Well he was breathing which was enough to annoy me but he then decided to moan about the housework even after i'd said I had been in agony all day with stomach cramps.

I let rip big time, did a mini flounce off upstairs for about 2 seconds and then came back and let rip again.

If he dares apologise before tea time tommorow i may have to kill him.

I hate to hear my dh chew at these times - the sound makes me want to shove his fork so far down his throat it impales his piles!!

Isn't it worse when they say patronisingly, "Expect it's the hormones" ?
I want to scream then.

ROFL Mytwopenceworth

We've been together for nearly 10 yrs and he was married before so you'd think he'd know the warning signals wouldn't you.

HRHQoQ · 18/10/2005 20:06

yes - but mine are slightly irregulat (vary from 26-36 days) so he's never entirely when it is (come to think of it neither am I LOL).

Now the bloke that came to fix the drain earlier obviously knew cos he told me he may not be able to fix it and then changed his mind when he saw my face, and he'd only just met me.

Do you find that BECAUSE your DH knows that you are hormonal he intentionally winds you up?
He says that he isn't doing it on purpose and that it is me being over sensitive.
I swear that he starts conversations about money problems or relationship stuff only during my period

Dh only knows I've got my period if I say "not tonight darling". He happily will buy tampons and so on, but has no clue that my weeping fit or stamping feet have anything to do with hormones. Probably better that way.

I'm the same Nutcackle and DP wanted me to be all loving last night. WTF????? Does he not realise the last thing you want is to be pawed and groped when you are hormonal.

He has suggested I write my "bad days" on the calendar now!!! Trouble is I don't know myself until one day a wave of fury just hits me and the nearest person bears the brunt of it. DP thinks its just aimed at him but the kids have to put up with it too, bless em!!!!
