I’m with a relatively new partner , about 8 months in to dating and things having been going pretty well. I’m late 20s, he’s late 30s. I have a history of sexual assault which he knows about. Something happened which made me uncomfortable and I’m looking for some perspective?

We’d been out for drinks and I was pretty pissed. I’ve had some family bad news recently and I was a bit emotional and drank a bit too much wine but not completely out of it.

When we got back to his flat we started having sex. I remember I was pretty messy, staggering about but I still consented and wanted to do it. I started to give him oral sex and during this he suddenly pushed my head and made it (sorry) go too far in and made me gag. I threw up … on him.

I was extremely apologetic but he made me feel really awful and like it was totally disgusting. I get it’s not nice but he pushed my head down! And I was really drunk. I ended up apologising so much and basically grovelling for him to give me a cuddle that night when we went to bed. The next day he was still saying I can’t believe you did that it’s so gross.

I don’t know. I feel upset and strange about it. AIBU?

Again, another man that’s watched too much porn and thinks women enjoy this sort of behaviour

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 21/07/2026 20:23

Darling, you did nothing wrong.

Ilovelurchers · 21/07/2026 02:04

Just seen this is a zombie thread - sorry.

Ilovelurchers · 21/07/2026 02:03

He's horrendous. Unless you have actively told him you enjoy him doing that, he should not be doing it.

I suspect it's potentially dangerous too, though I am no medical expert. And very unpleasant/painful/scary if you aren't expecting it and don't want it.

And even if you asked him to to do it, he still ought to be aware that vomiting is a potential outcome when you forcibly trigger someone's gag reflex like that.

NightOwlNutter · 21/07/2026 01:46

Fuck him off now - you never push someone's head down and he knows what you have been through - fucking bastard.

NotMyKidsThough · 20/07/2026 20:58

I'm not a woman, but holding someone's head during oral sex is a massive NO unless you ask if it's ok and they clearly stop what they're doing to say 'yes.' What did the idiot expect to happen apart from she's going to vomit? It's ludicrous behaviour. Any man telling her 'it's your fault' isn't old enough to be having sex with anyone.

His fault!

He is the gross one!

Choking a woman in oral is common in porn.

LTB.

I don’t see how this has got to 7 pages.
His fault 100%
This will escalate

I think we can assume the 'men' who hate women are on this thread now.

I would counsel against any more detail.

There are two threads about this in the last 24 hours both by first time posters, the other one doesn't feature vomit.
I think some men might get off on women being outraged by such scenarios, and how degrading it is, just seems a bit of a coincidence

Ah. Right. Plus there's been a couple of anti-women comments on this thread.

You're right to flag it.

whydidyoudoitfin · 25/04/2026 21:35

If I said what I thought you should do to this man I would be banned from MN

Coconutter24 · 25/04/2026 11:27

Is it assault though if OP was already giving him oral? She willingly did it

Yes. You can be play fighting with someone giving gentle taps but if he punches you in the face hard it's still assault.

partmermaidpartplant · 25/04/2026 18:40

Just for this

I’m late 20s, he’s late 30s.

and he pushed your head down….

I think your gag reflex did you a favour. Kick this predator to the curb

whatisheupto · 25/04/2026 18:38

"My partner very suddenly forced a sex act on me without asking for my consent. It caused me to vomit. Instead of apologising profusely and asking if I was OK and trying to help me, he called me disgusting, stormed off and is now sulking about it."

There, fixed it for you OP.

The fact that he is blaming you tells you he is training you to suit his needs.

He is training you to be tip toeing around him and doing what he demands, too scared to 'cause a fuss'.

Huge red flag for an abusive arse who will 100% get worse and worse.

Be glad you've discovered this early on and RUN.

Horses7 · 25/04/2026 18:26

Not your fault at all - perhaps he’ll think twice about doing that in future (if you stay with him that is).

Giving a man oral, does not mean you consent to him ramming his dick down your throat, FFS. How porn sick are people now days?

Let me help you, if I have sex with a man, it doesn't mean I get a free pass to shove my fist up his arse. Im sure you can understand that one, can't you? Well brace yourself, this may shock you, but women have the same rights as men and arent just blow up porn dolls.

CoffeeDate22 · 25/04/2026 11:17

Thanks everyone , it seems like most people agree it’s not a good sign. Good to know I’m not overreacting. I apologised a lot because he seemed so disgusted, it was just my immediate reaction because I felt embarrassed I suppose.

The only thing you've done wrong is to apologise!

Tell him forcibly that what HE did was disgusting, and it's his own stupid fault that you were sick on him.
Oh, and tell him never ever to do that to a woman again.

And then leave him. As others have said, this is an abusive relationship, you need to move on.

aspirationalferret · 25/04/2026 17:30

Really horrible OP. Sorry that happened to you.

the fact he hasn’t apologised for his part is a red flag

Dawnintheageofaquariams · 25/04/2026 17:26

Dump.
Kick to the kerb.
Burn all evidence.
Get fucking rid.

katseyes7 · 25/04/2026 17:08

This is not going to end well. Run, don't walk.

I did but he was just so rude about it. He said ‘do you realise what’s just happened?! I know you’re drunk but you just fucking threw up on my dick. Fucking disgusting’ and then stomped off to have a shower.

Later I said I don’t think it would have happened if you hadn’t pushed my head and he just brushed it off and said it was only for a second.

Tell him you only threw up for a second.

Then block him and never suffer his pornsick bullshit again.

Beautifulhaiku · 25/04/2026 16:53

Nope, this is big red flag territory. Get rid.

Shufflebumnessie · 25/04/2026 16:52

Walk away, you deserve better.
