SERIOUS Lack of Personal Hygiene.

A grown man, 41 years old-should not have to be told to shower!

It used to embarrass me that The Boyfriend has a chronic problem taking a frigging shower on a regular basis.  Now, it just disgusts me!

I found this short description which hits the nail on the head where The Boyfriend is concerned.

Self-Centered. A person who neither cares about the effect their lack of hygiene has on the people around them nor cares about how others perceive them to be indicates a very stubborn and self-centered personality. They do what they want, when they want, and how they want, regardless of what other people say.

I have tried everything with him.  Being nice, dropping hints, harassing him about it, being a bitch about it.  Nothing works!  I used to keep track and there have been times where he has only showered once in 4-6 weeks.  ONCE!  Its utterly disgusting, nasty and I don't even want to be around him.  For a couple of years he wasn't sleeping in the bed because of it.  I told him that its fucking nasty and I didn't want him to get my sheets and blankets filthy.  He had been sleeping the in reclining chair until last week.  He's having back problems and apparently the bed feels better.  I don't see how.  The damn thing is older than dirt & shot to hell!  Forget about a sex life.  Definitely NOT attracted with him like this...quite the opposite.

He had been getting a bit better about showering more often.  Now its usually once a week.  Who knows how long that will last though.  Plus, its still disgusting!  A grown man with a physically demanding job needs to shower more than once a damn week!  His hair and scalp is so nasty!  He gets rashes here and there and I'm convinced its some kind of bacteria from lack of hygiene.

Oh, and by the way...it is 11/11/11...pretty trippy 'eh?  :P
