To suddenly find DH really annoying and smelly

Don't know what's happened. I love him. We've had a great relationship for the last 10 years. But for the last week I can barely look at him. He chews loudly, farts, is sweaty, is very very boring, always moans and looks so miserable.

What the hell is going on???? Why am i suddenly seeing all this stuff and not the gorgeous man I love? I just want to get back to how I used to feel about him up til last week! He hasn't changed - pretty sure his chewing style etc.. have always been the same, but suddenly it's jut all really annoying me and turning me off :(

Has this happened to anyone else? Will I click back to my normal self soon?

Help! (I am genuinely actually a bit stressed about this. We have dc's and I do love him)

I thought I was going to nail it by saying 'pregnant'. Seems I am not alone!!!

MayFayner · 26/10/2017 21:01

I do the reverse branleuse

I know my period is due when I start thinking about how I will juggle childcare etc on my own Grin

Pregnant

MrsA2015 · 26/10/2017 21:02

Pregnant.

RuncibleSp00n · 26/10/2017 21:02

My first thoughts? Pregnant.

But now I see everyone else had the same first thought!

JonSnowsWhore · 26/10/2017 21:02

May you’re too tame. I know it’s due when I’m looking up my flight tickets to leave the lot of them to live on a beach somewhere

SpecialAgentDaleCooper · 26/10/2017 21:06

OMG you are so right about the premenopausal thing!

If in the next couple of years you read about a woman killing her partner due to his sinus related sniffing and snoring.....I'm your woman.

luckyDuvet · 26/10/2017 21:06

Oh god, you've got to POAS and tell us what it says!

Hastalamorte · 26/10/2017 21:07

Gah, thought pregnant too!
Menopause?
Sobriety?
Grin

NapQueen · 26/10/2017 21:07

Another one whose first thought was PREGNANT

usernameinfinito · 26/10/2017 21:09

Pregnancy.

GlitteryFluff · 26/10/2017 21:09

Poas!

Garlicansapphire · 26/10/2017 21:12

Having an affair? Sorry OP. Just when you get your head turned your H suddenly seems like a real oaf...

YouCantArgueWithStupid · 26/10/2017 21:13

🤰🏻 is my guess too

BootHill · 26/10/2017 21:14

I was going to say pregnant Hahahaha.

MrsEight · 26/10/2017 21:15

I would say you are pregnant ....?

HettySunshine · 26/10/2017 21:15

My first though was pregnancy too.

I could barely look at my dh for the first couple of months of both of my pregnancies.

Graceflorrick · 26/10/2017 21:16

Stressed at work?

Bonosglasses · 26/10/2017 21:16

I could've quite happily murdered my DH at the beginning of my perimenopause. It was not my finest time though I will never admit that to him 😳😝

limon · 26/10/2017 21:18

Yeah I'm guessing Peri menopause. The exact same thing happened to me.

Dabitdontrubit · 26/10/2017 21:23

My DH lost a tooth last month & all I felt was pity & love...

This month I want to punch the rest out & I've found his snoring louder.

I've also had a couple of hot flush deep sweat moments.

I suspect the biggest change is me rather than him suddenly becoming repulsive after 18 years together!

Oh cry I need to google premenopause don't I? (Before I accuse him of all sorts) Blush

Clankboing · 26/10/2017 21:26

Or rather than you being pregnant / peri, he might just be smelly and gross :-). If it helps though I had to kindly tell dh to eat more quietly recently. He did too. I am of that age (peri) but he was definitely loud! It wasn't just me.

AcrossthePond55 · 26/10/2017 21:31

It could just be one of those marital 'blips' where suddenly everything about them is irritating. DH and I have been married 30+ years and occasionally I'll have a period where he can do nothing right as far as I'm concerned. No rhyme or reason. It just happens and then just as quickly it's over. If it's that, it'll fade, give it some time.

OR is it possible that there have been underlying problems in your marriage that have simmered long enough and are now coming to a boil?

I've never heard of early pregnancy turning someone off their DH. I never had that happen to me.
