Does he put the toilet seat back down?

[Sloan]

I was lucky.....mine has put the seat down since day 1. No training required![/quote

 

Same here. Yay us!

[~Keira~]

No training for my FI either. However I'm not even sure he lifts up the seat to wee.

 

Gina, I have a suggestion. Keep some cheerios on the toilet tank. Tell him to drop one in and aim for it while peeing with the seat down.

 

Worked like a charm when my nephews were being potty trained. No reason it can't work on a grown man. lol.

this thread made me laugh. my FI puts it down and the lid as well and yells at me if I forget! seriously. his reasoning is our 2 giants dogs and his fear of them using it as a water bowl. I have never seen them do this, the only come in the bathroom while we shower to guard us lol. but when my friends come over he has the nerve to yell at them too. if only he were this meticulous about other things in the house.

LOL, I'm not sure he would like that so much...but a good thought!

EDSROSA - I'm glad I"m not the only one with a sig other that won't put it down!

There are some very lucky ladies here, I don't think my FI even knows how to put down a toilet seat! It irritated the hell out of me when we first moved in, but I guess I have just learned to live with it. I have yet to fall in (finger crossed).

My DH doesn't put the seat down either. I've just gotten used to it. I'm really careful when I'm half asleep because I know it will be up.

[*Lo*]

Make a sign and put it at a level that he sees when flushing! It can say, "If you don't put the seat down, your wife will have a frown" Or insert your current marital status, the nickname he has for you, etc. Or something to that extent.

 

I had this issue, I made signs and haven't had a problem since!! He says it works better than me nagging him...and it did!

[tylersgirl]

FI always puts the toilet seat down. He NEVER changes the toilet paper roll though, haha! Drives me nuts

How gross to think that when you are flushing your stuff away some of the particles can fly up into your bathroom...that includes your towel that you dry your hands on! Yikes!! Maybe if you pose it to him that way, he might also want to put it down?

Us too. Ginalyn, tell your dh that particles of whatever is in the toilet fly out at about a 6 foot radius if you leave the lid up when you flush. This includes onto your toothbrushes if they are out! You should always flush after putting the lid down.

How funny! He usually puts it down, but I did fall in once in the middle of the night. EWWW!
