Today, I found a new way to tell if my girlfriend is on her period. If she responds to "Want me to get you anything while I'm at the store?" by screaming "God just fuck off, you cunt!" then bursting into tears, the answer is a definite yes. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend is on her period. She hugged me, crying because she was going to miss me. Where was I going? To the store down the street and back. FML
Today, my wife got her period. Every single time, she ends up asking me to go buy her some Midol after a few days of trying to tough it out, so I decided to buy her some ahead of time. She reacted by yelling at me for treating her like a child and implying that she couldn't go buy it herself. FML
Today, I asked my new girlfriend if she was feeling alright, since she is on her period for the first time since we started dating. I got an empty cereal bowl thrown at my head. Question asked and answered. FML
Today, my girlfriend got her period. It seemed more painful for her than usual, so I offered to go out and buy some painkillers and maybe some chocolate for her. She thought I was being sarcastic and slapped me so hard I saw stars. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend when she'll be having her period, since she was acting pretty bitchy the last time around. She duct taped my leg hair and ripped it off while I was napping. FML
Today, my girlfriend tried to justify having a one night stand with some other guy, with the words, "I'm on my period, okay?!" She acted like I was crazy when I asked how the fuck that made any sense. FML
Today, I went to the store to pick up some feminine products. As I was paying, the male cashier looked at me sympathetically and asked if it was my girlfriend's time of the month. I'm a girl and was buying them for myself. 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, 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, my boyfriend clearly stated that I was "useless" when on my period. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Women (we) get crabby and sometimes irrational. But this thing about lashing out so awfully...you don't deserve that. If she is that angry, there is more than PMS going on.

As a girl who has really extreme mood swings before her period, yes, this is normal behavior. Everyone has a different experience. Doesn't mean it's not normal. P.s. Just yesterday I was lashing out at my boyfriend when he tried to talk to me. I'm fine now.

Bags packed. Car. Tail lights. It's a shortened haiku.

My brother's girlfriend acts like this. She gets incredibly mean then comes over to my house and yells at me for no reason. It's crazy and scary but it really can happen.

As a girl that has had extensive tests done because I've suffered the same severe PMS, I can say all my tests came back normal and the only thing that helped me is the implanon (a contraceptive.) When I get my period and I don't have the implanon or its nearing changing time I get heavily suicidal to the point I will cut, I get emotional and abusive (both physically and verbally,) people even saying hello to me can trigger me into a screaming mess. With the implanon I just get a bit a sad, a bit flat... maybe I eat too much bread for a week or get mildly grumpy and tell people to leave me alone for a while. Nothing worth writing home about. Honestly, it's awful and horrible for all involved and if this is normal for her I would suggest maybe trying the same thing if she's comfortable with the idea. Either way, good luck OP.

I can tell when my wife is on her period because she gets really horny and then gripes about how we can't have sex. I always suggest anal but she never goes for it...

Actually, sex can still be had while women are on their period! It may be a bit messy, but it isn't bad for either partner. It actually can help with period pains and hormone imbalance.

I will add to #46 that you can still get pregnant when having sex while she is on her period so be safe kids!

Don't just assume because she lashed out that she is on her period. That is way more then pmsing, someone else is wrong

while it's not normal behavior for some women their period and the PMS is just a nightmare they can be very grouchy fortunately none of my wives had the problem

A possibility could be that she is annoyed with you

That is way extreme for a normal period Bitchiness. There is more going on than just her period. If she is THAT hormonal that she becomes verbally abusive I'd find out what's going.

Is there something she's upset about? I'm not saying that we aren't like that on our periods, but assuming she's on her period isn't a great thing to do. That seems to be the go-to solution for anyone who sees me angry or upset. It gets frustrating and annoying, but that's me point is check that she's doing okay. It's possible something's been going on that you haven't noticed and she's upset about it
