Anyone else have a love-hate relationship with their period?
Does anyone else have a massive love-hate relationship with their period? Because I’m currently lying here with a heating pad and I’m so conflicted.
**The "Love" part (barely):**
It’s the best excuse ever. If my parents are annoying me or trying to get me to do stuff while I’m napping, I just mention I'm on my period and they immediately leave me alone. Zero questions asked. I feel zero guilt eating twice as many snacks and chocolate. My body is literally going through it, so I deserve the treats. Honestly, the best part is just the confirmation that the system is working and I’m definitely NOT pregnant. That relief is a whole vibe.
**The "Hate" part (the reality):**
I am so over the constant cleanup. I’ve ruined way too many of my favorite cute underwear and it feels like a crime scene half the time. Cramps are actual trash. Why does it have to feel like my stomach is being twisted in a knot? If I could just hit a button and never have a period again but still be healthy, I’d do it in a heartbeat.
