Update: All of my scunchies started going missing when I met my boyfriend

r/

Y’allllll. He just left and I have to write this now while it’s fresh in my mind.

So, as many of you came at me for not doing immediately, I had a talk with him tonight. I had planned on it, but when I discovered the last batch of missing scrunchies this morning, I snapped and just wanted to get some ideas of what he could be doing with them. I didn’t want to approach it via text or while either of us were working, so I figured I’d just wait till this evening to approach him. A lot of people told me that I should be able to talk to him, but it’s still so new I just didn’t want to approach it at first.

Most of you were wrong, but a few of you beautiful, twisted people got it right. Without further ado, allow me to provide my best recollection of the conversation:

Me: I keep losing my scrunchies and it’s driving me nuts, have you see any of them around?
Him: Not really, don’t you have one on your night stand?
Me: yeah, but I used to have A LOT more and now they’re missing. It’s so weird.

At this point his demeanor kind of changed. To be fair I was staring him down and he knew I knew. He just shrugged at me. The demeanor switch gave me enough of a spidey sense that I just flat out asked them why he was taking them. He initially tried to say that he didn’t, then he tried to say he was accidentally taking them and said he would put them on his wrist and forget to take them off. I pressed him saying I never saw them on his wrist and I always kiss him good bye so I would notice. He looked like he was about to start crying and kept saying he didn’t know, which didn’t make sense because he clearly did. I got frustrated and raised my voice and demanded to know, at which point he admitted he was masturbating with them. I just kinda stared at him and for a second I was glad that I made the post because the initial shock wasn’t as bad since it was brought to my attention that this is…. Common? I had him explain and he said that one night early on he was at my place and we had made out but I told him I didn’t want to have sex. He shimmied away to the bathroom and had looked around for something to use as lube. I only had scented lotions around and he was worried I’d notice that he smelt like them, so he chose the next best thing which I guess was my ultra plush towel scrunchie. After he defiled my poor scrunchie, he apparently panicked and rinsed it out and put it in his pocket. I guess this experience ignited something within him, because he started taking them to masturbate with. When I asked why he didn’t just keep up with the same one and wash it or buy his own pack, he said that it felt better because it was mine. Cute… I guess?

He told me he would never take another one and apologized profusely for being weird. He even offered to buy me new ones. While he wasn’t as manipulative or scary as some people thought, I still don’t love that trust has been broken so early on and that he stole from me, regardless of reason. I asked for space and he left. So yeah, I don’t really know what I plan to do from here, but now we all know! Apparently scrunchies of your loved one feel REALLY good if anyone wants to give it a shot… with permission of course 😉

    I don’t even know what to say about that. I mean it sounded before like he’s taken at least 15 or 20 of them and I don’t get how using a scrunchie instead of lotion makes sense at all

    So happy I caught the update early, but baby this is weird…. Really weird. I say it ain’t no coming back from this like I can’t explain why this just doesn’t feel right with my soul… it’s lowkey creepy

    I think this relationship has run its course because he stole from you and then he lied to you.

    He couldn’t have just kept washing one and using it more than once instead of stealing allllll of yours? I mean it’s weird but I’d be more mad that he was so wasteful with it 😂😂😂

    But in all seriousness if I was newly dating someone and they told me that they stole something from me to masterbate with I’d get the ick real bad

    Yikes. It’s the theft, and then the lying.

    Hooooo boy. Suspicions confirmed.

    Be glad he wasn’t jizzing all over them and returning them to the drawer for you to wear, I guess

  19. RadioSupply Avatar

    As the kids say, he’s doing way, way too much. I definitely think he’s sketchy and gross and immature.

    He stole from you to jerk off instead of going and buying his own scrunchies. I don’t know what else to say.

  20. lastnightsglitter Avatar

    I paused at the whole way this apparently started… you guys were making out. You said no sex so he JERKED OFF IN YOUR BATHROOM??! With or without the scrunchie I find that weird.

    The stealing like all of your scrunchies just makes it weirder…

    Wonder what other weird shit this dudes got going on ?!

  21. yersinia_pisstest Avatar

    Maybe he uses them as diy ballsack stretchers?

    STEP ONE: take scrunchie
    STEP TWO: have scrunchie sex
    STEP THREE: add scrunchie to the ones he already has on his scrotum

    If he keeps doing it, someday he’ll be able to smack himself on the back of his own head with his nuts.

    What the hell did I just read buzzed AF and not knowing the original post 😩

  23. Shortstack82 Avatar

    Today it’s scrunchies. Soon enough it’ll be your underwear or pantyhose. I’d bet money he has a cross dressing fetish.

  24. Blood_sweat_and_beer Avatar

    That’s, uh, super odd. And def not cute. He’s stealing your belongings so he can masturbate with them. He honestly believes that his hornyness and desire to masturbate with YOUR THINGS outweighs your right to own said things. His lack of basic respect and common decency is outstanding.

  25. EveningBumbleBeen Avatar

    Wow. Lmao. When I told my husband about your first post this is immediately what he said was going on, and I was skeptical but he was right.

    What an absolute fucking loser. How could you ever have sex with this guy again omfg.

    If someone did this to my SILK scrunchie, I would be livid! He owes you all brand new scrunchies and don’t skimp! Make him shell out for good ones for scarring you!

    Hard pass on this guy. Lies and steals to suit his kinks.

  37. TheNOLAJohnson Avatar

    Lol he’s got a scrunchie fleshlight that he sniffs every night. No way he threw them away. This dude gonna a total freak/basement dweller in 10 years and try to return them.

  38. Legitimate-Night2408 Avatar

    Ask him to replace all the scrunchies or to send you money for them and then break up

  39. Beanz4ever Avatar

    Omg I almost commented on the last post that he was masturbating with them but I just figured that was my twisted brain.

    To find out after the fact!?! Bury me; I’m dead.

    Oh OP good on you for finding the truth and sharing it with all us crazies out here.

    Men and their penises…. never change! Ever!

    Nope Nope Nope. If you continue this relationship it will just be rewarding bad behavior and more boundaries will be pushed. These are the red flags people ignore and regret it later.

    thats disgusting, i wouldn’t stay with anyone that thinks its okay to steal their partners property to masturbate with AND THEN lie about it until forced to come clean. wtf is wrong with people.

  47. whatislifebro69 Avatar

    You told him you didn’t want to have sex and he went to the next room and masturbated? How long were you guys dating that he couldn’t wait until he got home? This feels especially weird to me.

  48. KhostfaceGillah Avatar

    I don’t even see how that shit is even comfortable to jack off in? Like wtf

  49. Suitable-School-1445 Avatar

    The way I would have LAUGHED! But also I 100% would have given him a list of scrunches that he needs to buy because I be buying the pretty ones with bows and silk and shit. GIVE ME MY SCRUNCHIES! To me this would all be a thing where it would be an inside joke for the future. That is to say I’m not invalidating your feelings, I’m sorry it was an unpleasant thing and the trust is gone. Maybe in future if you see something amiss address it head on, just be like hey are you taking these or are you doing this. Also this would be a good opportunity to open up the conversation about being open about the awkward situations that will occur and that hiding these things will create more mistrust.

    I can’t unread it. My suggestion was he was tying up bags of chips. I’m so naive.

  55. BigFatBlackCat Avatar

    I would feel pretty violated if I were you. He basically stole items from you, lied to you, and then gaslit you about it. That’s pretty gross behavior and shows that when it comes to sex, he is open to doing inappropriate things. He doesn’t seem to have control over himself

  63. marshmallowfluffpuff Avatar

    He tried to blame you for losing them instead of being honest that he was stealing from you for sexual reasons. You had to dig the truth out and he lied until he caved.

    If he’s gonna lie about this and try to bury the lie, he’s going to lie about everything. On top of that, stealing over a fetish is fucking gross.

    He’s a liar, a thief, and a perv. I’d leave.

    I don’t know. In American Pie I learned that young horny guys would pretty much f*ck anything so this wouldn’t bother me. He’s not cheating he’s masturbating.

    No kink shame! But it was over the line to steal your stuff to support his kink. Super wasteful, too.

    Dude, you get one thing – pair of panties (the back ups, not the nice ones), scrunchy, hosiery – and you clean and reuse said object (or not if that is a part of the kink). You do not steal an entire bin full of scrunchies! Rude. And you definitely do not get the favorite scrunchies. Second best only!

  72. Taralinas Avatar

    That’s absolutely ridiculous! …and some people even predicted this??

  73. Fun_Coat_4454 Avatar

    Weird. Like he could have shopped for new ones to gift to you. And keep gifting. I think what really burns my ass is that he wasn’t helping replace them. Like make a contribution my dude. You wanna have a kink like that, at least be a sugar daddy or scrunchies. A scrunchadaddy.

  74. SnarkSnout Avatar

    Never trust a man who will gaslight you at the expense of you trusting your own intuition, which is what he did when he denied and lied. The lying is a red flag by itself. The stealing is a red flag by itself. Both are signs that you should run.

    But the gaslighting is the hugest red flag of all, you should never trust someone like that with your heart and emotional well-being.

    I wouldn’t stay with him because of the violation. He felt so entitled to a connection with her when he couldn’t have sex with her he had sex with her things. He stole those things and the lack of consent bothers me. That doesn’t mean he would do anything more than this, but it is sneaky, suggests he has boundary issues and is not someone I would want to be around.

    I would break up with him just because he was so stupid to think you wouldn’t notice them disappearing!

  83. Snoopgirl Avatar

    You know, honestly… this just isn’t that bad. So he was embarassed about something slightly kinky. Who cares? Go back to him and back things normal again. Laugh about it maybe.

    This is how you BUILD trust. For him to trust YOU to love him when he’s vulnerable and a little absurd. (Not if he were, like, evil, but this doesn’t sound like that, not obviously.). Getting through this kind of thing that makes a good relationship

  84. Leggoeggolas Avatar

    I’d walk away, not for the scrunchies but for the flat out lying.

    I hate being lied to more than anything.
