I've grown up hating showers. Ever since i was kid, I would fight to get into the tub, and I grew up like that.

Now, I've checked many yahoo answers on this, and people seem pretty insulting and disgusted by it. Is it really disgusting? From what I see, humans have lived many, many years without bathing. In fact, if I do remember correctly, the Romans bathed only twice a year. I may be wrong, however.

It's not that I'm justifying that I don't take a shower. And no, I don't exactly sit in my own filth. When you imagine a person that doesn't shower, you imagine flies and everything coming off of their body as a putrid smell and visual.

I actually smell pretty good. On top of that, I do take care of my self. Even when I exercise, I skip showers.

Sadly, I don't remember my last shower, also.

Now my question is; Is a shower really needed? Give me your honesty opinion. I'll ignore everyone else who insults me, because I could not care less.

Extra info:

- I don't wash my hair, and it styles better than if I lather in all of those disgusting products. Only time I ever wash it is when I can feel the grease building up, then I take a shower mainly to wash it.

- I have a significant other that I've confided in about this, and she said she would have never noticed. Apparently I don't smell awful.

- I hate the smell of chemicals and cologne. At best, I'll spray it a few times and leave it be.

- After a shower, I hate the clean feeling. It's disgusting.

First off, the chemistry between us was amazing. Her opinion and mine. There was no issues for the relationship that we had, and she honestly said that she wants to continue it; In the future.

I was shocked to say the least, but that's not enough information to properly explain what's going on.

She is bisexual, and I am bisexual. Neither of us have had any experience with the same sex, and we're both curious. We would talk about it frequently, and we have had our own fantasies.

Not to say that we weren't having our own sexual relationship. There wasn't an issue (at least I thought).

After about six months of a serious relationship, she suddenly told me that she was having trouble with her curiosities. She told me that she thinks she's a lesbian

I didn't explode on her. I didn't yell, nor fight. I simply asked a few questions as to why she thinks that.

Her response was simple, "I'm not attracted to men. I have never been attracted to men. They are simply unappealing."

She then insisted that we take some time away from each other, and explore our options.

My fear is that she's going to find another person, date 'her', and fall in love. Then get strung between me and her.

What's strange is that she still tells me that she loves me, but she needs some time to understand herself.

What do I do? As a man that really loves his girlfriend, I can't help but be worried and depressed. Should I simply end it? Should I wait? All of my choices end badly for her and me.

I don't want to lose her.

What should I do?
