How to treat your girlfriend on her period!

Post Reply New Topic

A period can be a difficult thing in a relationship which is best to try and remove all responsiblities and stress from your gf when shes on her period so she wont take it all out on you!

Very sensitively, with much discretion.

Ladies have to put on pads, kotexes, or tampons. It doesn't feel really good for them.

It's funny: I've known ladies, in the full throes of menstruation, that really desire a man.

How about by not patronising them, about being on their period?

Yeah, pretty much that. Also girls differ, what's true for one may not be for another. Personally, I've had some PMT in the past but not so bad while using hormonal contraception. The best cure I found was to realise it was PMT, but I expect having that pointed out aggressively wouldn't help. Also the main person my PMT upset was me, I don't recall it getting taken out on other people.

Once the damn thing actually started all the PMT stress went away, I got rare and fairly mild period pains (more often before rather than during), and the only annoyance was trying to battle the huge amount of blood And the anaemia, which again, tended to be worse beforehand.

I hope you didn't think my post was patronizing LOL

I've observed with the women I have met that the way they handle that time of the month varies from person to person. One person would be in pain and be more emotional, the next person might not have any effect and continues behaving like their normal selves.

The time of month you have to be extra sensetive and nice to her! Give her a blanket if she feels col make her some herbal tea and maybe some rocky road icecream later on! Dont tell her she looks fat and try to at listen to her even if shes saying mean things to you!

I notice they don't have a sense of humour at that time.
My last girlfriend as we were walking down a busy street tells me its her time of the month so I said I wondered what that red trail following her was and she got the right hump.

I am perplexed by some of your posts relating to the opposite sex. Have you ever really had a relationship with a female, or lived in a situation which put you in direct proximity to females for any prolonged period of time? It just seems you are not very familiar with the mind or sensitivities of women.

Like others have said, it really depends on the person. My ex-girlfriend would become quite emotional and moody while it's the complete opposite with my current girlfriend. She pretty much stays the same aside from having food cravings, and getting more clingy. But I don't really need to act differently around her, or worry about getting my head bitten off. The only big difference is her sex drive. As in she'll want it all the time lol, but that's not so bad

I don't want to be treated in a special way during my period. Of course, if a get a bad cramp, I would want some calm and a warm blanket. But I want to be respected every day. This means that I am not more ''sensitive'' because of my hormones than men are ''sensitive'' when they are tired or ill. Don't patronize me.

If you are worried about how to act with your girlfriend, you should simply ask how she would like you to act or support her. Communication is the key, because everybody has different likes and dislikes.

Treat me like a man, because I know I'm a man on the inside, down to the pit of my stomach.
