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

May just be me, but if he doesn't wanna be with you while you're on your period, I don't blame him. I'm AWFUL on my period. Also, he just doesn't have to be there if he doesn't wanna. Now, he could've been nicer about it, but you shouldn't be so sensitive. My dad does that to me sometimes :D it just depends on whether he meant it in a mean or joking way.

he obviously don't consider you as his girlfriend.

You shouldn't take that shit from anyone. If he thinks he can pick and choose when to love you then he's got another thing coming... dick.

I was gonna suggest that you say that you missed your period, but given his reaction, that might not be a good idea.

When you are off of your period call him up and let him know, then tell him he can't have it and break up with him.

Well I guess he doesn't know that being on your period also makes you horny a hell of a lot more. That or you're horrible to be around when you're on your period, it might've just been easier not to mention it and let him find out for himself if he was wanting it. (Also sex is better whilst you're on, just messier).

I don't usually say this, but if he is only with you to get laid then honestly you better off moving on and finding someone who does indeed want to be with you. All of the time.
