I guess it wouldn't be a true Friday the 13th if something didn't happen. I pulled up the gas station and saw my STBXWH standing at the counter. I had what felt like an out of body experience just waiting to see if he came out with a giant bottle of booze. Frozen.
I stepped out of my car as he was leaving and he asked me who I smelled good for - because, today, I TOOK A SHOWER!!! No make up, hair is not done, nothing. Just a good old fashioned shower.
I did get out in time to speak with him because he owes money on something that I've been trying to get him off of. But that was all he could say to me. Still paranoid. Still unkempt and covered in hair.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it's a duck.

Either that, or you were REALLY stinky before. 
Good on you for showering! Go get em!!
And yeah, he's totally paranoid. They do it to themselves. Could you imagine being in his head for a day... Ugh how exhausting.

I have my days when I'm preparing for exams like the 5 I had this week, sometimes I forget...but since I live alone now, meh, I'll shower when I need to. But yeah, he's crazy! And no, I would not want to be in his head for a day. Sheesh.

Mostly not related, but sorta...
My STBXW and I once had an argument and she was trying to taunt me while we were doing IHS, albeit very poorly. She was trying to tell me how terrible it must be for me to be around her, listening to her talk to the kids in the morning and smelling her fresh out of the shower.
I honestly had never noticed how she smelled fresh out of the shower, so I assume that she was projecting.
My GF loves this story. Whenever I take a shower, she always smiles and tell me how much she loves my fresh out of the shower smell.

Yaknow, I'm gonna be 100% honest...
There's nothing quite like the smell of a freshly showered woman. Not bathed, like, sitting in a bath, but freshly showered. Even when I had my two or three girlfriends before my wife and I met, I always loved when they would be fresh out of the shower and I caught that scent; clean skin before any lotions or creams or oils or whatever. Maybe it's pheromones, maybe it's just me, I don't know. All I know is that it's intoxicating.
Anyways, t/j over.
