A MEN'S THREAD : How to Deal With Wife's PMS.

Yep,... once a month we men need to face it, our love and patient are tested. Adding salt on your food at the table could be dangerous. I love my wife and I try to make those days easier for both of us. Cook some fine Italian speciality or help a bit more with her chores seems to work in my case.

So ATS brothers I ask you how do you deal with it?

Ha ha ha ha ha.........wait until the menopause.

a reply to: Trueman

You don't... Go out to the back yard!

PS.... I've learned to say nothing.... Nod my head "yes"...and just smile at her a lot.

You know there's such a thing as MALE menopause and menstrual cycles too, right?

"MEN---A---PAUSE"...and "MEN---STRANGLE"...just keep quiet, smile, nod n say yes to everything!

I'm with ya bud!!!!

I tell her I ate an extra large Chipolte Burrito for lunch which is like being in the 3rd trimester for a woman. I also have to pass it which is equivalent to child birth so PMS, although discomforting, I am going through the male version of child birth so put a sock in it.

Soon you will have to come back, she will pretend she's sleeping and wait until you go bed and close your eyes. It's a trap and no way out.

C'mon man! My husband regularly comes home in a #ty mood. How is that any different? We deal with your crap EVERY DAY, yet you choose to label us as the problem because some women are bitchy? If I come across as a bitch, it's often because of threads like this.

Chores? Really? I sense a problem right there.

I just pretend it's not happening and then, when I get a frying pan to the face, walk away slowly and retreat to my 'manly place' (doing the dishes in a huff).

There's nothing you can say to a lady to make her less frustrated really, and honestly why try? It's something that happens regardless of situation - adding yourself to it just makes it complicated. When me'lady is going through it, I honestly just carry on like normal (I'm quite helpful anyway) and don't draw attention to it.

You're going to receive flak for saying chores by the way. This is now SJWville! And your titles lets them get easily offended!

I get a new one when I want one around.

Oh, God. This thread is going to go well.

In order to consider your post valid, we must hear what your husband has to say about it.

I agree. It certainly will not degenerate into some sort of male/female verbal fisticuffs if I have anything to do with it.

This is a simple one, get your pen out and write this down....ready?. put on a chick flick,give her a massage, bring her many glasses of wine,make for her or order her a top notch dinner, tell her she's amazing,and make sure...that nothing! and I mean nothing! stresses her out in the slightest pull this off through the entire cycle and i'd say you got it down.

Oh stop. If you are anything like me, you spend a couple days really short tempered and feeling like crap and you should be well aware of that even though it doesn't always help you control it.

I would do that but I don't want to sound more whipped then someone just getting off a round the world cruise on the Amistad.
