Was my new boyfriend disrespectful or misplaced humour - incident during sex

A bit grossed out by something my BF of about 4 months did last night. We have a really jokey relationship but I think he crossed the line.

We were being intimate and he let out a really exaggerated fart then burst out laughing. He obviously meant to do it and thought I’d find it funny. I stopped what we were doing as the mood was gone and it stunk. He said sorry after but I feel like even with a jokey relationship, that’s going too far?

That’s disgusting, I would be horrified. You should say do that again and we’re finished.

BlueTitShark · 12/04/2025 11:33

Extremely disrespectful.

And I imagine most of the people who voted YABU haven’t seen your update…..

Hopefully not or it’s just ridiculously low standards

You should have gone one further and shat on his head.

Vile pig. Dump.

I don't like a partner farting deliberately around me, never mind during sex. It would turn me right off. An accidental slip out is forgiveable but an unintentional fart, especially during a 69, is just horrid and revolting.

viques · 12/04/2025 11:50

Yuch. Smells are particulate so he was giving you a poo facial.

Upsidedownsides · 12/04/2025 11:54

Gross. Bin him. See if he’s laughing then. Prick

Buildingthefuture · 12/04/2025 11:58

During a 69?? Christ, no way, that’s rank! Immediate mood killer at the very least.

I very much doubt he did it on purpose. If a fart is coming through then all you can do is release it and laugh. Farting during sex is quite common isn't it? Obviously it stank but I don't think he was doing it to upset you deliberately?!
Not saying it's not off-putting but it's the human body, people do fart!

Hold it! I bet if his celebrity crush was going down on him he would manage to hold it

Not great at the best of times but gross during sex.

Amz98 · 12/04/2025 10:42

TMI probably so apologies but we were doing 69 😑

He did it next to your head/near your face?! No, I couldn't continue with him. It was intentional too. Disrespectful

lowlight · 12/04/2025 12:03

I would find this revolting and not remotely a turn on. Ditch him.

Oh that's awful, bad enough if it was an accident and he was mortified but to do it on purpose, absolutely disgusting. Did you keep going after? I would have been out of there!

Deebee90 · 12/04/2025 12:05

Nope straight away it would be over for me. He’s a disgusting pig. Yes people fart and stuff but to do it deliberately during that act of sex is vile.

pictoosh · 12/04/2025 12:06

Yes, disrespectful, childish, smelly and deeply unsexy.
He has no respect for himself, never mind you.
Tell him to never do that again or finito.

MyKingdomForACat · 12/04/2025 12:15

😱

youlied · 12/04/2025 12:17

You aren’t dating my ex are you? He behaved like this!

BobbyBiscuits · 12/04/2025 12:20

lunaemma · 12/04/2025 11:59

Haha. I honestly don't think it's possible to hold it sometimes mid coitus. I guess he should've just leapt up at the exact moment and rushed to the bathroom, but his mind was probably elsewhere!

I am not excusing it as it's off-putting. But these things do happen and it's better to try and take it with humour.
If she farted she'd not want him to consider leaving her over it, surely?

Ellie56 · 12/04/2025 12:30

Ewww! Gross.

KhakiOrca · 12/04/2025 12:31

If he deliberately done it during g a sixty-niner, then that's gross 😝
But I don't do 69s anymore and haven't done since my 20s lol

I think you would react differently though
if I accidentally did it I would be horrified, apologising and bright red probably

Yeah, I think I would be a bit embarrassed but I wouldn't let it spoil the vibe, if possible? I'm not sure now...lol

I’d find that a massive turn off, It’s also a sigh of things to come, as he gets to know you better his behaviour will probably worsen.
If it had been accidental that would have been a different thing

Oh that’s disgusting of him to do that, especially when your face is in the vicinity! 🤢

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 12/04/2025 12:43

Not this AGAIN.
