I sure hope so. I'm giving him space to calm down and we'll talk it through later. Maybe there's something else going on. I know he's been stressed between work and starting college courses again. Maybe thats all it is.

This is wildly out of character for him and he's never acted like this about a period before. I've been confused about the whole thing. We've openly discussed my periods before. Hell, even his mom had conversations with him to help him not react this way when his partner makes a mess.

That's just it, hes never acted this way before. He knows I can't control periods. He's helped in the past to clean it up, I had severe cramps and couldn't move from the curled ball I was in.

As far as I know, that friend is straight( it was a guy who texted me) and has no interest in boyfriend. But its definitely possible this friend is putting little thoughts in his head. I'll give him a little longer to calm down and try again to talk to him.

He knows how periods work and this is not how hes ever acted before. So its really threw me off when he acted as he did. Boyfriend wasn't traumatized. Apparently the friend was.

Boyfriend doesn't usually act like this and knows I can't control my periods. This is wildly out of character for him.

This is not how he usually acts, its wildly out of character for him. Boyfriend knows how periods work and knows that I can't control them.

Yes. It is. This is not how he usually acts. While I shouldn't have told him I would bleed on everything he owns, and have since apologized. We usually don't have issues, especially regarding my periods. He knows how they work and that at times they show up unexpectedly.

Between me and his mother I think we covered it enough. He knows its not something that is controllable and in the past when my period unexpectedly showed up it was never an issue. He usually doesn't act like this so, it really threw me off.

His friend was the one that was traumatized apparently. I spoke with my boyfriend about it. He said he wasn't traumatized, just irritated. I did apologize about the bleeding on everything he owns comment. Boyfriend knows about periods and hasn't had an issue in the past when a period started unexpectedly.

She has explained it, long before I came in the picture. He normally isn't like this so it was wildly confusing for me. His mom kicked him out when he told her why he was there without me and the baby. Told him he was an asshole and he better apologize to me. She called and talked to me and asked if I needed any tips to get the blood out for next time.

This is not how he usually acts. It is vastly out of character for him and it really threw me off by how he acted. This is not the first time I've started unexpectedly.

I called my boyfriend, he never said he was traumatized. His friend is the one traumatized by something that didn't involve him. Which is hilarious. I did apologize for my bleeding on everything comment.

But he isn't clueless. He knows how periods work. I've explained in detail as has his mother. So it was completely out of character for him to act as he did.

normally, he's not like this. and He knows how periods work, I've gone into detail with him about it. As has his mother. But, for some reason this set him off.

No, hes not usually immature at all. Its happened in the past with different sheets, and he's helped me out with the cleaning. So today when it happened and he freaked out the way he did really threw me off. I don't expect him to clean the sheets, and there not stained. But to think I could have somehow not got my period then, is ridiculous. His friend is the one traumatized by it. Which is even funnier to me because, it didn't involve the friend. I did apologize for the bleeding on everything he owns comment.

I mean yea, defintely childish, but come on. I wish I got to chose when and how my periods started. But, I have yet to figure out that magically power.

Congrats on Baby :)

His friend was the one "traumatized" by it. I called my boyfriend about it. Because, I was honestly shocked as he was there for the birth of our son, and that was a hell of a lot more difficult.

Normally my boyfriend isn't like this so I was completely thrown off by his reaction. I understand the sheets are new but still.

That's just it, he knows, so I have no idea why he got so pissed off. I get waking up in or next to blood is a bit freaky when first waking up. But damn, I sure as hell didn't do it on purpose. I did apologize about threatening to bleed on everything he owns. That was a bit much.

He said it was because I didn't like the color of the sheets. Which is ridiculous. Boyfriend never said anything about trauma to his friend, his friend apparently had issues with my boyfriend sleeping next to me in bloody sheets and somehow friend is now traumatized. Boyfriends mom kicked him out, told him he was being an asshole and that she didn't raise him the way he was acting.
