Dh changes when a full moon

Not in a werewolf way and i’m not a woo type of person, but I’ve noticed a few times (going to have to start writing it down) that on the build up
to a full moon, he can be very moody and not nice sometimes and the day after-few days after, he’s back to himself, but much nicer-kinder

It’s happened too many times now to feel like a coincidence

Am I the one going mad?

Things that happen to men…?!

No, things that happen to women that make behaviours in others less tolerable and more annoying than they would be at other times.

I hate to say it but maybe it's not him, it's you? Grin

Also ... didn't want to state the obvious but.... there are things that happen monthly that make some of us more irritable and less tolerant of the people we live with...

Are you looking out for it more closely when you know there's a full moon coming up?

I used to be convinced my babies'/toddlers' extra-foul moods coincided with the full moons. When I actually started to make a note of it I realised it was randomly distributed, I'd just remembered the ones that were around full moons.

Edited

No I tend to forget and sort of notice it afterwards. Just now I went outside and it occurred to me that he’s been awful for a few days but completely different tonight

I think we're more affected by the natural environment than most people realise.
I often get a migraine when there's a dramatic change in air pressure.
DM was a school dinner lady and she said that the pupils were a lot more boisterous when it was windy.
