The floor guys are working on the women’s bathroom (MY bathroom) today. This means I can’t not use the women’s bathroom. I have had to pee since 8:45 and I think I may burst soon. Yes, I could use the men’s bathroom? Well, I would, but it’s right next to the women’s and I don’t want anyone to hear me pee. You heard me right. I am sitting here, suffering from a full bladder, and instead of just going to the boy’s bathroom, I’m trying to hold out for my lunch break where I can run and use the bathroom at Target. All because I don’t want anyone to hear me pee.
I’m such a neurotic freak it’s scary sometimes.








I’m the same way… Theres a bathroom in my office with only 2 stalls, but if someone comes in while I”m in there? I won’t go. I’ll wait until they walk out of the bathroom before I do my business.
I would never make it until lunch. Did you know holding causes tract infections? No one needs that. Soon, you will cross over into, “I don’t care I have to peenoonecanstopmegetoutofmywayohmygod!”
Good luck.
C’mon, just turn on the sink full blast. That’s all they’ll be able to hear.
Really.
(but then, us guys are “proud” of being able to pee, must go back to caveman days)
I refuse to let anyone hear me pee…I will hold it until the end of time if I had to!
I am so with you. I don’t like people to hear me pee either. Even though everyone does it. I don’t care. And, I can’t *ahem* eliminate solid waste in someone else’s house. So when we travel, I’m pretty much in agony. When we moved to our new apartment? you get the picture. go to Target
what if someone hears you pee at target? You need to go home, sweetie, and pee in complete solitude.
I must be just as neurotic as you! I can’t pee if I think someone can hear me either! In high school, I used to get teased about my “shy” bladder. Now, that I’m in the grown-up world, I just turn the faucet on full-blast and do what I must! : )
I was totally that way until I got pregnant. Now I can’t control it and- when i gotta go, I gotta go (and I gotta go about a frillion times a day) even if people are standing around just waiting to hear me pee. I also poop in places other than my own home now, which I NEVER thought I would EVER be able to do.
It’s amazing how much pregnancy ruins your sence of decency.
you can’t not use it? and why don’t you just turn on the water faucet?
I physically can’t pee if someone (other than my husband) can hear me. It’s horrible. I can so relate to holding it until the coast is clear though.
this is why I trained all my children to use the facilities anywhere we went, no matter what same for me. I refuse to be uncomfortable and ABSOLUTELY refuse to have whiny mouths stating they can’t go until get home…
good luck!
You’ll make yourself ill and end up restricting your life..I hope you get relief soon
I use to be like that in high school, but now that I’m 25 and been through college I’ve mostly grown out of it because I found a trick to it. If you turn on the sink and go in the stall everyone knows what you’re doing, but if you flush the toilet at the same time you pee everyone hears the toilet flush instead of you peeing and they think that you just wanted to flush the toilet before you used it.
