YANBU, especially if you're around each other a lot of the time. Holding it in can be very uncomfortable, not to mention painful.

I think its wierd that you don't, especially as he does. No secrets here, DH and I fart in front of each other. Its not the 1940's anymore.

oh dear.

when we were first dating, he wouldn't fart in front of me - I even asked him if he ever actually farted
mainly because I needed to and I wasn't going to leave the room to do it!

Now he farts all the time in front of me and laughs when I do it... Hmm

To be honest I'm not particularly bothered just wondered if others do it too!

We all fart away quite happily here. If DH raised an eyebrow at any of mine I would take it as a compliment Grin

YANBU. It's natural. There's always a horrified contingent on these threads and it mystifies me. You live with him. He's probably seen your genitals from a variety of unattractive angles. You've exchanged bodily fluids. What's the deal with a bit of wind?!

You are only being U if it's his turn.

Give it a year or two - you will be competitive farting, not apologising.

Of course, I am immaculate. Never fart, never go to the loo, never actually eat. But for the rest of you, fart away. Wink

I wouldn't. But then I can't even go to the toilet upstairs if DH is anywhere upstairs at the same time.

YABU. Hold it in until you are in the middle of an argument that deserves a Biscuit and let it out then. (If it is urgent then you have to create an argument; do not waste a valuable fart).

My dh hates it when I fart in front of him. Even though he is a champion farter himself and proud of itAngry. I let a couple of small ones out in bed last nightBlush and he started tutting and huffing. Twat.

WhoAteMySnickers Doesn't that make life really difficult though? What about when you are in a hotel room in the en suite? Do you make him leave the room?

I know in the early days of a relationship it is not necessarily something you might want to do, but after they have seen you give birth, anything goes.

erm, I'm not claiming that I am reasonable but after almost 12 years and 4 babies I haven't. I'm not a particularly windy person but I would leave the room if I needed to! I also run the tap when I'm going for a no2, so he doesn't hear! Ridiculous, I know. He farts in front of me, and laughs! I've complained and told him to go the bathroom to do it and he says that he would live in the bathroom if he had to do that. He thinks I'm ridiculous and says I fart in my sleep all the time so I'm fooling no one!
