If it hasn't arrivedwhen I go round should I warn him I'm due on or not mention anything and just hope it doesn't? What do the guys think? It's just casual and been like this on and off for a year.

But I also agree with others, women have periods and men need to stop being so grossed out by them. If you like a woman enough to sleep with her, then accept that she'll be bleeding 5 days a month!

Glad I informed him though, I'd be worried otherwise!

Personally if you have been at it with him over a year... I'd call and say "mother nature is due to arrive this weekend, would you like to reschedule?"
some men don't mind sex on a woman's period, others do.
if you don't mind, then the ball's in his court.
if you don't want to then change "would you like to reschedule to "we need to reschedule"
you are both adults
you are intimately physical
you are friends
he has to be aware of a woman's cycle therefore i see no need to be coy.

It doesn't seem like something worth putting too much thought into. If you're bleeding too much, don't have sex with him. If it's just a little bit and you feel comfortable, let him make the call. If you're not bleeding yet proceed as usual.

I wouldn't go into talking about my period, no way! I'd just say something came up and reschedule for next weekend. That sort of thing is TMI for a casual FWB unless he's a gynecologist, and maybe not even then!

If you know you are going to get moody and bass mood swings you might want to tell him so he can be a bit more understanding. But it is your choice after all

Both were glad I'd rescheduled. I don't know if you're also friends with this guy or not, but definitely call him and say something like, "Hey, my cycle is due right around the time we've planned. Is this an issue or should we try for another time?" He definitely deserves to know, getting hot and heavy and then blurting out that it's time for your cycle at the last second is a total buzz kill.
