So my wife has a bunch of her friends over for a hen party. I know my place well. Help with dinner, make a big pitcher of margaritas, and then get the hell out until it's time to clean up. So I retire to my man cave which is very fortunately on the complete opposite side of the house. Later I make a visit to the can to find that someone has pissed all over the toilet, the floor, and everything else that's in range. So I clean everything up, and so far I haven't told the wife, because I know she'll go completely ballistic when she finds out. You might be able to understand it if our bathrooms looked like those in a truck stop, but my wife is a clean freak, almost to the point of being obsessive-compulsive about it. Our bathrooms are spotless, especially when guests are coming over. I guess I need help understanding this behavior. Why do some women do this? I'm debating on whether to tell my wife at all. There's no telling who did it and she might not feel so good about having her friends over at all over this.

(26,608 posts)caught the hoverer by spy-camming her friends on the toilet, her reaction will probably not include admiration of his detective skills...
(Although when your host/husband is named after a camera, I guess you take your chances.)

(27,711 posts)Use a cover story: I went to the bathroom and I saw so and so coming out. I went in and there was piss all over the place. This has happened before and now I know the identity of the hoverer.
Gosh petronius, get with the program!

(36,384 posts)Next time your wife's friends are over, sit in the next room and spy on them as they use the toilet. Make sure you are caught doing this. Your wife's friends will never come over again and problem solved. There will be some other issues that will have to be dealt with. One or two of which could be very serious but most will be minor and easily taken care of.
