WHO buys the condoms?

Contributor: Rossie Rossie
Who buys the condoms, you or your partner? When we're shopping at Costco, my husband always makes ME pick up and pay for the condoms, he's too embarrassed to do the task.

My husband can buy the condoms, but he has no problem with using whatever I pick up.

We dont and even back in high school I didn't. BUT Ihave to tell a cute funny story from yesterday. My husband and I were in walmart in the fish tank isle which is right down from the fem. Sups. And condoms. As we were standing there we notice the cute young couple standing about as far back as you could from the condoms to still be able to read the boxes but obviously looking at them. They kept glancing around and were nervous as a cocaine dealer at a police drug dog training convention. She would lean in close to him and say something and he would scoot close, look, and then jump back like it was a snake. By this point we were looking but trying to not be obvious. He finally turned and walked away and she scooted up to reaching distance. She looked like she was going to pass out as she reached out and snatched a little 3 pack box from the shelf and tried to hide it in her palms as she scurried away like a squirrel with a nut. It was so cute to see because you know they are so new to sex and so innocent. I remember those days way back when. Good for them. Hope they have an awesome time together learning all the pleasures in life.

I am male and I buy condoms a hundred at a time. It's inexpensive and it lasts forever.

I'm a female and I buy them! I forgot to check that it's because he's embarrassed! He has a social anxiety disorder, though, so it's not uncommon for me to have to do most of the shopping anyways.

Now I buy them online in bulk, which is a lot cheaper and less hassle!

Where's the option for "My partner buys the condoms"?

We made a deal that he would be responsible for the condoms because I'm responsible for my birth control pills. But I have no problem buying them. Sometimes I grab a pack on my way over to his house if we ran out and he hasn't had a chance to go to the store.

I don't have much of a preference. I just make sure that I talk to a new partner about it before any awkward "oh, you didn't bring condoms either?" moments.

we don't use condoms, fluid-bonded. but when i was single i'd always get them free at local planned parenthood or AVOL (aids volunteers of lexington) or local kink shops.

It's something I feel like both partners should take equal responsibility for.

Either one of us will buy them. But we only use them around the time I ovulate, so one box can last us a while.

Oops, that choice slipped my mind, good thing I did put "Others".

Well, I don't have a partner, so I don't use them. Though if I did and he was shy, I wouldn't mind picking them up. I'd prefer it if we both could do it, though.

He normally goes and gets them and carries them, mostly because we live in the town I grew up in and see tons of disapproving people who go to my old church.

I usually buy them as I like to experiment, looking for the ideal condom. The majors keep changing their types and styles.

When we were dating, he bought them most of the time. Every once in awhile I would. Once we got married, I bought them if we were going to use them.

We don't really use them unless I'm on an antibiotic and since we're engaged &want a child we haven't used them even then for awhile because if something should happen, then so be it. We aren't trying to have yet but condoms just take away too much feeling to both of us. But when we have used them either of us would buy them, if we were together at the store though I'd just let him

We only use condoms when my wife forgets to take her pill. Which is in her best interest for non-reproductive effects.
