There's more too smell than being clean. Some simply have a stronger smell than others. Deodorant? Hell, its easy to sweat through that stuff. Sadly, antiperspirant is really not effective on me, so I have to lay on the smell good. Then, everybody says that it affects their allergies/I smell "too good". So, I have shitty options here. Even with common bathing and everything, I get kinda screwed over.

Showering every day is bad for your skin, and completely unnecessary. 10 minutes?! What are you doing in ther....nevermind!

Not too much to elaborate on. She came home pissed off about work and got drunk, I became the only available target, went downhill from there quick.
If the roles were reversed, you would - rightfully - be in jail right now. There is no excuse for her despicable behavior, and there are too many good women in the world for you to put up with that sort of abuse.

Good riddance.

I start every morning with a 10 minute shower, most of it just standing there thinking and enjoying the hot water.

Expanding on the smell being more than hygene, I've known a few Indian coworkers in my time who mostly eat home-cooked food full of spices, and it gives them a very distinctive odor, even though they keep up with their cleaning.

I get up at six fifty every school day (well my mom gets me up, alarms are useless to me) and take a shower to wake up. Boiling water wakes you p like coffee and doesn't smell.

Appropriate at this juncture.

I don't get it. What went wrong? Are you stuck with no way out? What's the name of the game you're playing?

Seriously? I should think letting the skin grease that everyone has stay on would increase the likelihood of zits. Which are undoubtedly bad for your skin.

It's not unnecessary if your goal is to be clean. My hair is long enough that it becomes noticeably dirty if it doesn't get washed daily.

It's girls that do that in the shower, not guys. :wink:
