Today, I called my boyfriend and asked if he wanted to come watch a movie. He seemed eager, until I said I needed the company because my period had started. He then went dead silent, waited a few seconds before starting to fake-snore, then hung up on me. FML

Today, my boyfriend picked me up to come spend the night at his house, and on the way he started pulling over to get some condoms. I told him no need, I was on my period. He turned the car around and took me home. FML

Antidate

Today, I was having the worst period cramps you could ever imagine. I cancelled the date I had with my "boyfriend." He replied, “Isn’t there some medicine you can take to make it go away?” When I told him I did and still had them, he said, “Fine, lose my number, I’ll find a girl who doesn’t have that shit.” FML

Today, while I was at my boyfriend's house, I got my period. About an hour after I told him, he impatiently said, "Is it over yet?" FML

Today, I was cuddling with my boyfriend after a fight. I told him the reason I was so irritable is because I'm on my period. He yelped in disgust and nearly fell out of bed. Good to know I'm dating a man-child. FML

Today, I asked my boyfriend to spend the night at my house because my dad would be working out of town, and once the rest of the house left I thought it'd be sweet if he snuck in my room and slept with me. His reply was "Why bother? You're on your period, it's not like we can do anything." FML

Today, my husband put on a nice suit and asked me out to dinner. When he found out I was on my period, he decided to stay home instead, since there was "no point" anymore. FML

Sounds like a great guy. I'm sure you could do better. He should have asked if you wanted chocolate, ice cream or maybe some midol and came over anyways

Chocolate flavored midol

The funny thing about Midol is that it's just acetaminophen (aka Tylenol), caffeine, and an antihistamine. None of which actually do anything to stop period cramps. The best thing you can take for period pain is regular old Advil.

I take Pamprin and I go from laying-on-the-bathroom-floor-in-tears pain to 100% better. I'm pretty sure it's the same thing as midol just a different brand so I'm not sure why it works but it does!

Maybe you're too emotional during your period and he doesn't like to be around you?

I was thinking that that might be why he didn't want to come. Either way, still not cool on his part at all. You can't have a relationship like that. It'll never last

I still can't comprehend how such stupid guys like that can exist and I'm a guy. You either want to be with your GF or you don't.. period or not. I think you need to talk with him and sort this s**t out.

Exactly! He she always just want to be with her... Period. Seriously though, the guy has no tact but it's not necessarily about sex. My girlfriend can be a miserable combatitive bitch always looking to argue when she's on her period so I can completely understand wanting to get the **** out.
