Today, I'm apparently so desperate for companionship that my body has subconsciously synced my period with the girl who works in the cubicle adjacent to mine. FML

Today, I was showing the guy I like something on my phone. My period tracking app decided it was the perfect time to tell me that I need to stock up on tampons, because I'm getting my period tomorrow. FML

Today, my boss called me in to have a serious talk. The "serious talk" was him asking me to notify him of my menstrual cycle ahead of time so he can "avoid that shit". FML

Today, I realized that without fail, even if I'm not supposed to get it, I get my period just in time for vacations. FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me to start using a period tracker app so I can tell him which week of each month he needs to "stay the hell away" from me. FML

Today, I went on a first date. We had the same phone, and we'd put them down next to each other on the table. I get a message and we both look. It’s my period tracker telling me to be careful, because the floodgates are opening. FML

Today, I got my period 2 days early, while being interviewed for my dream job. Let's just say that I don't have very high hopes after walking backwards to the exit door and falling down upon colliding with the wall. FML

Today, I got my period. 10 minutes into a 3 hour exam. Apparently they are serious when they say you may not leave the room under any circumstances. FML

The body keeps the score

Today, I started my period, complete with cramps, diarrhoea, a headache, bloating, and aching legs. Apparently my body didn't get the message that I had a total hysterectomy a month ago, including my ovaries, tubes and cervix. FML

You realize that your desperate need for companionship and the cycle sync are unrelated, right? Women who work or live in close proximity often experience synced menstrual periods. So, you're not special. Sorry.

Your body is trying to help you make friends! Get over there and share a hello and a box of tampons!

Just like twilight sparkle! Only Celestia not OPs body. And instead of tampons the elements of harmony.

That happens naturally. It doesn't mean you're desperate for companionship. Look it up.

Oh no. I hope that doesn't mean you're desperate for companionship. Mine is synced with my moms and best friends'. I must be one lonely girl.

One day, in the not too distant future, ALL uteruses will become synched, creating some kind of super evil uterine faction... Or was that just on an episode of the twilight zone??? Haha
