"  It&amp;#039;s nice to share your bed with your guy. But it&amp;#039;s not as nice to share your bathroom.  When it comes to peeing in front of your significant other, I give the whole debate a big &amp;quot;hell no.&amp;quot; On the subject of this specific etiquette, I am pretty much a bathroom prude (unlike every girl on &amp;quot;Girls,&amp;quot; I still run the water when my girlfriends are even in the room most of the time). When becoming comfortable in a new relationship, he&amp;#039;s going to see you without make-up. He&amp;#039;s probably going to see you cry, and he&amp;#039;s probably going to see you do a lot of things you don&amp;#039;t want him to. But here&amp;#039;s something you can (hopefully) control unless he accidentally bursts the bathroom door down: He doesn&amp;#039;t have to see you pee.  The toilet isn&amp;#039;t a real-life throne. It is not an attractive place to perch. What you are doing on there isn&amp;#039;t adorable. And yes, I realize he is going to become more than comfortable enough to pee in front of you (ew, don&amp;#039;t remind me), but this is actually a double standard I don&amp;#039;t mind upholding. At least for myself. Not because I don&amp;#039;t think he&amp;#039;d mind seeing me with my pants around my ankles, but because I do.  I&amp;#039;ve run into more than my fair share of ladies who disagree with me and think it&amp;#039;s perfectly fine to pop a squat in front of guys they are in a variety of levels of relationships with from newly dating to fully committed.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been peeing in front of my boyfriend since we first met,&amp;quot; says Jenna, 25. &amp;quot;It just doesn&amp;#039;t seem like a big deal. He pees in front of me. It&amp;#039;s not like I&amp;#039;d ever do the other thing in front of him.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I definitely pee in front of boys,&amp;quot; insists Lizzie, 26. &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s a part of the boarding school culture. We had these rest-room stalls but we never closed the doors.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s impractical to not pee in front of your boyfriend if you are ever serious about marrying them. And if you&amp;#039;re going to have a child with that person? Like, forget it. Do you know what happens then? Ugh. It&amp;#039;s just peeing!&amp;quot; says Christi, 27. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve peed on the side of the road in front of my boyfriend, everything. I just won&amp;#039;t fart in front of him. That&amp;#039;s the only romance-killer.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I always tell myself I won&amp;#039;t pee in front of him, but then I always do,&amp;quot; says Victoria, 27. &amp;quot;If you date anyone for more than a few months, you spend so much time with them it just happens. Traveling, spending the night. I&amp;#039;m not a Barbie. Plus, I drink a lot of Diet Coke.&amp;quot;  At least I have one person on my side:  &amp;quot;I lock the door AND run the water, and I tell him if he comes in, he&amp;#039;s sleeping on the floor. There&amp;#039;s some things I just don&amp;#039;t want him to see. He, on the other hand, will hold full conversations with me while peeing with the door wide open,&amp;quot; says Anne, 23.  Are you free-flowing? Or do you, like me, keep it under lock and key?  Want more sexy stories from Carson? Follow her on Twitter. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
