Not farting in front of DH

Occasionally but not deliberately as it's a bit gross.
Worst thing is at work in the office alone, you let one go and immediately someone walks into the office and comes up to your desk to ask a question... that's real embarrassing

@CheekyHobson fair enough, I have to say I'm very glad I married a man who isn't put off by a natural bodily function or who expects me to leave the room in my own home every time I need to fart 🤣

Honestly, I would hate to live the way some people on here describe. It sounds very uptight and not very enjoyable or relaxing.

Free farting household here.

You'd probably find some of our conversations amusing! But I don't consider myself prudy at all. Just quite fussy and sensitive to smells.

It's the kind of thing we've always talked about, I'm sure we discussed whether we would poo in front of each other at the start.

It's not that farting or pooing in front of each other is embarrassing. Or that either would be a problem if accidental.

It's more that I'd been in previous 'farting and pooing' in front of each other relationships before and don't think that aspect added anything positive. If anything, it made the thought of living with that closely with another human again less enticing.

I don't really want to sleep in a bed and sit in a living room that regularly smells of fart. Or have someone come and poo while I'm relaxing in the bath.

So this time I thought it was important to be open about what we wanted from the start.

Adults aren’t actually meant to love each other unconditionally though.

I have no terrible stomach issues that prevent me from having the control to leave the room. DH is exactly the same. Of course it happens once in a while, and there's no embarrassment when it does, but neither of us want to intentionally inflict unpleasant smells on other people.

I often find adults who still consider burps, bums, poos and/or farts to be funny a little tiresome though. Different folks and all that, but someone who still thinks a natural bodily function is the height of comedy is unlikely to be my kind of person.

It most definitely is rude. Who wants to smell the insides of someone’s intestines??

I can't imagine not feeling comfortable enough to fart in my own home or around the people who are supposed to love me unconditionally.

I find it really surprising that people don't fart at home at least.

After birthing 2nd dc my control is worse that it was.
But like other posters. I'd never be in the room on some days if I couldn't just fart.
Uptight.
Of course everyone farts walking round and at work. They let sneaky quiet ones out if they can.

I once worked with someone who held a fart in as a kid, because they had visitors. He ended up getting a twisted bowel and had to have an op!
I don't fart on purpose, but if I got up to leave the room it'd come out anyway. So I just blow where I am! If you have stomach issues anyway, it's not easy to quickly remove yourself!
I only fart in front of my mate and my DH! But then they do the same!!!

It hurts to hold them in i have to let them out.

Nope not for me

I'm not precious, I am pretty crude and happy to hear and share gross information with others, and I'm very comfortable with my husband.

But sitting in a fart filled room, disgusting.

It's an unpleasant thing to inflict on someone and I can't comprehend how people enjoy sitting in each others stink. I've got clean pjs on, nice smelling bedding, I've used a pillow spray. I'd find it absolutely rank if my husband came in the room and filled it with fart that I've got to breath in.

I shared a bed with my friend who's a farter a few months ago, and I felt like crying in the middle of the night, I waa so tired but couldn't sleep, the room smelt rotten and I felt so gross breathing it in.

Me and oh have a giggle at accidental farts, he made me jump the other day and I farted for example, but that's entirely different to just freely letting rip and inflicting it on others.

I pooped myself in front of my husband once (obviously not intentional - it was really bad food poisoning!) - so letting the odd fart out is nothing!

Probably not many! Is there some kind of problem with that?

As one half of a “prudy couple” let me enlighten you; in my case, no conversation has been necessary as we both just prefer not to fart in front of each other, so it’s been a normal and unspoken aspect of our relationship.

But if my BF had shown a tendency to let loose when I was in the room, after the first couple of instances I would have just said, “Hey, if you don’t mind, I’d prefer to keep a little mystery in our relationship around body functions. I know sometimes it’s not possible but prefer to avoid burping and farting in front of each other and I’m definitely not a fan of sharing a bathroom at the same time.”

💪

We don't fart in front of each other or the kids even. I don't know why we consider it rude even though it is a natural bodily function. I think it's because if you really think about it, it's air that's been around your poo inside your body. It feels rude to make other people smell that particular air.

It's ok, I enjoyed 'Donalds' (might start using that myself)
& full rectal rhapsody (sounds a tad painful!)

That's disgusting 🫣

Regularly farting in front of dh is completely different from administering personal care. I'm not squeamish about anything like that, and I've worked in healthcare a lot over the last 40 years. If he crapped himself because he was ill, or whatever, cleaning him up wouldn't bother me one bit. I'm not at all uptight!
I just respect good manners.

I have always been discreet in front of DH (10 years). Last week that all changed with something I ate that didn't agree with me. He is probably disgusted but I feel liberated and won't be silenced any longer.

I don't do it, just as I wouldn't in front of anyone else. I'm not saying it's never happened but I try not to. DH on the other hand does it all the time. Sometimes it wakes me up in the morning. I hate it. It's really disrespectful.

He'll have walked into the bathroom minutes after you left it. Believe me, he knows what your farts smell like.
