Do you have a hand held shower attachment? Maybe that's what she's doing in there.

In order for me to assist you with your thread problem, i'm going to need some resources and evidence, such as videos of your girlfriend showering to get the most accurate diagnoses to your solution.

It makes me wonder if she even knows how bad a drought we have? Not that her actions alone are using up all our water, but it's still not right in my opinion.

By the way, we're both in out 40s.
Thoughts?
Something tells me she's doing a great deal more in the shower besides showering.

Actually I wasn't going to bring this up but since there are so much talk about her doing sexual "stuff" in the shower.... Another possibility is that she's been sexually assaulted in the past. Seriously, one thing women have done after such situations is take excessive showers.

Dude WHY are you sitting here complaining instead of reminding her were in a drought and in order to conserve water you shower together. What's the matter with you?

But here is a thought. Go outside and shut off the main. Then go back later and turn it on. Do it randomly just to make her mad like a wet hen. Hopefully you get her mid shampoo, mid soap or Mid rinse. Do it. Do it.

Yeah, my first thought was some sort of psychological issue, for reals.

I am friends with someone who is in his 50's and he's got no idea about hygiene. He brushes his teeth once a day never flosses doesn't wash clothes for weeks at a time and doesn't care if his house is dirty.

He is a peace neck from San Francisco.

I shower twice a ***day
Brush my teeth 3 times per day/ Floss at night
Change underwear and socks everyday
Cologne twice a day (after shower)
Deodorant twice a day
Talc powder on privates and feet twice a day.
Mouthwash at night before I hop into bed.

The ladies down in Tijuana tell me " Hueles Muy Bien Mi Amor , No Como Los Otros Hombres Que Apestan De Mal Olor "

Just so you know, ladies don't really like talc powder on your privates. Just saying.
