woody let rip with a big one tonight. It's good to be able to surprise one's partner after so many years 😆

AnUnhappyStudent · 17/04/2017 22:27

My DH farted the first night we slept together. He told me it meant he was serious about me and couldnt face the thought of the next 20 years with belly ache Grin

Everyone does it.It's a natural bodily thing that can't always be controlled. We were talking about flights the other day and one had left 20 minutes late. I commented 'ah with a good tailwind they'll make that up no problem' and DP replied 'that's why you're always punctual, the bloody tailwind!'

ilovepixie · 17/04/2017 22:34

My dp farts on my head!

nickienackienoo · 17/04/2017 22:37

Sorry, and I know I'm going to get slated, but ewwwww - some things should be kept private and 'trumping' amongst other things are one of them. Male or female. Not classy, IMO common. Same goes for belching.

You seem like you're bragging Shock

I'd be mortified! What a lack of respect cringe

ilovepixie · 17/04/2017 22:44

He actually farts on all his friends and kids heads! As do all his friends to him! He finds farts very funny!

Ariandenotgrande · 17/04/2017 22:44

Oh Nickie...I wish i could keep it all in. Some of us are naturally windy and to keep it in would mean terrible consequences, pained expression, cramps and God knows what. I will assure you I am a lady in every other respect Grin

Ariandenotgrande · 17/04/2017 22:47

Not sure about the farting on the head thing though, Pixie....That's a different realm entirely and a bit scareyConfused

wheresthel1ght · 17/04/2017 22:51

ilovebagido I am actually crying with laughter at your post!! Have had to admit to DP I am mumsnetting - he thinks I am lesson planning :)

For the first few months I hid my farts, then I got pregnant, had HG and that was the end of all mystery. Head in the loo while you vom everything you have ever eaten in your whole life - trust me farting becomes the least of your worries!

Mummysrcrazy1 · 17/04/2017 23:06

Obviously - seeing as she's human Hmm

What she has in common with onself Grin is that she's got manners, and doesn't do it in public, Comprendez? Good Smile

toffee1000 · 17/04/2017 23:41

Nickie oh do bore off. What a snob you sound.

MadameDePomPom · 17/04/2017 23:43

'Comprendez' is always the sign of someone who needs to let some gas out.

nickienackienoo · 17/04/2017 23:46

I'm not a a snob, I was just brought up with manners? and belching and passing wind was something that you didn't do in public. shrugs

Shan't bore off, public forum and all that what what ;)

Oooh madame I'm let off plenty of gas, in private, natch Grin

toffee1000 · 17/04/2017 23:49

You can't always help it though. If it does happen, apologise at least.

MadameDePomPom · 17/04/2017 23:49

I'm let off?

avamiah · 17/04/2017 23:53

I have been with my OH for 8 years and he was there when I gave birth to our daughter which was not a pretty sight so he has seen it all but the one thing I couldn't do in front of him is sit on the toilet and have a wee.
I just don't feel comfortable, haha
Farting is fine.
How mad is that?

nickienackienoo · 17/04/2017 23:53

I've - apologies, typo Smile

Of course sometimes you can't help it, admitted! but to purposely do it in public? I don't apologise for finding it gross - it's disgusting, IMO. I do hope that's ok toffee? seeing as this is a public forum?, Yes? Thank you Grin

Wriggler79 · 18/04/2017 06:13

Never used to do it in front of exH. Wouldn't have dreamed of discussing anything poo-related either.
DP held it in around me for abouta month before starting to complain his stomach hurt. He encouraged me to join him in farting whenever the need arises. He thinks it's funny, and congratulates me if I ever manage to do it around him (still shy).
Sometimes he grabs my arm, makes a worried face, and asks me to call a doctor. Then he farts, tells me it's too late, and I should call a priest instead 🙄😂

Meekonsandwich · 18/04/2017 13:01

Those who say they like to keep the mystery, what mystery?!?! It's no secret that everybody poos and farts!!!!!

I wouldn't go out in public and let rip or burp, but at home! Its my home!
What happens if you get sickness and diarrhoea?! Or give birth?!

Sometimes it's hilarious! Life is funny!

cocobatter · 18/04/2017 13:09

Seems quite a good description to me EllebellyBeeblebrox - smelly and inappropriate Grin

HappyLabrador · 18/04/2017 13:12

What she has in common with onself is that she's got manners, and doesn't do it in public, Comprendez? Good

She might not do it in public but I bet she does it in front of Phillip.

I totally get not letting rip in public places surrounded by strangers but holding it in around your Dh; the person you are most intimate with in the world? That's just weird to me.
