My girlfriend uses her period as an excuse to be horrible to me?

[Anonymous]

Before I start off, I just want to say that I do appreciate the amount of pain you girls go through each month.

However i feel that my girlfriend uses this to her advantage. She'll tell me to fuck off even if i haven't done anything, she'll knock my things over and she'll tell me to sleep on the couch... and she always says it's because she's on her period. I'm not one to bang my own drum but i'm really supportive to her during this time; i give her back rubs, make sure she has a heating pad and if i have to, i'll buy tampons for her but i just feel like it all gets thrown back in my face for no good reason. Girls, are these lashouts valid when you're menstruating?

[SomeoneImportant]

Sounds like you're being too soft.

She tells you to sleep on the couch? Please don't tell me you actually follow those orders...

But she is obviously going way over the top. I mean if she says to fuck off, just ignore her. If she's knocking your stuff over, put your foot down and tell her to knock that shit off.

Look, I'm sure periods are a bitch. But some blood and cramps is no excuse to just go ape shit.

When she starts acting out of line, put her in her place.

[Asker]

No i don't sleep on the couch. I can stand up for myself, she's just being a bitch to me sometimes.

[SomeoneImportant]

Just ignore her. Like completely ignore her, as if her being moody means absolutely nothing to you.

Just respond to her with the tone you'd use if she wasn't being bitchy. Just Completely play it off.

[SomeoneImportant]

Also, don't be so attentive. I mean a back rub is not going to stop her from bleeding or cramping. It's pointless

Just let her be, that's honestly the best thing to do. Like I said, act if it's just a phase that will eventually pass. Which is what it actually is...

Periods, girls are not nice on their periods. I'd give them a banana and I would be gone. Fact: certain chemical in bananas help with mood swings. Don't ask where I read that.

[XNicholeMariex3]

Thanks, I am totally going to eat bananas whenever I catch myself being moody.

[Just1n123]

Most girls aren't nice on their periods, some don't have mood swings or cramps so it's not as bad.

[Hidden_P]

Sounds like she's a bitch.

As much as women do go through, women don't flip like that for absolutely no reason. Usually there is a trigger, even a small one.

I've been lucky. Despite my pain, I don't get hormonal on my period. The whole "on my period" thing I don't go through.

How long have you been with her?

[Asker]

We've been together 9 months and we've lived together for 3 of those

[Hidden_P]

Has she ever been like this on her period?

[Asker]

Every time since we've been living together

[HookingSwan]

She's clearly taking some advantage of it.
Either that or she is just someone with control issues. What kind of personality does she have the rest of the time?
I think no one goes through that much hormones to bcome a raging b***. You are already one. Its not Jekyll and Hide

[bethhh29]

I'm grouchy and irritable myself when I'm on my period, but it sounds like she's taking it a bit overboard. I don't know anyone whose period makes them go knocking things over and constantly cursing their boyfriends if their boyfriends are supportive like you. She needs to chill.

[KBob93]

Yeah, you think buddy? She's going horribly overboard. Don't offer yourself up for her like that. Put your foot down & tell her she's being ridiculous.

Absolutely not especially when you are being so caring and considerate. She may be a little extra emotional or in pain but this is extreme. Tell her to get her ass to a dr this must be a medical or mental condition because it's plain unacceptable and she's acting like a spoiled little brat. There are plenty of boyfriends who wouldn't do half of the things you listed here and she should be more great full.

[tzdc21]

You gotta tell her to stop that. Tell her that you know she's going through a lot of pain with her period but that doesn't make it okay for her to treat you like shit. And I'd she still continues to do it after you tell her you're not gonna tolerate it then you need to get away from her.

[XNicholeMariex3]

I would never treat someone like that, especially if they are showimg me that kind of kindness when I'm still crabby. She's just mean and ungrateful. She doesn't deserve you.

[XNicholeMariex3]

Showing*

[karleaa]

It might be that she's mad at something else and just using this as an opportunity to vent. I suggest you talk to her about it (when she's off her period tho, lol)

[evenlift]

There's no excuse. Just dump her. Not only is she being rude to you. By attacking your property, she is being violent too.

[complicated_soul]

That's rude.
Tell her it's no excuse to be that rude.

[Rissyanne]

No it's not. When she gets like that.. just stay out of her way.

[Phoenix98]

Wow my friend she really has no excuse to be that way to you after all the trouble you go through for her.

[BelleGirl21]

Are you sure she isn't just a terrible unloving person al of the time?

[Tarvold]

Life is too short for this bullshit. Find yourself a new girlfriend.

[Candy12345]

They're valid but your girlfriend gets way too mad so they're not that valid

[Chuckles007]

I'm on my period and I cried yesterday for no reason. But your such a sweet boyfriend. You don't deserve that.

Women often use "chemicals" or "Hormones" as an excuse for being horrible human beings... do NOT except it.
If she can not be an adult, then do not treat her like one.

[Hell_DemonDogs]

She is having a baby or acting like a bitch. If I were u I will slap her

[Anonymous]

Well then that's her prerogative
