My SO and I both live on the edge of the city and commute 40 minutes to work in the city center. I usually wake up 20 minutes earlier than him to feed our animals, give them their medications, read my emails etc. I then take a quick shower and finish getting ready (makeup, etc.) at my desk. 15-20 minutes before we have to leave for work, he says he needs to poop and has to unplug the lighting where I'm getting ready...which unfortunately needs to plug into the bathroom(old, weirdly shaped apartment). This happens nearly every day. I have to stop what I'm doing for 10-15 minutes, so he can poop with the door closed. I then either don't have time to finish getting ready or am late to work.
I only spend 15-20 minutes or so at my desk in the morning, is it really too much to ask for him to poop before or after?!? What do I do? (yes, I have told him this, however, he doesn't seem to realize he is being inconsiderate.)

Isn't this problem solved by power strip or extension cord or something?

No you don't understand, their apartment is shaped weird.

Tl;dr my boyfriend likes to poop around me or be around me when I poop and I hate it.

I'm currently on a camping trip with a small group of college friends. This group includes 4 girls and 4 guys including me. I've been crushing on one of the girls since we met at college and we're very good friends. We text each other a lot and it was actually her preference to share a tent with me. Naturally I was very happy about this because she's very cute and I like her. Btw, our tent has a divider that runs down the middle so you cannot see the person next to you, allowing for more privacy.

Anyway so the first day nothing happened. We all went to sleep at around midnight and everything was okay. The next day we all retreated to our tents once again at night but I couldn't sleep so I was up playing games on my phone. Apart from my crush and I , everyone else was already asleep at this point. So I'm just minding my own business and playing games when I suddenly I hear this faint noise coming from her side. I couldn't make it out at first because it was so quiet but then it got louder and they were clearly sexual moans. I genuinely thought I was hallucinating and convinced myself that there's no way I'm seriously hearing this. At one point she got loud enough for me to hear fully and it felt like an eternity. I left the tent to get some cold fresh air and sat on the grass for 10 minutes

We've stayed here for 4 days now and she's been doing this for the past 3 nights. I literally cannot sleep at night when I hear her. It's so drat distracting I can't even hear my own thoughts. I have to go and get fresh air every time I start hearing her. Even when she's done I'm still fully awake and cannot sleep for another 3 hours and by that time the sun is up. When I wake up in the morning after having slept for 2-4 hours my friends ask me why I look I so tired.

What's even more terrifying is that one morning she asked me "did you hear that last night?" I almost got a heart attack and asked her what she meant. Of course she was talking about something entirely irrelevant and I was so relieved. She gave me a wtf look and asked me why I'm being so jumpy and weird.

How the hell do I even tell her to keep it down without seeming like the biggest creep on the planet? I can't remember the last time I got a good nights sleep. It's driving me absolutely mad. How do I go about doing this without her thinking I'm a perverted loser? Is there even a way or am I hosed for the next few days??

TL;DR I can hear my crush masturbate every night and it's loud enough to prevent me from sleeping or even thinking. Should I tell her to keep it down or is that the best way to ruin this relationship?

We've been dating for a little under a year and things have been going pretty well. Not as great lately, but pretty well.
Some gross details ahead:

I was raised in a household where it wasn't considered normal to talk about what goes on in the bathroom unless there was an issue, like you were sick or something. My GF's family is a little more open about these things. I've only recently become comfortable farting around her, but I really really don't like talking about what I do on the toilet. I just don't see it as being any of her business. We don't live together, but we usually spend all weekend together and sleep over at one of our places. I usually try to refrain from pooping when we're together unless I know that I can shower afterwards. It's just more comfortable to me to let it all go when I get home on Monday. I guess that she's picked up on this, because she's made some comments recently, usually concerning the fact that I'm not comfortable with my body around her.

It kind of escalated this weekend. I had some uhh, digestive issues, and spent a longer time than usual on the toilet. I guess that she was concerned, because when I got out, she started asking me all sorts of questions about what went on in there. It isn't like I am 100% opposed to talking about what goes on, but I found it really intrusive to talk about what had just gone on in there and I told her to stop. She said that "we need to be able to talk about our bodies if we're going to be together" and said that my lack of trust and comfort were hurting our relationship. She also said that there was no way that she would let me have anal sex with her (which I want as both a giver and a receiver more than she does as either) if I couldn't talk about poop.

She came up with an idea which I loving hate. She originally wanted us to watch each other poop, but I was so adamantly opposed to that that she backed down to something else. After I go, I'm supposed to just leave it there without flushing and invite her in to look at it, and she's supposed to do the same for me. I'm not at all comfortable with this. Ok I get that maybe I'm a little bit too shy and maybe I'm wrong to be uncomfortable with natural body functions, but this seems really extreme and like a violation of my privacy. I don't want to look at her poo poo, and I don't see why she needs to look at mine.

Am I right to think that this is hosed up, or is she right to think that I have a problem that needs fixing? Most of all, how do I communicate to her that I recognize that she has valid points, but I think that her solutions are terrible and make me uncomfortable?

I think they only own one single lamp and have to move it around from room to room, leaving most of the house in total darkness at all times.

is it just me or does this seem like a fairly obvious signal to him that he's just completely missing

It seems like it's out of a comedy movie, I can only imagine the nonverbal cues that the guy totally missed while she said "did you hear me last night".

Saying "we should bone in our tent tonight" or something similar seems like it'd be pretty foolproof

It's been a while since I was an oblivious teenager but after masturbating loudly fails twice in a row I'd think plain English would be plan B. Maybe combine them, get him all worked up with sex noises and then say "reddit user, I know you can loving hear me in there, are we gonna gently caress or what"

Khorne posted:

She wants him to take the initiative and has done everything short of suspending herself from the tent ceiling with her legs spread for him to accidentally walk his dick into her.

I've been with my girlfriend for 7 years, and everything was great for the longest time. But a few years ago she started being really obsessed with heavy metal (which is something I never liked that much). Some of her friends were into it, so I was like, okay, great. I don't mind what kind of music people listen to. But things started getting weird.

She's into these bands from Norway and Sweden which play really messed up, dark black metal music. She got really obsessed with the band Mayhem and their singer "Dead" who killed himself a long time ago. It started out as a mild interest last year and now it's become a full-blown life-consuming obsession. She has a webpage about Dead and talks about him to me multiple times a day. Sometimes I see her talking online with other fans and the conversations are creepy as hell.

She has dreams about him supposedly every night (which I sort of doubt) and always tries to talk to me about the dreams. They're often sexual and make me really uncomfortable. I don't give a poo poo if he's dead (pun. sigh. whatever.) It makes me weirded out and uncomfortable as hell to hear her talking sexually about another guy.
I don't get it. A I don't even know how to explain it. I can't explain him because it's WEIRD He's greasy, wears strange makeup, has a horrible voice, and killed himself years ago. This might be really petty, but it's making me feel like I'm not good enough and she spends more time thinking about him than me. But that isn't my biggest concern. The whole thing is just messed up.
She has a photo of HIS CORPSE on the wall with his head blown open . Apparently when he committed suicide a band member took a photo? I don't know. I don't f***ing know

She has wet dreams about him and talks about how he's the only person who understands her

She has literally hundreds of photos of him on her computer, quotes his songs all the time, etc

His music is terrible and I just don't get it.
?????????
She didn't even know this person existed when we started dating, and now it's taken over her life. I really love her but this is ruining our relationship and I feel like she's a different person. It's gotten a lot worse over the past year. I'd say it's getting progressively worse even over the past few months. I'm really concerned because such a sudden change in personality, especially about something so messed up, is a RED FLAG right?
Tl;dr: My girlfriend is obsessed with this super creepy goth guy who killed himself and I have no idea wtf to think or do; It's ruining our relationship

Oh man I like this boy how can I get his attention???

Maybe I could say "hey I like you" to him? No way that's crazy!!! Better just go to town masturbating in the tent, that'll do it.
