gonna be honest here, been pretty cranky the last few days and then i finally got my period and it's like...
EPIPHANY.
all is well, im not messed up, my uterus is.
ANYWAY, to all you blokes out there who are clueless about pms (pre period in other words),
let me enlighten you a little so that you wont get killed again and again on a monthly basis by your girlfriend, mum, sis, teacher, someone, stranger- a girl.
Pms in a nut shell:
pissed at men syndrome.
Best definition i could find so far, though it's not exactly true that it's just specifically at men. Basically, when a girl is pmsing, she's mad at anyone, everyone and anything and everything. im serious. she could be mad at the grass for being green- and she cant even explain why ._.
But the difference with the grass and men is that a) Grass wouldn't react b) some guys are clueless
So it's practically kamikaze if a guy who knows a girl is pmsing, fails miserably to be tactful, and fool around with his words... he gets his ass kicked. or he ends up with a wontsstopcrying girl for the rest of the day.
which is pretty much why....
AVOIDANCE DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
hahhahahahaha.
im kidding, sometimes it does.
but it doesn't necessarily work and might even back fire in this case.
5 golden rules to save yourself from your girl/mum
(without escaping)
1. Listen.
We all have moody meh days and they suck right? Just imagine that she is having a series of these days and she cant control them nor is she aware (lucky if she is) that she is having them.
Listening to her just lets her have an outlet to rid of all those vent up anger.
and if you dont interrupt you'll be on the good books, and not the rest of the world which she's mad about.
2. Avoid mildly-sensitive topics.
The thing about pms is that things get blown out of proportion.
Although she might be fine with some stuff on a normal day and can take a joke,
it wouldnt seem to be a joke on days when she's pmsing.
and it would take an awful lot of persuasion to comfort her after.
so take the wise road, and avoid sensitive stuff during this time.
3. Be mr nice guy.
By this i mean that you can attempt to be exceptionally kind and nice to her during this time.
it's not really unfair to you if you think about it.
It's like investment.
You be mr nice guy,
She realises you're the sweetest guy on earth,
she treats you twice as nice after she gets out of her period!
Get her a cup of warm water,
offer to massage her aching back for a little,
anything!
investment, guys.
4. Know the cycle.
I know it sounds insane, and like weird but hey,
being prepared is half the battle won.
To break it down for you guys.
Day 1-7 : Period time
needs warm water and lots of back rubs.
gets dizzy spells a lot.
cramps are horrid.
think muscle aches after you gym except its from the bone. (x 50)
the backbone, and the stomach especially.
Day 7-21: HAPPY TIME.
Congrats, this is the time when your investment reaps profit. Enjoy.
Day 21-25: PMS starts.
Get yourself ready for more emotional turmoil.
Day 25-28(or 30) : Full on battle PMS.
Good luck.
5. DEAL WITH IT
I guess that's the best advice i can give to save your butt.
and actually try not to be an asshole???
oh and try to imagine you're her.
i dont know, i cant think of anything else x.x
Goodluck to all of you, hopefully it actually saves some of you all trouble.
LOL.
