New DP overreacting?!!

Now that is absolutely repulsive. Dutch ovens are surely the remit of teenage boys and idiots.

We're perfectly comfortable in our home thanks. We don't shit with the bathroom door open or pick our noses in front of each other either, does that make us uncomfortable as well?

Generally I want DP to find me attractive and want to sleep with me, and equally I want to find her attractive too. Not subjecting each other to the smell of shit if we can help it generally aids with that.

we both are comfortable with not farting in front of each other.

This with bells on.

I don’t tend to pee as much as I trump!

It’s not about being secretive. It’s an excuse me because it’s about going to the bathroom and not inflicting the smell on others if it can be avoided. Staying …woukd you not get up and leave if you need to pee? Or is that disruptive and drawing attention to it?
What a weird interpretation of some behaviour that is considerate of others

How sad that you can’t just be comfortable in your own home.

20 years in and we still don't do it in front of each other on purpose.

Yeah, sometimes one slips out but if you know you've got one brewing it's really not hard to leave the room for a second.

It's as though farting is a form of entertainment for some.

People are so mimsy on MN. Married 23 years - we both fart in front of each other and it’s just not an issue. Also his comment is misogynistic- as though farting is a male only preserve.

What would you do if you are out walking around somewhere and there are no toilets. Not always possible to hold a fart in for an hour till you find a bathroom

That is hilarious 😆

Why ?

This is my view too.

Because cracking off a quick fart that's making you feel uncomfortable - a NATURAL function - is EXACTLY the same as pissing in the kitchen sink. 🙄

I think it's weird, and attention seeking - and a bit gross, to walk around the house naked, so I guess we're all different eh?

@Threewordname

No-one would die if you came out of the loo straight after pooing and wiped your arse in public so you didn’t miss what was happening on the tv. Would you do that? If not, "chill the fuck out"!

Also a LUDICROUS comparison! 🙄

Basically, no WAY should any women be staying with a man who shames her, and threatens to dump her for farting. Or for doing anything normal and acceptable!

I had a bloke once (who I was dating) who said he would leave and I'd never see him again if I put the Abba album that I had just bought. We were in my parents dining room (I was 17-18,) and he stood up and said 'get that fucking shit off, or I'm off and you'll not see me again!' His face was contorted with rage, and he was going purple. Fucking weirdo. I had been seeing him for a month, and he'd shown several controlling ways already, like he doesn't like me wearing make up, and I need to wear flat shoes not heels, and he'd told me I looked fat in this particular figure hugging dress. (I was 8 stone 7 and didn't look fat in ANYthing.)🙄

tl;dr. I half laughed and saw red, and said 'well fuck off then and don't come back!' and I grabbed his arm and pulled him out of our dining room, and pushed him out of the front door. I said 'who the fuck do you think you are that you can tell me what music to play in my OWN HOUSE!' He just said 'good luck finding anyone else to put up with your shit! and stormed off.

He phoned up 2 weeks later (dad answered) and asked to speak to me. He said to my dad that he wants me to come to the phone as he is 'willing to give me another chance.' 😂 Whilst standing 5 feet away from the phone I said LOUDLY 'tell him fuck off.' Dad said 'did you catch that?' and hung up. Never heard from the cunt again.

The first fart in a new relationship is always the hardest
Once its done it should open the doors for both partners to fart freely and loudly whenever the need arises 🤣🤣

Meant to add. His words are offensive. Far more so than letting rip with a fart.

Throw this one back but not yet. You don't want to always be the one that dumped him over a fart. Find something terrible about him in a fortnight and let it be that thing!

We fart all the time and fall about laughing. We give stars (1 - 5) for loudness, prolonged sound, the startle factor, stench, ability to cling to soft furnishings etc.

Unclench those pearls and have a laugh.

OP I won’t lie two months is quite premature to be letting farts out but your DO is a wet lettuce 🤣 dumping you because ‘women don’t do that’ LOL I’d dump him for being a twat

I know people who claim they dont fart.
Yes you do!! Stop bloody lying!!

Wtf hahahaha surely you must all have had horrendous gut issues holding farts in 🤣

ofc not at the dinner table or other situations like that but a little fart in your own bed isn’t a dumpable offence 🤣

Bloody hell, Really?!

I find the attitude on mumsnet about farting so bizzare - there was a thread a few weeks ago about people not even liking the word fart.

farting is a totally normal thing - I don’t mean go around farting in peoples faces but letting one out when sitting there is really nothing to get dumped over or cause the pearl clutching it has on this thread.

My husband had a 'ladylike' ex like this. He certainly wasn't allowed to fart around her. It meant that shortly into our relationship when he became very, very ill with peritonitis, in hospital for a week, nearly died, and then on one occasion I had to help him clear up after a dark green, oily liquid bowel explosion because he couldn't even sit up unaided, he assumed I would want to dump him. Apparently that's what the ex would have done - and wouldn't have helped him clean up in the first place.
