around him and have tried to tell him that he needs to feel more comfortable around me because we will be living together and we should be comfortable in our home and together. It is definitely person preference though, if you are still in the sexy stage there is nothing wrong with that at all.

"for example, the thought of passing gas in front of him makes me want to die LOL."

WE HAVE BEEN LIVING TOGETHER FOR 5 YEARS and Let's be clear: You're NOT alone! Doesn't mean I don't do it😃 😄. It means I avoid doing it, as often as possible and I'm super uncomfortable everytime it happens. In fact I only "drop" when NOBODY is around me 😁.

" if he doesn't like my prickly legs when I'm too lazy to shave well...that's his problem lol":

Oh God I can relate. I dared to tell her that , one day: "I don't care , you don't have to touch them. You don't even have to watch them" .

🤐

I'm pretty sure my husband and I are barrier-less.

I was thinking along these lines too. I think once a partner sees a woman birth a child, there are no more "secrets" or illusions about bodies being perfect all the time. Sorry for your loss.

I think "bodies are bodies" sums it up beautifully!

I grew up with lots of doctors constantly poking/probing/observing so I legit have 0 barriers, no sense of privacy, and FH served 3 tours with a bunch of gross dudes out in the desert so heʻs done everything in front of randoms for years and..... weʻre pretty gross comfortable. We were having full conversations with each other in the bathroom doing our thing like on the 3rd date. Itʻs an ongoing joke in our families about how we found our fellow gross person with 0 boundaries haha

We are pretty comfortable. I try to fart quietly in front of him, but I don't hold it in. I also frequently leave the door open while peeing so I can keep talking to him or watch our show, but I like to poop in privacy. He will 100% burp and fart loudly in front of me lol
