AITAH for telling my gf we should stay at her apartment while she is on her period?
My girlfriend and I have been dating for around a year and I got a new apartment closer to her place so we’ve been spending a lot more time together. It’s been really nice and she will often come to my place because it’s larger and stay over 2-3 days.
Only problem is that she does not seem to have a good way to manage her period. Whenever she comes over during her period she’s guaranteed to bleed onto at least one piece of furniture. I’m a guy so obviously I have no idea how terrible dealing with a period every month is but I’ve never noticed this with any girl I’ve dated before, or my sisters.
Whenever it happens I try my best to be understanding and I’ll just throw everything in the wash. She’s always really apologetic and will say she needs to get better tampons or pads. But nothing ever changes, she still consistently leaves blood stains when she is here on her period.
I was not exactly sure what to do about it and I ended up saying that while she’s on her period it’s best if we stay at her apartment. I know that may sound bad and she definitely took it badly but I’m not sure what other solution there is here. She told a couple of her friends about it and made it sound misogynistic like I was banishing her because she’s unclean or something. But really I just don’t want my furniture to keep getting ruined. I like her a lot and would love to have her back over when she’s maybe found a better way to manage her period. AITAH?
