Beware the Pimple-Popper!
"OH MY GOD....you have one RIGHT THERE."
"Umm....okay."
"Let me get it!"
"Babe, no. It'll hurt."
"Just let me get it! Pleaseeeeee baby?!"Have you heard this before? Or maybe you've had similar conversations? This is the conversation that follows when my boyfriend discovers that I have a pimple. Any pimple, anywhere.
Usually I have to jump up and practically run away so that he doesn't try to pop it himself. But if I don't escape in time...POP.
Now, I love my boyfriend with all my heart, but really? He says he "just has to." It's an annoying little quirk that can also be quite painful. He also has this thing about picking at fingernails. I bite mine (I know, nasty little habit), so they're not that long at all. But if they start to grow just a little bit, my boyfriend discovers it somehow and will pick at it forever until I tell him to stop and take care of it myself.
Does your SO have any quirks that you'd rather them not have? Are you in a relationship with a pimple-popper?

I'm a pimple popper. I can't stand looking at them. UGH.
My SO does this too. But I retaliate. ;)
I just could not be in a relationship with someone that tries to pop my pimples. I can't get over how unsanitary that is. It grosses me out.
I was once with a guy who would always crack his knuckles, It drove me crazy.
UGHHHHHH are you serious!?!!!
I don't think I can let someone else have the deciding POWER to that degree and attempts to PERSUADE me that he should be ALLOWED to pop my pimples!! ewugh...I try to talk myself OUT of popping HIS when he asks me.... bleh...
no, I don't think so. generally, i don't even want him to notice that I HAVE one, never mind offer to pop it.
That is damn right nasty. Besides popping zits can lead to scarring. If you want permanent holes in your face then you're on the right track.
@TakingxOverxMe@xanga - agreed
That's... I just can't imagine that. Like I know it's not that uncommon, but it is completely foreign to me.
EWEWEWEWEWEWEW
Popping pimples is so gross and so unsanitary. And I personally hate it when anyone even mentions it when I have it -- Hi, I'm fully aware and self-conscious of the planet on my face, please don't make it any more obvious.
I think the only case this is okay is painful body cysts that either need medical attention or just need to drain. My mother used to help me and my sister when we got them when I was little, but she did it as clean as possible and only to stop us from crying. She still helps my dad, though. But again, I see this more as a medical thing than a gross habit.
Hahaha I'm definitely a pimple popper... my poor ex somehow put up with that for a long time.
Sounds gross, but I am..
It just annoys me looking at em.
I am a pimple popper...
My husband and I pop each others pimples on our backs. The places that we can't reach. We're cool with it...it's helpful and it doesn't gross us out or anything. Popping a pimple on my back is nothing compared to him watching me give birth. lol
In my defense, he usually asks me to pop them. And I would expect him to do it for me when I can't reach them. My boyfriend folds over his ears when he's thinking, which is really weird, and I'd rather he didn't. It looks painful as hell.
@Lydia_Lynne@xanga - Hehe, that's what my husband and I do! Gross or not, it's helpful.
SO gross I can't stand it
The other day my boyfriend asked me to do this. I was freaked out :|
Which is strange, because i used to be in a two year relationship with another person, and i would pop the spots on his back because he couldn't reach. Afterwards, a gentle back tickle :)
but face is just weird.
... thats. never ever.. been an issue.
Haha, that's gross. We'll do it for each other (grudgingly) if they're in some nasty hard place to reach, like on backs or something... But not on faces.
I just find myself fixing his unibrow. It annoyed him at first, but now he's all over it.
@Shy___Away@xanga - haha im really weird i dont pop pimples...i find it gross. but i have a really bad tendency to want to pluck peoples hair...so if my boyfriend has a stray hair somewhere that is just out of place i have to pluck it. painful i know. it bothers him. a ton, but weve been together 8 months now so hes pretty used to it...or just fixes it before i see it. :)
that's SO nasty.
I LOVE popping my boyfriend's pimples and blackheads. Blackheads are especially satisfying. I don't get very many pimples, but if I do happen to have one, he'll spot that sucker and try to pop it, although I rarely let him.
I'm the pimple popper..lol; though he does pop some pimples of mine. Though he doesn't like it too much..lol
hehe my SO gets ingrown hairs when he shaves his face, and i always pop them back out (otherwise it looks like he has acne).
Why can't the zits on the backs be left alone to heal by itself? Strange. I am disgusted at my own zits. I don't want anyone to be as aware of them on me much less offer to touch them. Yes we hate looking at them. Ask the owner to rid of them themselves. And why wouldn't they? Yuck. I know. real mature. But seriously? yuck.
