Don't move! There's a duck on your face!

Crap! I thought they flew back north!!

OP's reaction: are you bloody serious?!?

When I'm on my period I do get mood swings, but they're not uncontrollable and I don't think being on your period is a good excuse for ripping out someone's hairs whilst they're asleep. I know people are saying 'YDI for trying to find out when to avoid her', but I'd avoid her as well if she was doing something like that to me.

Except for those of us who are already psychopaths.... We become murderers

#29- Not all women PMS, and for the ones who do, it usually happens before their periods (hence the P in PMS) and doesn't necessarily involve mood swings, so... nope.

Is that a question?

Or if they gained weight that's the worst

#59- Or it helps you write off what people are saying because you can claim that they're just being irrational... That's not biased at all.

You NEVER ask a girl 3 things: Their age Their weight Their period schedule Chances are you'll get f'd up. OC was just asking for it

Listen to this guy !!

You guys must have evil girlfriends. Mine outright tells me when it's that time.

5, I think he very much felt it.

You sir, are an a**hole

Any female duct tape my leg wud def get her twat taped nd ripped off, eye for an eye nd as usual all the females do thumbs down wut a shocka

This is what I read: Look at me being all tough on the internet pretending, acting cool and shit. Being a total ******** and acting like I don't care what anyone else says while hiding behind the safety of a computer monitor is totally a way to get people to respect my shit. I'm going to conveniently ignore the fact that any shit I spout on a web site I would never have the balls to say to someone's face, nor any of the actions I claim I would do without hesitation would I actually have the guts to do. Yeah look at me wagging my epeen all over the place because it's bigger than my real dick. Anyone who replies to me is going to get their shit ruined because I'm so totally swagger and witty and any insults I say will definitely ruin their self esteem because I AM THE SHIT. I AM THE SHIT - when no one knows who the **** I am and there are absolutely no consequences to the bullshit I spew.

Just check the bathrooms for feminine hygeine product wrappers. DO NOT under any circumstances mention them unless she requests that you purchase them, it won't end well. Once you know the start date just get a lunar calendar and a marker and make a schedule.

ya never ask that unless you want to be involved in a bloodbath.

You don't need to ask. There's an app for that.

There is!? What's it called??

iPeriod

YES!

TL;DR

Exactly

I admit I assumed that the girlfriend was upset (be it for something happening in her life or hormones from PMS) and that's why he asked when her period was showing up, because it just doesn't seem like a guy would randomly ask out of the blue in order to "be prepared". In any case, I still think it's a bit rude and insensitive to ask when your girlfriend's period is going to be coming around. It makes it sound like he wants to avoid her during that time (especially with how he worded the FML). I think he could've gone around it a better way, in a way that sounded like he wanted to be supportive of her during that time (to help ease the hell that PMS can be) and not like he wanted to have a bunker prepared for the vicious fallout.

Are you on your period? Sorry, I couldn't help but ask.

Tldr

Nope. My PMS symptoms (thanks to the wonders of birth control) are that I get very mellow and just want to eat fruit, play video games, and read manga. I also know when that is going to be coming around thanks to the pills allowing me to keep easy track. Prior to medication though, my cramps would be so blindingly painful that I would be legit crying out in pain, and bedridden until they were gone thanks to vertigo, nausea, and the aforementioned painful cramps. I've just grown up where every time a woman becomes upset, or angry, or disagrees with someone else, the immediate response is "Oh you're on your period aren't you?" and to be dismissed because of that assumption. It's just one of my biggest pet peeves.

#68-- Are you retarded?

This x100 When I'm on my period I'm exactly the same - heck, I'm usually more stressed, or "bitchy" as most people call it, when I'm NOT on it. It's very insensitive to ask "Are you on your period?" to anyone. If they wanted you to know they would tell you, sheesh.

THIS YES PERFECT
