Wild allegation

Today, I woke up to my boyfriend throwing my birth control box at me and shouting that I was a slut for cheating on him since we never had sex. I attempted to explain the birth control was for a condition I have that causes my period to be non-existent. He didn't believe me. FML

lol at people jumping on the bf obviously the bf is ignorant on the subject..ignorance isn't always our fault. It just means we haven't learned something yet. bf saw the pills, didn't know what else they could possibly be for, and jumped to a conclusion. Anyone who cares about their significant other would freak out if they thought they found evidence that their partner was having sex with someone else. get off your high horses you freaks

If you think that it's being on a "high horse" to expect respect from a significant other, then I DON'T want your relationship. Throwing the box of birth control at her and calling her a ****, rather than asking her why she's on the pill, is unacceptable and disrespectful to her, whether or not he understood why. Similar situation, girl finds condoms in her boyfriend's nightstand and they aren't sleeping together. Flying into a rage and throwing the box at him is not okay. Asking why he has them and waiting for an answer, sure. The boyfriend's an ass because he would treat her that way and no, anyone who cares about their significant other would never act that way. Stop basing your relationship standards on Gossip Girl episodes and Twilight fanfic.

I can even understand him jumping to conclusions and yelling, but calling her a **** and THROWING things at her is totally unacceptable and abusive behavior.

Sorry about that! I'm not sure if it was Firefox or FML, or perhaps both in combination creates malice.

Anyone who cares about their SO would civilly and respectfully ask about the situation instead of assuming she's a cheating *****.

You should have told him. If you needed birth-control drugs to regulate your period (which is true), you should have known what your boyfriend would think if he found out without you telling him. You're an idiot and your boyfriend is an asshole -- you'll probably wind up getting married, you deserve each other. Now, if my wife finds my condoms, I'll tell her that I always wear them to keep my penis skin from chapping! ;)

It's none of his business what kind of medication she takes.

Yeah, it is. Especially if it looks like something she might use to have safe sex while they are not engaging in it themselves. I thought my analogy of condoms to keep my penis skin moist might have made that more clear for you. HIPAA rules don't apply to dating couples.

It really doesn't matter what it looks like, if he is an asshole who jumps to ignorant conclusions, it is not her responsibility to correct his flaw. It's his. Medication and health issues are personal, especially regarding such personal matters as menstration. They are not sleeping together, if she is not comfortable sharing the information, then she has no obligation to. It's HIS fault that he is ignorant about female health issues, not hers.

The OP didnt say how long they have been together, if they just started dating then it may not have came up yet. The different medications and medical conditions that you have are not the first thing you tell someone when you start going out. And even if they had been going out for a bit longer she may have thought that he would have the common sense to ask her about the birth control pills instead of automatically assuming that shes cheating

You don't know how long they've been together. She may not feel comfortable explaining health problems to a new boyfriend. And honestly, anyone who doesn't know that BC is used to treat a variety of medical conditions is an ignorant moron. All of my close female friends take BC, and they all started on it for medical reasons, not for contraceptive purposes. Every BC commercial on TV explain some of the non-contraceptive uses (treating acne, treating PMS/PMDD, treating irregular cycles, treating painful cramps etc), so there really isn't an excuse.

this whole thing is probably the result of not having sex ed in school.

YDI, just because I'd kill for whatever condition you have. And yes, by that I mean I would literally kill for it if bodies worked that way. I'm not afraid to be consumed by my jealousy, and I don't give a shit if people decide to bitch me out because of this comment. **** you and everyone else who doesn't have to suffer through this.

And to the retards who say they WISH they didn't have their period, you're just as ignorant. There are women who cannot or do not have their period often. THIS IS A HEALTH HAZARD. Not releasing your bloody insides can actually be linked to causing cancer!! That's why some people need meds to INDUCE their periods rather than avoid them. THE MORE YOU KNOW

Birth control(any hormone replacement therapy- moreso with Estrogen) also has increased Links to cancer.

Yeah, because constant pain, hormone imbalance (think menopausal symptoms), excess body hair, difficulty with weight loss, INCREDIBLY painful periods when you do get them with extremely amplified symptoms, infertility, that's so much fun. I have a condition just like this, and I'll most likely spend years in pain because being on birth control to try to get rid of the constant stabbing pain in my side just gave me migraines, and if I ever want to have kids, I'll probably have to spend thousands of dollars in fertility treatments, and, oh, yeah, let's not forget the increased chances of cancer. You wanna trade? I'd take a regular period any day of the week.

It's not up to you to decide what other people want to do with their bodies. If she wants to regulate her period it's no more your business than it is the boyfriend's.

Seriously? I prefer having my period. A monthly reminder that I'm not pregnant. Thank you! They used to be pretty bad, but now that I'm on BC, they're predictable and short. Unless you're one of the few individuals that have very extreme periods, take a midol or a shot of whisky and get over it.

Lol if only it were that easy for the ones that had to have a hysterectomy to "get over it."

Ex-gf of mine takes birth control regularly to control a problem with her period; her problem is opposite of no period: she bleeds 15-20 days a month without the birth control.

I actually think i have that same condition.

Dump the jerk and forget about him. I originally went on the pill because I had cramps with my period that left me miserable and bedridden for 3 days every month. If he's that close-minded to think that the only reason why a girl would be on birth control is she's having sex, then he's not even worth thinking about. Forget him and move on, girlie.

first of all: if you arent having sex, why are you sleeping together? and secondly: he's a dick, but anger tends to cloud up one's ability to understand. everyone knows that.

Some couples just sleep together without having sex yet. I don't know why that's so hard for people to understand.

Um. If you live together YDI for not giving him any and not Telling him about your condition. If not, you should run far far away anyways - why the heck was he going through your stuff?!

ohhhhshizzz 0

It really isn't his business, and I highly doubt they live together they could be young teenagers who had their first sleep over together.

For not giving him any? Having a boyfriend automatically means you need to have sex with them?

Your boyfriend sounds like a douchebag. Though it would probably have made sense to tell him about your condition beforehand to avoid this whole thing.
