How long did it take for you to be on 'farting' terms with your DPs

[fuckyeahpercywigwam]

This is not really an AIBU, but inspired by the hilarious 'he shat in the garden' thread.

My friend's daughter has been married for seven years...child-free..but her and her DH have never farted in each other's hearing. Nope. They discreetly remove themselves to the loo.

I cannot believe this.

Probably early on in the relationship but I trump when I laugh and he's funny 🤷‍♀️
But I don't intentionally trump around anyone if I can avoid it

I wouldn't trust anyone that doesn't fart in their partner's presence.
Uptight control freaks

Wow! I’m really shocked at how many people don’t fart in front of their partner!
If my DH and I took ourselves off to the loo every time we needed to trump we’d never see each other! 😂
I do suffer from IBS though, so as PP said, if I don’t let it go I really suffer!
It’s just the same as doing a cough or sneeze IMO.

@GreenTeaBlackCoffeeAndRedWine

All those saying you never do, you do know pretty much everyone farts in their sleep?

3.5 years with current DP, I mean if I can avoid it I do, but there's no shame in it. He does in front of me regularly. Don't care.

Yeah, of course it has happened in sleep, we just don’t let rip in front of each other if we can help it. Neither of us are ashamed of it, nor are we repressed as another poster implied, it’s just something we prefer to do in private.

It’s just the same as doing a cough or sneeze IMO

Not really. I’d happy cough (covid aside) or sneeze at work, when out for dinner, on a Zoom meeting, in an interview but I wouldn’t obviously fart in any of those situations.

We've always farted in front of each other. I don't fart that often, so DH and the DC feel the need to comment every time I do.

I think the icebreaker was when DH farted in the bath and I shouted up from the kitchen "I heard that".

I never do and find it totally gross and disrespectful. I honestly cannot believe previous posters that say they actual poo in front of oh? I can't think of much worse.

We don't fart in front of each other or use the bathroom if the other is in there.
Really couldn't find it funny or amusing at all and just wouldn't get into that situation with a partner

Together 10 years, married 6- we never do it.

A few months in by accident while asleep in a tent . Gave him the green light to let rip whenever he wanted and our relationship's never been the same since.

We both have bowel issues so the occasional one slips out, but we don't do it purposely or find it funny! I have an ensuite bathroom though so we both know what goes on 🤷🏻‍♀️.
It's normal, it's human. It's not disgusting or rude, but neither is it hilarious or "a sign of intimacy" it's just a bodily function that occurs.

Quite 😂

I find all the people holding their farts in very odd!

My husband has seen every single part of me.

He's seen me with food poisoning in a 3x3m room with a curtain for the 'bathroom' door on holiday, he's seen me post-surgery, he's nursed me through various disgusting illnesses and injuries... if a fart put him off me or vice versa I'd be very confused.

Couldn't agree more.

Wouldn't occur to me to care!

Oh believe it!

It's a Normal bodily function!
Passing wind is normal, not amusing or embarrassing. Just normal.
We are relaxed in each other's company.

I have no clue. neither of us have ever worried about such things so probably before we even started dating.

lucky really, because while in labour with DS5 I released chemical warfare grade toxic hell which made DH gag and the midwives' eyes water and I had no remorse.

Married 10 years, 3 dc and we don’t fart in front of each other. We pee in front of each other but not fart, unless it’s when we’re asleep. I’m convinced that dh does it and blames the dog though!

Exactly. My DH has seen it come out both ends simultaneously when I had food poisoning and me projectile vomit whilst pushing a child out of my vagina. A fart is nothing

We did pretty quickly. It's a fart, we are not shitting ourselves😁 Draw a line at peeing and no2. Bathroom is private.
I also had some ridiculous reactions to bakery products for a while so I would be walking to the toilet (as if there was a time lol) so often, it would just be ridiculous

@frutyloops

Married 12 years. We never do. I Think it is disgusting and respectless. We also go to the bathroom alone. It would kill any sexual spark in me.

Agreed

We have been married 10 years, DH woke me up in the middle of the night last night because he farted so loudly

Might help that we have a Family guy sense of humour😂
