I thought it might be stress as we have two kids and she has a stressful job and i also thought that the fact it was that time of the month which it was but she said she doesn't know. She was like that for the rest of the day but obviously had to act alright in front of the kids.Later on when the youngest (13 months) had gone to bed and the oldest (17 yrs) had gone out to her friends for the night, my wife came and sat with me and we just had a cuddle for about 2 hours till we went to bed.She has been under alot of stress recently and i was working late last thursday and she and two other people she works with had stayed behind to do some jobs. When she got home she seemed a bit better. I saw one of her friends the next day who was with her working late that night with her and told me that she got terribly upset because she just felt so down and didn't know why but after she had had a good cry she felt better.I was told she talked about me alot and how she misses me which is weird because we are very close and that she really loves me but wishes she could show me more. Now i thought all of this was abit crazy but it would make sense as she couldn't stop kissing me that night i found her upset.I don't know if i should ask her about this or how to bring it up but i have noticed she does get moody and very emotional around the time shes on her period as she gets stressed at me a lot and looks as if she wants to cry.How can i help her? Is this a normal thing for a woman? She is the same age as me by the way.

Its the crying thing, perfectly normal, the best thing u can do for her is be there with a box of tissues and a big hug, that wrks all the time :)

She needs to see her doctor. He may be able to prescribe something to help with her PMS. She sounds like her hormones are slightly out of sync. Encourage her to go, she'll feel better once she gets checked out.
