Boyfriend follows me in the bathroom and stays every time. Is this normal guy behavior?

[Anonymous]

He would watch while I shower or use the toilet and refuses to leave the bathroom. He also follows me everywhere else. Its irritating.

You are with a guy who has control issues, and this is not normal, nor is it healthy or safe to be with someone like this. Refusing to give you privacy of any kind in normal situations is bad enough, but to refuse privacy during personal moments in the bathroom is NOT okay. I was in a situation like this, and the guy turned out to be a harassing jerk after I broke up with him, and he was pretty much borderline abusive toward me, all of it to try and get control over me. The time I had the door locked and using the toilet had him banging on it like a gorilla demanding to be let in. We were a long-distance couple and there were only few times we had together in person, and I was totally disgusted that he felt the need to deny me privacy.

But anyway, that's my situation and the only other time I've heard of this was from another friend of mine who had such a controlling boyfriend who did the same thing only she chose to allow him to do it. It's a pretty severe controlling thing to do. Stand up for yourself and let him know this is NOT okay with you, and you refuse to be monitored like a child or worse, a dog who needs supervision. The nerve. Stuff like this pisses me off.

haha lol kinda weird to watch you poop... i can see shower though. but why would he want to watch, listen, and smell you poop?

[guyintac]

That's... weird. Is it a fetish? I'm not surprised you're irritated, you should talk to him about it.

[Asker]

I don't think it's a fetish...

[Streamhopper]

Wait, what? That's kinda creepy. I don't blame you for being annoyed. Have you told him that?

[Asker]

Yes. Still does it.

[Streamhopper]

Ok, that's even more creepy. No concept of personal space. Definite controlling behavior. Everything else in your relationship is normal?

[Asker]

Yep.

[Streamhopper]

I've got nothing. And that doesn't happen very often, so congratulations. I honestly cannot explain rationally that kind of behavior.

[NYkid27]

I think that's really weird. I like being around my girlfriend but I'd never invade her personal space like that. Everyone needs some privacy and alone time.

[Anonymous]

That's creepy to be honest. Maybe tell him upfront that he can't do that. Don't say "can you not do that" but be firm and be like "you can't do that"

[napoleonebonaparte]

I love to see girls in their toilet moment... but everywhere is a bit annoying...

[swiftsaver602]

I'm not gonna lie that creeps me out :-/

[Anonymous]

Sounds like that start of a jealous and abusive relationship

[Darthxon]

It's not normal behavior if it's constantly

[Anonymous]

Even when doing a number 2? He doesn't trust you.

[Asker]

Yep, even when I do number 2. If that's his reason that's kind of ridiculous cause I can't cheat on him in our bathroom with him home lol. I don't see why he wouldn't trust me.

[Anonymous]

Not normal and kind of scary to imagine

[Asker]

Not scary, just weird and uncomfortable.

[HoodieGuy]

That sounds like an unhealthy relationship.

[SEIFON]

Maybe, he wants to lick ur pussy or ur ass

[Anonymous]

Doesn't trust you

[Asker]

What? Its not like I can cheat on him with someone in our bathroom lol.
