My period is due when I've arranged to see my fwb

Question - (25 October 2013) 8 Answers - (Newest, 26 October 2013)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I'm supposed to be going round to my fwb's place this weekend but I'm due my period within the next few days. If it hasn't arrived

when 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.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (26 October 2013):

You could use a cervical cap or diaphragm or soft cup to cover your cervix...then there wouldn't be blood coming out while you're having sex...

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!

Thanks for your answers people. I text him and it doesn't seem to bother him :)

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

So_Very_Confused agony auntPersonally 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.

If you have slept with him before you might hint around at it. But if not it is TMI.

YouWish agony auntI 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!

Well I think that you don't need to tell him unless you want to, or feel the need to for example.. 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

A female reader, anonymous, writes (25 October 2013):

I've had this happen twice when I planned a FWB "meeting". Both times, I had to cancel and later told the guys what was going on. 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.
