Is it normal that i like to take my baths in the dark?

I love taking baths in the dark. No lights, not even candles. I usually shower, but about once a month I'll have a bath.

When I use bubble-bath (juniper or lavender scented), it turns the water dark. It reminds me of swimming in a lake that's dark with the richness of all the tannins from decaying trees.

Sometimes, I enjoy the silence, and other times I drag my stereo into the bathroom (its a large room with high ceilings and the acoustics are phenomenal).

is it normal to have a bath in complete darkness and enjoy it?

    Aren't you afraid a serial killer will come and get in the bath with you and murder you? I could never take a bath in the dark.

      Well, a serial killer can come in and kill you no matter what. Lights on or off.. So ..?

    I can understand this, but I doubt I could pull it off. I would probably end up shampooing my hair with Nair or something. I have to have at least a lil light, preferably a candle. But yea, normal and relaxing :)

    I might have to try taking a bath in complete darkness. Sounds like fun.

    A bath is like being in the womb surrounded by fluids. Warm and safe.

    I am actually currently doing this.. It's very relaxing.. I play some music and just calm down.. It's helps a lot with my anxiety.. Because I can't see anything so it just helps me focus on the music and just clear my mind

    I sometimes shower in the dark but the only reason I do that is so I can watch the woman who lives behind me take her top and bra off while changing, everyday without fail....so ye it's ok if ur just bathing in the dark

    Hell yes. Then you can pretend it's someone else's fart bubbles popping at the waterline.

    That sounds very relaxing. But as others have said, I don't think I could do it.

    I've never taken a bath in the dark, but I have taken showers in the dark. There is a light right over the shower in my bathroom and sometimes it's just too bright and disturbing, so in order to give my eyes a rest, off they go. I don't have windows in there so it gets pretty dark. But eventually my eyes adjust and it's kind of relaxing.
