My boyfriend and I are in a silent standoff over a spider in our bathroom.
By @sophiee · Am I the Villain
It's been two days. We've just closed the door and are now exclusively using the guest bathroom until one of us caves and deals with it.
The full story
okay this is the dumbest fight ever but i'm committed now. on tuesday night i went to take a shower and saw a HUGE spider on the wall. i'm talking big. i screamed, my bf (26) ran in, saw it, and physically recoiled. he promised he'd kill it but... he did not. it's now thursday and we've both just silently agreed to abandon our master bathroom. neither of us has mentioned it. we're just pretending we prefer the tiny guest bathroom. i think this has become a battle of wills. am i awful if i just wait for him to finally give in?

@idkman — i feel like this isn't actually about the spider lol
@ariaok — A man's job is to protect his home, period.
@seanagain — crying
@kayla — Can't you just spray it from a distance?
@softnomaybe — this is textbook weaponized incompetence and it's not a good sign.
