Quick question. This morning my bf was making coffee so he used the water from the Brita pitcher (so yes it was filtered water) and he had a little left over, he didn't want to waste it so he poured the rest into their bowl. Now I know it actually is no big deal and a trace amount of coffee from the stains in the pot wouldn't do anything harmful or anything at all really, but I still wouldn't do it, mainly b/c I'm just ocd and would prefer to know that all their water is coming from one container. Of course my bf thinks I'm nuts and I'm not disagreeing with that. But part of my "defense" was 'I know there's others out there (out there meaning EBN) that would see what I'm saying'. So he said 'alright go ahead ask then, I'm curious'


Is there anyone else as OCD as me or am I just crazy? :)

I totally get it as I'd be the same way. My hubby though? Ha! He'd take the same stance as your BF.

Water from the Brita pitcher should be fine as you say, it's filtered water. When we were waiting for our house to sell and move into our new one we lived in an apartment for awhile and we gave our bullies filtered water from a Brita filter. Then we installed one of the Pur water filters to the faucet and used that also.

I am just as guilty for being neurotic! We know the littlest things can cause issues and others just dont get it sometimes!!! :hug:

I am a lot like you. My husband thinks I am crazy for wiping my dogs butt after going potty and cleaning their paws after walks but the thought of the stuff they drag inside the house is just gross :excited:

Thank you everyone! I feel much better! My bf still thinks I'm crazy, but at least I have back up now ;)

I agree...Normally neurotic sounds about right

My hubby calls me the grey haired lady because I keep getting more and more grey hairs. It's from worrying and being neurotic about my bullies and the pups, everything must always be clean, so I deem you perfectly normal :)
