Guy "weirded out by blood"

Name changed for this obviously...

I've been seeing this guy for a round about a month, fantastic sex, get on really well etc. Anyway a few days ago we were getting down to it, and he suddenly acted all weird, lost his mojo etc, wouldn't kiss me. It transpired later via text that he had "either cut me with his fingers or i had come on". His words. I hadn't come on, so he had somehow got a little carried away and cut my fanjo with his fingers...

Anyway since then, he has been incrediably off with me, not texting me back, not wanting to meet or anything and when I challenged him he said he wasn't sure what he wanted to do about us as he has a blood phobia and he is creeped out.

Is he just a silly little boy who I am better off without or is there someway we can sort it out. I do quite like him

I agree with Edith - i think he is probably embarrassed because he struggled to get it up, so now he's finding something to blame you for (bleeding?!) so he doesn't feel like such a loser.

It's pathetic, and he's a wanker.

Something I've learned over time is that life is way too short to waste time on weirdos you've only been seeing for a month who are so rough with their hands (or don't practice good nail hygiene and keep their nails trim) they cut you and then completely flip out on you.

Don't bother texting anymore. Delete from your life.

His phobia is his problem, not yours. He's an adult, if he wants to change because his phobia is interfering with his personal life, then he needs to get get it.

Find someone who's mature enough to recognise this and similar.

If someone has a blood phobia wouldn't they keep their nails very short? He must have scratched himself or someone else at some point in the past and learned to keep them trimmed.

He sounds weird, and precious, and far too much of a prima donna for any long-term relationship.

So why not leave him be. Leave him to contact you. Chasing him to "sort it out" seems counterproductive to me.

AnyFucker · 19/08/2011 17:42

yeah, leave him to contact you and then when he does say "on your fucking bike, mate"

How about texting back" "Fair enough, I feel the same way about halitosis so it was never going to work! Good luck finding someone bloodless"

Thanks for the messages! Really just summed up how I have been feeling. I will NOT be made to feel like i did something wrong and ashamed of myself when i did nothing at all and he acts like a child. He needs to get over himself.

birdsofshoreandsea ... said it, some men just cannot handle anything to do with menstruation.... sad sacks.

However, if it is a phobia about blood itself I'm glad he wasn't MY ex-boyfriend who tore his frenulum during sex ....oh my GAWD THE TORRENT of BLOOD that poured out of that very erect and consequently very blood filled penis Grin.
