What are your thoughts on your spouse spending extended time in the bathroom using their phone?

    Vaguely annoying, and it makes me worry about their rectum/hemorrhoids, but…we have two toilets in the house for a reason. (And that reason is my partner’s affinity for spending extended time in the bathroom on their phone.)

    If I noticed I would assume he’s playing a game on his phone.

    I could never blame him—as it is also where I lock myself away from kids and/or responsibilities to get “excusable” alone time…if only for a few long minutes….😉

    When my husband was doing that he had a hidden porn addiction. He also developed hemorrhoids. Lol

    I personally think it’s rather odd to play on your phone in the bathroom. I did grow up in a household of 6 people and only 1 bathroom, so the bathroom is for bathroom stuff only, not to read the news or other activities.

    As long as they aren’t hiding from responsibility, and nobody needs to use it.

    They’re probably taking a massive dump and doom-scrolling on TikTok or Instagram.

    My ex did that and it was a horrendous porn addiction. Now he’s still doing the same and he’s remarried to someone else. Good riddance loser

    Annoyed if we’re parenting together. Just be direct if you need more time to yourself but lying and saying you need 25min to poop is enraging. Literally if you need this much time you need to go to the doctor. We both likely want moments of peace- how about sharing that aloud and then supporting each other?!

    We have separate bathrooms so no one gets a say either which way

    My ex had a huge porn problem. So, usually that

    My boss does this, sometimes going in to use the washroom before I’ve actually started for the day. I started charging him for that time, because I’m the one looking after the kids in that time anyways.

    Why would I care? I constantly zone out on the toilet.

    That doesn’t happen. He doesn’t even have a smartphone lol. He just goes, poops and comes back.

    He never has. If he did, I would assume he has a stomach issue and he will usually tell me about it. I find it odd that anyone would need to be on the toilet for 15+ mins.

    Huge pet peeve. I don’t even bring my phone into the washroom with me. There’s no need. Get in and get out. Youre addicted, put the phone down

    huge pet peeve and an even bigger turn off (unless they’re having issues or are sick obviously)

    I’m a woman and do that.

    He did this for many many years, found out he was using the time in the bathroom to have a full blown 1 year emotional affair with someone from the other side of the world. Told him no phones in the bathroom if you wanna reconcile. But obviously didnt stop him, still found a way to have another emotional (multiple) affair(s)

    I do the same thing. He takes half the time I do.

    I worry about his rectal integrity. It’s not healthy.

    It’s really annoying when I have to go to the bathroom or if he said he was gonna do something with me after he goes to the bathroom and then its 20-30 min later. Otherwise I dont gaf if it doesn’t effect me. Thats everyone’s personal private business. If hes addicted to porn it doesn’t show because he still wants to have sex with me all the time and its not like hes into some wild kinky shit that im not into. Like I said, if it doesn’t effect me I dont care.
