Coming from a 12 year marriage where my ex and I didn’t try to solve our problems constructively, I am very appreciative of ** Drachillix’s ** willingness to talk about what we want from our relationship. Except on day 23 of every 3 or 4 cycles. I must be cuddled, complimented and cossetted. I turn into a needy, clingy dependant unrecognizable to even myself. Paranoia, sensitivity and inconsistancy are central in my dealings with him. I know I’m a pretty good package, but sometimes I wonder that he doesn’t run screaming.
Of course you may! Wow, I just finished posting to another thread about how I feel ignored, and now I see this. I am really honored. If I had PMS right now, I’d probably be weeping with joy…
I thought I’d share my experience of what seemed to be the nearest a male can get to PMS (cos I just know you ladies want to hear it). Simply, day three of nicotine withdrawl – that stage when your mind is deceiving you and you’re not quite in rational control of what you say, think or do. Got so say it’s a weird sensation – you know* why* you are as you are but it doesn’t make any difference.
If it’s like that, I wish you all well. And, yeah, isn’t it just awful when you can’t find burgendy shoes …
I hate it when I am being a bitch and people say, "Is it that time of the month? I makes me want to sock them. I especially hate it when guys say it. Like they could possibly understand.
Oh no, I am threatening to punch people now wonder nobody likes me:(
But wait there is always my dog he always loves me no matter what:)
But right now he wont let me pet him. He must not like me either:(
I generally don’t get any more sensitive than I am usually. (This may be because it is impossible for me to get more hyper sensitive. I’m kinda high strung and emotional normally.)
I do get a lot of pain. Have I mentioned that high strung people do not deal with stress/pain well? I don’t. My usual super sensitive self can realize that while I may feel ignored and unloved because my mom forgot to come home when she said she would or someone forgets to call, it was just oversight and everything is probably cool. However, being in pain just gets rid of that “deal with it” barrier.
So. All my many emotions that threaten to engulf the world on a normal basis usually do. Except without logic. Its like being four again. No self control and no one understands. Similar screaming fits and tearful incoherance may result.
However, when I’m being perfectly reasonable and still pissed, if someone tries to pass it off as a monthly deal they get to eat their own entrails. (And if it is a PMS deal, they will still get to eat their own entrails. I’ll just apologize later.)
