Have ya ever done this?
So, I've never asked for this but I need hugs and support. I'm watching DB's place while he is deployed and I was cool on the drive here and up to his front door and when I walked in his place, I smelled the "smell" of HIS place. (You ladies know that familar smell, whether you live with them or not). Its that smell that brings you back to him. So I cried. For about 10 mins and pulled myself together after.
I went to the pool, came back, took a shower and....(have any of you ever done this?) I used his bodywash, used his deodorant AND his Axe body spray and put on one of his tshirts and boxers. I'm at myself right now. Just wanna know if anyone else has done this.

I may not do the exact thing, but I saved the clothes he left on the floor the morning he deployed on a bag to preserve the smell. I take them out when I need to feel like he's here with me. I also bought the exact deoderant he wears and rolled it on the Build-A-Bear he got for me, so I squeeze the heck out of that thing when I need to.

I do have some of his boxers and t shirts that I wear to bed and he left me some of his cologne and I will sometimes spray my sheets with but thats about it. I do go to his house sometimes but only if I need something. He lives with his brother so he is always there so I can't shower but I will always go up to his room and I do know what you are saying about the smell.

I live with DB, and yes, I can say I've done that. I already use the same body wash that he uses just because it's more convenient and costs less if we use the same one (plus I've grown to love the smell). Occasionally I'll spray his side of the bed with his axe body spray.
