My girlfriend won't stop talking about her period

[Talal Provides]

Well, if blood came out of your cock, you wouldn't be very quite about it to your girlfriend, would you?

Yeah, but if that happens. It tends to mean he's gone to die, not being in pain once a month.

And being a pain once a month. Bah-dum-tish.

 

[WeOwnTheSky]

When she starts, just get up and leave and ignore her. If she doesn't get the point, then she isn't respecting you.
I like the idea of talking about your own habits, its hilarious.

 

[The Youth Counselor]

If you were a close friend, I would tell you to muster some testicular or ovarian fortitude and not be a pussy and just stick it through. But I don't know you, and that's impolite and not Escapist etiquette.

As others suggested you could change the subject, and add some gross out humor to it yourself. If it really bothers you, be direct and voice to her to set limits. But really...they're just descriptions and talk, it's not the same as actually going through it yourself or seeing and smelling it. Laugh and live a little.

 

[Woodsey]

Well did you have to share it with us too?

When girls start talking about their periods my brain forces me into a temporary coma until they've stopped.

HEY EVERYBODY URG76'S GIRLFRIEND IS ON THE RAG!

Or, just visibly adjust your balls thoroughly and then attempt to stroke her face.

Okay, thread won. I just fell out of my chair. Nothing can top that.

For you:

EDIT: Okay, I don't really have much to contribute to this topic, but I will say I have the same problem with my sister (which I think is arguably worse). I just got desensitized to it after awhile.

I think you just gotta grin and bear it for awhile.

 

[toughguyjoe]

I have a best friend who tells me....EVERYTHING. I mean she talks about her sex life, her drug problems, her acne and most notably, her heavy flow periods. I can handle it pretty well, but life has desensitized me pretty harshly.

If you haven't had the pleasure of being utterly dead to such subjects...I suggest the hemorrhoids talk. I like a good come back.

 

[JoeCool385]

The way I sees it, you have three options.

1) Play the game, as other people are suggesting, and talk about how much you hate getting your period, and ask her to get tampons for you. (Might backfire.)

2) Ignore her. She does it to get a reaction from you. Stop reacting. (DO NOT FEED THE TROLL.) This has potential to work, but will be miserable until it does.

3) Get a new girlfriend. How much do you love her?

 

[Joshimodo]

Well, if blood came out of your cock, you wouldn't be very quite about it to your girlfriend, would you?

Yeah, you wouldn't be quiet - Because it'd be unusual, and not a monthly occurrence for every girl over the age of 13.

SNIPPED FOR SANCTITY

OI please please edit that!!

 

[Fern Williams]

Well even though its an awful thing for a woman to go though every month its gross and not something you talk about with guys. Men don't want to hear about that stuff and women need to respect that. Best advice talk about something that grosses her out when she is talking about her time of the month. Maybe then she will get the hint that it really upsets you.

 

[xdom125x]

This topic is making me try to think up a pun on "put a cork in it" for your use.

 

[Dragonpit]

Well, if blood came out of your cock, you wouldn't be very quite about it to your girlfriend, would you?

Yeah, but I think it would largely be because that would mean he's dying, not menstruating.

 

[Nouw]

Yes, and I find it... utterly disgusting.

I have already shown how much I don't want her to talk about stuff like that, but she does it now to toy with me for she loves seeing me miserable XD

The whole conversation at lunch was about how much pain she's in/ she was fine in the morning/ talking to her other friend about tampons/ asking ME if I use tampons, etc.

I don't want it to be like that tomorrow or any other day, so what should I do?

Talk about your turds, eg I always find a good one is:

*after coming back from the toilet*

"That one was fucking insane, like the opening scene from saving private ryan."


etc etc

I cracked up reading 'Saving Private Ryan.' A shit like the Omaha Beach-Head? Oh no! The media will rip you apart for that remark about comparing dead soldiers to your shit!

So yeah, talk about the crap you have. You know, on the phone describe how it's like!

 

[The Afrodactyl]

Menstruation terrifies me.

 

[Ladette]

Or, just visibly adjust your balls thoroughly and then attempt to stroke her face.

That's the hardest i've laughed all day, well done.


I'm a girl and talking about it weirds me out, some things are just better not shared.

 

[Popido]

Punch her in the uterus.

talking to her other feminine friend about tampons/ asking ME if I use tampons, etc.

Yes. For your hemorrhoids. Tell her that. And carry a picture with you incase.

 

[kannibus]

Wait until you get married kid.

It was okay when we were just dating, even when he started living together, but then I popped the question and after that well... things just sort of went downhill.

We've been good about it though. I play video games and she eats chocolate ice cream. The system works.

 

[Paksenarrion]

Um...women don't normally talk about their periods.

Unless they just started getting them.

How old is she, again?

 

[Stasisesque]

Um...women don't normally talk about their periods.

Unless they just started getting them.

Hold is she, again?

Or are new age hippies.
Or hardcore militant feminists.
Or amongst their girlfriends.
Or have medical training.
Or are having really fucking bad cramps.

It's hardly a taboo subject, I don't really understand why people are revolted by it - but it's not... appropriate dinner party conversation.
