I’m still pretty mad at the whole ordeal. My hubsand’s colleague and his wife are both mad at us, and think I humiliated her but I think her lack of common sense is what did it.

My husband and I recently hosted a cookout at our house for his colleagues, he gets along pretty well with most of them and enjoys hosting. Colleague’s wife Julia goes to the hallway bathroom, and comes back. I end up going after her, and notice the toilet is clogged and starting to overflow.

Something large and white is stuck, I use the plunger to unclog it and lo and behold, a very large bloody pad. Julia was the last person to use the bathroom, so I come out and asked her if she tried to flush a pad down the toilet. She got embarrassed and said yes, and I told her she needed to go clean up the mess she made.

There was water all over the floor, with particles of her pad and blood everywhere. I asked her if no one ever taught her not to flush a pad. You don’t flush pads, especially not the extra large ones. Its not like she tried to flush a panty liner or something.

​Julia cried and her husband yelled at me, but who does that? Especially at someone else’s house? Husbands two female colleagues came to my defense, and pretty much said it was stupid of her to do that.

Julia half assed cleaning up her mess, and her and her husband quickly left. All of their colleagues think Julia shouldn’t have done that, but my husband and his coworker are having a whole feud about it.

Its my home and husbands colleague is thinking that I should not have called her out.
