i spend about 30-45 mins in the shower and i used to think it was way too long a time to be in there. BUT lastnite i was talking 2 someon & she told me that she would "just" jump for a quick shower and call me back. she did, but after ONE AND A HALF HOUR, after i fell asleep, imagine what would have happend if she was taking a bath! what exactly she was doing?!Anyway...whats the maximum time you spend in the shower and why?

fifteen in summer, because i take a shower everyday, then i don't need too much time. besides it is not comfortable to take a shower in summer. 1 hour in winter, because i take a shower every 3 days, then i have to spend too much time, and it is comfortable in the warm water, and sometimes i will take a hot steam bath. then i can have a sound sleep.

Ha ha ha........I really have no idea about what she was doing during her one and half hour bath.......lol I am also found of just enjoying shower, even after I have finshed taking bath... just to remain under the shower is fun. In winter I like to stay some extra time under hot shower, while in summer I love to be under cold shower as long as I can. Here in our country we pay heavy bills for water, so my hubby is a big obstical between me and my long baths....But over all I think, it is not more than 20 to 25 minutes.

For me, a shower it,s to clean myself, nothing more, so it doesnt take long. It can be between 10-20min. Of course I spend more time in a bath because for me it's not only to wash myself , but als to relax a little bit :)

Hello my friend. My average time at the shower is 20 to 30 minutes maybe more, I spend relatively long time, can't just finish in 5 or 10 minutes, I guess people who spend long time, they probably don't shower but they take a bath or let's say bubble bath they simply relax inside the bath tub with some music, drinks or maby books. Thanx for your lovely post my dear friend.

I spend 25-30 mins in the shower, but this depends on the water if the water is clean I spend 30mins in the shower but if the water is not clean 10mins is a very quick time for me to take a shower. Maybe you're thinkin' why I talking about the clean and dirty water, well I live her in the subdivision that the water is not clean, they have this machine to sip the water underground called deepwheel unfortunately the result sometimes is not good. We dont use this water for cooking only for washing clothes and in shower but most often I still rinse myself with mineral water just to wash away the dirt that i got from this water. So I cant spend so time in the shower thinking of the water that runs into my body is untrusty.

I'm a mom with 2 kids and I usually spend around 15 minutes in the shower. But once in a while, I do allow myself to spend an hour on myself.

I can take a shower in a hurry in 5 minutes and the longest is at most 20 minutes. I don't play with it cause I am such a nut over our bills, the whole time I am in there I see dollar signs going down the drain, LOL. Now I have told people I am going to take a shower, just so I can get off the phone then call them later. I do this with my mom cause she gets mad if I take cleaning the house over her, but a shower is ok. Weird is it not? LOL

well.. i believe that we all have different concepts on what is a " quick shower" and what is a "bath". for me a quick shower would literally be a quick shower. just getting myself wet and a little soap then rinse it off and im done. i usually do this whenever i wake up late and am late for class. however if i take a bath it would last at least for an hour because i still have many rituals..

I usually spend about 10 minutes in the shower. But once a week I treat myself to a nice long hot soaking bath.

Since one of the elements is out on our hot water heater, about the longest shower I could take would be twenty minutes before the hot water ran out. I generally am in the shower about ten minutes; just long enough to wash and condition my hair and wash my body. I do love the feel of the hot water though! :-)

Hi, honestly speaking i dont get more than around 5-10 minutes in the shower, as my work shedule is such. After sending off the kids to school early morning, i hardly get a few minutes time in the shower as i have to rush for my work too, as i have the morning shift,so that i am also back with my kis in time for their lunch etc. So mornings are rushed and i have to make do with those 5-10 minutes that i get. But then i compensate having my warm shower just beofre sleeping, and thats around 15-20 minutes, as that is the best time for me. But then too i really cant take out too much of time as its bed time! so its actually a treat on weekends when i really freak out with my shower time and would do everything in the shower,a s i have free time then,and also indulge in a hot water bath in the tub at times, depending whats the mood like. So its only weekends for me to leisure out and have a proper , relaxed shower.

maximum time i spend in a shower would be 45 minutes to one hour. I just like feeling the warm water as it hits my skin and washing my hair. If i was ruching i'd say 15 minutes. Now a bath, hmmm close to 2 hours. :P

oh you sexy thang you.lol. If you take showers for about 30-45, it means you one,like the water a lot. Two, you love being clean, and three you have a vivid imagination. Go silver shadow. I am a 20min shower girl, may 30 if it's during the night:)A quick shower might mean she does not enjoy her shower experience, she just cleans and thats it and thats noooo fun:)

Hello there. I spent about 25-30 minutes in the shower. To my parents and brother, that's too long. They average about 15 minutes in the shower. For me, that's not sufficient to clean oneself thoroughly. I enjoy my showering sessions as it helps me to relax after a long day outside. I personally love being in water ie. swimming. Being in water gives me a sense of freedom. =D
