Couples: Your Toothbrush

a year ago by swade2569 to c/asklemmy

Had a hilarious moment and discussion which made me wonder how others feel about it. My partner and I share a sonicare but have our own heads we swap out.

I come out of the shower as she finishes brushed teeth and I notice she’s using my head. I smirk and say that’s my toothbrush.

She does a double take and says “not only is it yours but I absentmindedly removed mine to put yours on it!”

We laughed and discussed how much we already share and it’s probably not a big deal.

Then I admitted “well I get up way before you most mornings and I’ve accidentally used yours a couple times. She feigned shock and I said “when I do, I quickly rinse it thoroughly with hot water and put it back.”

Lighthearted morning so far. Have you confessed to using a partner’s toothbrush? How did that go?

Once your tongue has been in somebody else's mouth I feel like sharing a toothbrush is not a huge deal

Difference is, we're not using our tongues to pry rotten food stuffs from each other's gums.

If we did we could save the money we spend on toothbrushes.
