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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my boyfriend flipped out when he saw a period tracker app on my phone. According to him, chicks only use those when they want to know when they’re the most fertile so they can “baby trap” a man. I have irregular cycles. The app helps me know when I should or shouldn’t expect a period. FML
Today, my boyfriend is threatening to dump me if I don’t give him all the details of my menstruation so he can track my periods with an app on his phone. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he could predict my periods because he keeps track of when I'm at my bitchiest each month. This wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't so accurate. 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, I noticed that on the calendar in my boyfriend’s apartment, for every week of the months when I have my period are coloured in red and over them, in block capitals, he has written 'BEWARE'. FML
Today, my boyfriend clearly stated that I was "useless" when on my period. 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, the moment after hitting "confirm payment" for my boyfriend's valentine gift (along with some sexy lingerie for the occasion) on a shopping app, my period tracker app popped up to let me know I'll be well into my period on the 14th. I'm getting cockblocked by mother nature herself. FML
Today, my boyfriend caught me in a lie about being on my period. He memorized my menstrual cycle, but still forgot that today is my birthday. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years told me I was being too obsessive. This is the guy who has gone through my phone two separate times and deleted all of my male contacts. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I would have responded with "if you ever ask that again, all of them."

He should man up and love you every day of the month. Besides, I don't get what guys get so freaked out about. A period means that you aren't pregnant! If I were a guy, I'd be thrilled every month to get this news!

Are you an insufferable jerk when menstruating?

#19: I have PCOS and I have horrible cramps because of it and let me tell you, I have had the cysts burst during my period and I had to be hospitalized because of it. I also have PMDD which is a lot worse than regular PMS. Unless you have experienced horrible physical or emotional pain from your period, you have no right to tell us that we are overexaggerating.

this is my response to knowing a GF's period day: i leave a note on the counter saying i've put her favorite ice cream in the freezer, there's half a pizza in the fridge, and i've barricaded myself in my den until it's over.

Why doesn't he just get a period tracker app on his phone for you? I know a guy who does that so he knows without even having to ask his girlfriend.

damn how bad are you on your period? if he needs to stay away like that. ... you might be at the level of throwing things

Maybe you should just control your emotions like an adult and stop being a fire breathing dragon and blaming it on your period.

How do you know it's not just the boyfriend making a big deal out of nothing? He's the one blaming her emotions on it, not her, and it could just be that he's a dick, and not a hormonal thing.

If there's honest to God an app for this I'm gonna lose it by laughing my ass off

There are several apps to track your period. It is a hell of a lot easier than using a calender.

The one I have lets you track any symptoms as well and their severity. It helps if you need to talk to your doctor about anything and you are forgetful.

Bit of a red flag there OP - if he can't love and respect you regardless of the time of the month, he's probably going to be just as disrespectful in other aspects of your relationship too.

I don't see the problem here. I have always tracked my period and let my significant other know which week I was going to be a little more emotional.

Mostly the "stay the hell away from" op part.
