I can’t sleep so MNing in bed. DH asleep next to me. I am on my side turned away from him due to light from phone and suddenly a very loud and long fart (machine gun variety) escapes . Took me rather by surprise or I would have tried to suppress it!

DH jumps up, realises what it was and honestly you’d think I’d crapped the bed or something Hmm. He is disgusted and absolutely furious I woke him up as he has to be up for work early, as if I meant to, and has stormed off to sleep downstairs!

AIBU to think he’s being an arse!

I've been married for 8 years, together for 10 and I've never farted in front of my husband. Reading this i feel like I'm in a minority Grin

Laughing such at this. I was walking with my nephew and my mum and me and my mum both heard what we thought was some one saying helllllllo in a really weird voice we both turned to look it turned out to be my lovely nephew doing a nice long fart🤣

He is so being unreasonable! DH and I try and out fart each other sometimes

Waking yourself up because you farted so loudly is another one.

Laughing so much at this thread. Such a pleasant change to the usual prim and proper one must only pass wind silently in the bathroom attitude of MN

@TwoLeftSocksWithHoles

I understand your issue (no pun intended) I would suggest you get one those rubbery shower things that attach to bath taps. Remove the bit where the two pipes connect into one and discard, then insert the single pipe into your rear and drap the pipe out of the side of the bed. Should you then fart, it is directed out of the bed. The shower head has the added benefit of dispersing the flatulence over a wider area which will reduce (but no eliminate) any noise. If you know something is 'building' and you learnt how to play the recorder at school you may able to knock out a passable 'Frère Jacques' by deftly converting the relevant holes of the shower head. It may take a bit of practice - it did for me - but it is well worthwhile as early sales of my LP are testament to. (Regettably my LP 'Blowing in the Wind' is currently unavailable)
