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?!

I think people who fart all the time have poor diets. If you eat a low carb diet you hardly fart at all, I e found.

Ex used to fart then waft it towards his face to smell it. Yuk. It was constant. It was probably all ingrained into the sofa.

Partner now has accidentally let them go and apologises. I don’t. He’s heard me once in my sleep.

I'm reading this while my (doc) DH cleans puss out of a cyst thing near my arse.. I have a nice bum according to him so he doesn't mind..plus it's avoiding surgery in a sensitive area for me, so win.

Fart in front of your DH and get over yourselves (in the nicest way possible!) we're all just bodies.

Fuck this hurts tho 😥

15 years and I never have. Pretty impressive actually

I once farted discreetly near to the entrance to a lift I was waiting for while at college. I was horrified as I saw two women from my class walking towards me...we got chatting and then as we got into the lift one of them starts to complain about the "dreadful smell"... the other woman agreed with her and said it was worse where she'd been standing by the bin...I couldn't stop laughing, so much so I accidentally farted very loudly inside the lift...my cover was well & truly blown...we emerged from the lift in hysterics.

For context, I was 44 and they were 42 & 37 respectively...we really didn't deserve the title "mature" students.

Hidradenitis?

@Lemsipper i have also never pooed. When I was in labour the second time around I started violently screaming for my husband to get out for seemingly no apparent reason ( I thought I was going to poo) he still talks about how strange it was when I turned against him for no reason 😂

Horrendous, more like.

Completely agree with you, OP. It’s offensive and unfunny when done indiscriminately.

Odd excuse. We also all just poo but I bet you don't just squirt one out while cuddling with your partner on the sofa.

I think you're right. Maintain your dignity.

🤣🤣🤣

I would never intentionally fart at all!
But I do try and hold it in and go to the bathroom when I feel a bit gaseous. Mine tend to stink but not make noise. Gross but true!

Pilonidal cyst/ abscess probs. Had a bartholins abscess and pre sepsis earlier this year.. have an MRI on Saturday and meantime DH is using his adult medicine skills. I have learnt to be chill about this. But god it's painful!

Wtf is wrong with people. Just fart, its what we do.

Reminds me of a pseudo-posh elderly lady I used to live nextdoor to, who was visiting me one afternoon...she farted and without blinking an eyelid said "pardon me, I knew there was something I meant to do earlier". 😫

To this day I don't know if she meant break wind or visit the bathroom.

This is all down to know your tribe.

Some couples are ok with it, some are nit. As long as they're not mismatched, it's not a problem just a difference.

Personally, I'm in the "nothing is sexier than smelling a stinky fart or hearing your loved one take a shit - NOT" camp. After so many years together, the odd one slips out and it's neither embarrassing nor funny; just not a big deal but not something we'd care to embrace. There is no shame in any bodily function but for us discretion keeps the sexual attraction alive.

Its a test of love to fart in front your significant other and know they still love you for better or worse!!

I have to confess I've forced a Dutch oven when I'm feeling really evil.

We do but given you are both respecting each other in the same way, it's all good!

Letting rip in front of each other is as far as we take it. Our own bathroom moments are very much private. We do live in a very small flat though and I can smell him iykwim.

Last night I had such a bad stomach ache that i thought it could of been something serious a few good farts and I was fine, sorry but in our home you are free to be human.

We fart freely in our house. We now have an 8 week old baby who suffers with terrible trapped wind so every fart he produces is cause for great celebration! Bicycle legs every night and whooping and cheering at every little fart.

Christ, if I took myself off to another room every time I needed to fart I'd never see him! 😂

I would explode.
Home is where you can relax and that means not giving yourself bellyache trying to hold in farts.
