You know you're ready to propose when...

The woman in the relationship starts farting in your presence.

Think this is a silly idea? I’ve shared this with a number of other people, who once they think about it, agree.

Women tend not to fart in front of others. I realize that’s not the same for men… but if the woman is comfortable enough in your presence to let out some gas, you KNOW she trusts you enough not to embarass her about it.

So… all you men contemplating proposing to your girlfriends… wait until she starts firing up!!

I have never been comfortable doing that in front of anybody. Not even my husband. Sometimes it slips out and I turn red. I don’t go to the bathroom in front of him either. tjough the day we got married. We got to the reception and were sneaking cigerettes in the bathroom. I had to pee, BAD! So I peed in front of my husband of 2 hours. I was so proud!!! :smiley:

Oh boy. looks like I am about three and a half years overdue. I was taking dumps with the bathroom door open 4 weeks into our deal. It took her a few months to warm up with the farting, though. :slight_smile:
(TMI or post? ahhh WTF. post it is…)

Am I really the first one to make the connection to baglady’s sig line? Decompressing, indeed.

No wonder women always develop headaches around me. It’s not that I repulse them ,it is because they are holding in their gas. No I feel better about myself.

I agree 100%. I’ve always said that you only fart in front of those you love. I fart in front of my SO and he farts in front of me. My 3 year old makes sure that everyone knows when she or her 1 year old brother farts. (I’m so proud) :smiley:

I’ll only pee in front of him when it comes to using the bathroom though… some things are just better left unseen.

If Baglady is letting herself go around Burning man, doesn’t it sound like it could be an explosive relationship?

Oh great. Don’t ya just hate it when you make a fart-like post in public? Sorry about my empty post there. Oy vey.

As I was gonna say, in scuba-diving terms “decompression” is also referred to as “outgassing”!!! Bwaaaaaa hahahahahaah [it refers to your body getting rid of the nitrogen that’s dissolved in your bloodstream]

– Baglady, still outgassi…um… decompressing! :smiley:

You know you’re ready to propose when her father gets out the shotgun and says, “You got mah daughter in a family way, you dirty dawg!”

Oh Snooooopy, I didn’t know you were there when my ex proposed!

One should never overtly blast one in front of one’s SO. The PC thing to do is sneak them out and blame them on the dog if anyone smells them, even though you both know the truth.

I thought it was after the woman’s father said: “You’re WHAT?!?!”

You know you are ready to propose when she starts planning the wedding anyway.

(Well, not quite, but if I haden’t she would have started anyway and told me what date on which to wear my black socks and show up to the church.)
