Same here.

Birth control is 99% effective too, but the idiots who skip pills bring that down to like nothing.

Busting a condom brings it down as well...

I have one kid. No Johnny Appleseed or "Hands Across America" for me!

When mixed with alcohol, it is possible.

I'm talking about an actual product failure -- where the user did everything right and still the condom busted.

Turns out she thought I was using her for sex. lol

So because I didn't get upset, at least not to her, about her not doing anything that night, I proved that I wasn't just using her for sex. Now let's just say that when that time comes around, I'm the center of attention.

Nope, having a great morning. Just still find it funny that after 8 pages of responses, you still don't get it.

The thing is, I do get it. You see, I made the right choices. Things worked out for the best. Everyone is happy, including her.

Try re-reading the last few pages of the thread, basically everyone here thought that my mindset was eventually correct and my thinking properly developed towards the end.

No it's not. You just assume that her period is just a little blood. Talk to a woman and ask her how she feels when she has her period. For most, it's an emotional rollercoaster and I would imagine that the last thing on her mind is playing with your free willy.

But I just posted that this was not the problem or the reason for her not doing it.

A good amount of women actually get hornier when on the rag. The large increase and decrease of hormones has there labidoes on the fritz and the only thing on the brain is sucking and dropping ketchup on the dog!

But yes theres the other half of it where women feel like dog shit on their period. Stay away from those.

Now you better pray she does not see this thread - or you are busted for being mad she didn't do anything.

For what it is worth - appears to me you are using her and she just hasn't discovered it yet

Way too many psychologists on this site. How did this thread turn into me using my girlfriend for sex? Calm down a little people.

Not trying to analyze you at all...... you ask for an opinion on whether you are being selfish or not. People told you that Yes - you are. Then you claimed you could not understand why people were saying you were - then you agreed once the response was overwhelming. Then your TRUE colors came out - once you figured out she was playing you for that one night - you do not care if you are selfish or not. You are now the star of the show...... the point you missed that others are referring too is this - you are still SELFISH and not concerned with her needs.

It does not take a PhD to determine what is going on here. You obviously felt like your reaction was selfish or you would have never asked......

On the calm down comment - what does this mean? You asked for opinions on a forum, people respond and you say calm down. No one seems uptight, upset, etc. Seems you do not like the response, so say calm down..... makes no sense to me.

It turned into you using her for sex when YOU brought it up as how she felt. I just happen to agree with her. Too bad she is fooled now - by one night.

The calm down part meant that people seem to be reading too much into it.

See, re-read your first line, my question was not whether or not I was being selfish, the question was whether she was or not. Then people gave their opinion, which after some thought I agreed with. It was never overwhelming to me.

Fair enough on the selfish part - I read it as asking if you were being selfish, not her.

To answer this question - NO she is not being selfish for not tending to your every need.

PS - I still think you are being selfish though - LOL........

I agreed with that opinion a long time ago. The bump was regarding a complete twist on the situation, albiet a good one, about which I felt the need to inform those who care.

If you think about it, my reaction reduced the concern of my using her for sex which is why things worked out in the end. In all honesty, I'm not using her for sex, regardless of what you theorize.

You should understand that there are a lot of things at play for different women during that time of the month. On days when the flow is particularly heavy it's virtually impossible to feel sexy. I'm all about giving some love to a guy when I can't get my own for whatever reason, but if I'm not feeling it, that just makes me feel like a prostitute. Particularly in a brand new relationship, a woman will be looking for some kind of a connection in any sexual encounter.

You also have to factor in her hormones which will fluctuate during that week and affect her libido for better or worse. Also important to consider is that very few things will make a woman less interested in sex than cramps. I know you don't have a uterus, so think of someone grabbing your intestines & wringing them out like a wet towel. Still horny?

Not to mention, you're sitting there expecting yours, when she's not going to have hers. If she's willing, that makes her generous. If she's not, she's not generous, but I wouldn't tip it into selfishness either. Thinking of leaving her because you didn't even ask, and she didn't offer, puts you on the selfish side. We don't read minds any better than you do. Ask for what you want. If she looks at you like it's the most bizarre request ever, and says she would never consider it regardless of how she's feeling, THEN you can talk about looking for a more generous lover.


As usual Wndrlst, very well said!!!!!!

That's all that matters if you care about her. In some ways I find some of what you said selfish, but to be honest I often say that it is not horrible to be selfish. And as long as you really don't feel like she should service you out of obligation, then....cool.

It's funny because your original intent was to prove that your S.O. was selfish and it quickly turned on you.

Did you not read your own thread?

And welcome to the web. Posting personal information on a public forum can lead to people criticizing you. Grow some thicker skin.

I'd think it was weird if you didn't still have sex, regardless of what time of month it was. Not selfish.

Gibson - no worries if you got angry and didn't show it, and then things worked out. Happens a lot in a relationship. When that's me I'm usually thankful for the bullet I dodged.

But there's a lesson in here I think some of the previous posters are hoping you got. Your original reaction/attitude to the situation was not a healthy one. So it was a menstrual cycle that threw you off this time. What if it was an illness next time - or kids, or cancer, or just a really bad day? Once you get deeper into a relationship, many things will start getting in the way of your desires. So if you just walk away from this happy because you figured out a way around this in order to get some when you want it, I think you're in trouble when the next thing hits. Because there is a next thing out there - guarantee it.

Good luck -

You seem to think that I care that it was "turned on me," or that I'm upset about the opinions given to me. That's not the case at all. You will clearly see that I happily accepted peoples opinions once I thought about it and agreed with the possibility that I am the one being selfish and that I am wrong about the situation. That's why I asked the question, to see if my head was in the right place.

Here is the rub...your post:

"Wow, one whole night. You are the man. You are destined for relationship greatness."

Had nothing to do with the original question, was malicious in intent and was inherently misconstrued. That's what is bothering me. And regardless of whether it was on the internet or face to face, comments such as those would have pierced my apparent thin skin.

My welcome to the internet warning would have been better applied to the "tough guys" and "know-it-alls" I will run into.
