Today, I sat next to this really hot guy in my writing class. We struck up a conversation, and it was going well, until he began describing, in excruciating detail, his IBS and fiber problems, and how he always has to poop. Good to know. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, in my psychology class, the creepy guy who sits beside me every day leans over and says, "I have an upset stomach, I may have to use the bathroom." FML
Today, as I listened to the guy I've been seeing pour his heart out to me, all I could think about was how much I needed to poop. FML
Today, the cute boy in my biology class I had been crushing on invited me over to study for a huge test. Once I got to his house, I really had to use the bathroom. I ended ending up taking a huge dump and clogging up his toilet. He had to come plunge it for me. FML
Today, I discovered the guy that sits next to me in class is actually a girl. Not only is that bad, but we had to write a paper about each other. I used the words "him" and "he", and read it to the whole class. FML
Today, I was in the line at Chipotle and noticed a very attractive lady in her mid 20's. I deliberately took the table next to her and her friend and happened to overhear what they were talking about. They were both discussing how much diarrhea they were going to have when they got home. FML
Today, I was absolutely busting to poop, so badly that I began to sweat. This was while I was sitting a medical exam, and had to write in depth about the mechanical and chemical process of digestion. FML
Today, I was hit on by a guy who decided to use the line, "My love for you is like diarrhea, I just can't hold it in." FML
Today, I had diarrhea in a Walmart bathroom for 15 minutes. Apparently, so did the guy in the stall next to me. He attempted to make small talk to pass the time. FML
Today, at physical therapy, I felt that all-too-familiar gurgle in my gut, but I thought it would a light, silent fart. I squatted for an exercise and shit my pants in front of the cute, single, male physical therapist. He definitely noticed. I still had 30 minutes left in the session. FML
Today, I discovered the worst possible situation in which to get explosive diarrhea: on a 9-hour transatlantic flight. Next to an attractive single guy. FML

He's probably sick of investing time into a woman and really getting to know and like her before revealing his IBS, so just decided to be upfront about it.

Well, in the bright side, this likely means he feels comfortable enough around you to share really personal information. That, or he just has no filter whatsoever. But it's better for your emotional and mental health if you assume the prior.

I'm a nurse. For me this would be a good day. A bad day is where I wear it.

<p>When you have a disease and live with it for long enough, you tend to lose perspective on what grosses other people out.</p> <p> </p> <p>I'm always talking to others about Crohn's, for awareness, and casually reveal that I've worn adult diapers since I was 32, due to repeat surgeries.</p> <p>Ain't no thang to me, but sometimes, I see people cringe and know when to start becoming a little more vague.</p>

It was me, I'm the guy. You were really annoying so I came up with a funny cop out without hurting your feelings but if you're going to take to the internet about another's health issues you deserve to be called out too.

Are you actually the guy?

I doubt you' re actually the guy, but if the guy really was making it up, that's also making light of what is an awful disease for the people whon suffer from it and that's not okay either. So getting on a high horse about OP bitching on the Internet (which I do agree, is terrible), would be really ******* stupid for guy if he were just BSing (no, not making a pun/joke. well not intentionally at least because now is neither the time nor place for.it)

Stop making fun of people. It's not funny to make fun of that health issue

Those issues can cause someone to seem flighty or dismissive. It can stop someone from being able to go on adventures or dates or spur of the moment get togethers. If he's confident enough to talk about it that's a good thing, sure it may not be what you wanted to hear or talk about but regardless of his reason for telling you one thing it did was explain why he might not be able to hang out sometimes or why he has to disappear for unknown amounts of time while interacting with you. It's a good

Maybe was not the best time for him to bring it up (especially in great detail) considering it sounds like it was the first time meeting...probably would not make for the greatest first impression....Either way, still a good idea to try to be a bit sensitive. IBS and other digestive diseases can be an awful battle to face alone. Maybe he was just looking for some emotional support? Or maybe he's faced it so long that he just has no filter about it anymore...
