Not farting in front of DH

[Dancingatthepinkponyclub]

Not really an AIBU but I love hearing what others think!

Have been with my DH for 18 years and have never intentionally farted in front of him. I mean I know it’s impossible to hold every fart in but he’s never actually heard one! If I need to I would go in another room or be discreet. My mum and sister are the same and a couple of friends. Also my DH is the same and won’t in front of me unless he does by mistake!

I know it’s natural and everyone does it but I’d never want to endure someone’s else’s fart nor make them endure mine! It hardly makes you attractive does it! That being said I wouldn’t fart in front of anyone… I mean maybe the dog!

what do you think?!

YANBU - it’s gross and unnecessary.

These posts just get funnier and funnier 🤣🤣😂😂

Pooticles.

Weeing in front of each other is fine, poo no. It's the smell that bothers me, I find it really off putting. I think I'm very sensitive to strong smells. I found it gross when my exH pooed while I was in the bath, didn't want to even open that up as a possibility this time round.

My partner farts all the time. I find it hilarious (perhaps childish sense of humour!!).

I try my best not to fat in front of him, but it does happen on occasion. He finds it gross, so I only do it on purpose if we've had an argument. Just to piss him off a bit more.

I’ve never farted in front of my long term partner - been together 7 years

I disagree that everyone does it. My teenage crush certainly didn’t do it !

I knew a differnt version...

Beans beans are good for the heart
The more you eat, the more you fart
The more you fart, the more you eat,
The longer you sit on the toilet seat.

😄

We've done all that for each other too, but we still would try not to fart in front of each other as it is not pleasant. If it happens, it happens but we try to avoid it to be nice to each other.

I find it mind blowing that anyone actually does that infront of other people, let alone people that are meant to find you attractive. My husband has only ever accidentally done it too or if he’s been asleep. I’ve had two kids and yet to slip up 😂

That’s completely different. Crapping yourself when you’ve got something as vile as campylobacter is not something anyone can help.

Never ever broken wind in front of anyone.

Oh no, only one at a time in the bathroom in my house. 🤣😆😆

It’s a farty party in this house!

I'm happy to be in a relationship where we try to spare each other from the stench of farts. Occasionally they slip out of course, and that's no big deal - we're not prudes. But we both take some care not to let rip when the other one is close by.

People who overshare their bowel and toileting habits, directly or by incessantly talking about it, are pretty tiresome IMO and I would never be attracted to someone who does it.

Yea, Illness is entirely different- try having cancer and cdiff at the same time.

I'm the same OP! 20 Years together. Once I thought he had left the room (very early in our relationship) and i let rip and heard him say 'eugh' so I pretended i was asleep 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’m with you, OP. 12 years together, a DD and we have never intentionally done it in front of each other. Obviously the odd one has slipped out, and it can’t be helped when you’re asleep.

My dad used to do it when we were eating dinner and it was fucking disgusting, absolutely zero respect. I thank the high heavens I married a man completely different!

We are very chilled about farting in front of each other but we are also pretty sensible. I think our boundaries dropped a lot during my two very close together pregnancies as I was really very poorly in both and the meds caused a lot of uncomfortable gas. I really couldn’t help it and then he just got on board.

That being said we don’t fart during meals or intimacy and wouldn’t let rip whilst cuddled up watching a movie etc. If there’s adequate space between us in rooms we do. We do sometimes in the car too if we really need to but it’s standard practice to put our window down for a minute of so to ‘air it out’. I’m happy with our level but each to their own.

Wait. So the non-farters have never experienced the huge entertainment value of a game of 'Guess my fart'?

Me Neither ! Non Farter and proud !

I would never intentionally fart and do leave the room if I can... But it would almost be impossible for DH to have never heard me fart in 11 years.

I'm sick at the moment with an awful cough and did a little fart when coughing earlier.
DH thought it was hilarious because I am always telling him off for farting lol.

He does fart around me and I hate it so much. He does try to go and fart in the bathroom or another room, but he is much more relaxed about it than I am.

Farts are a normal human function, but I find it deeply repulsive when people do them on purpose around others. Very teenage boy gross.

Wait so it's ok for him to do it but he doesn't want you to because he finds it gross? Fuck that.

thank you !

I would find it very hard to hold in farts @Dancingatthepinkponyclub That said, I don't fart THAT much in front of DH. (Nor him in front of me.)

Am I the only one who read Pooticles and thought "Aw, they sound quite cute"....
