Today, I decided to make the switch from pads to tampons. My boyfriend ended up having to show me how to apply them. FML

At least he knew. Saved you from an awkward conversation with your mother or your best female friend. I'd keep him around, for sure.

There is instructions in the box…

I'm a gay male and I've had to do this for friends before

Well, at least he helped! That sounds like a gentleman to me. :D Don't feel bad, OP. I don't know how they work, either, and I've never used them. The thought makes me uncomfortable. So you're not alone!

Thts really adorable. He is taking care of you :3

It's not exactly uncommon knowledge. But why does it matter if it's a guy teaching a girl? Yes it's a bit ironic but tampons have many other uses. Mainly to soak up blood but they are great gauze pads for anything.

my older cousin had to teach me when I was 15 as I didn't know either , and the first couple of months trying to use them I often put them in wrong (not inserted high enough) or was in pain . It is common even knowing your body to need help especially as it is hard to see when inserting for the first few times!
