Me: "I know how you feel"
Brain: well you're a guy, dude, so thats a bare faced lie...

Me: "My deepest sympathy at this delicate and emotional time"
Brain: I'm pretty sure if you said that to a girl on her period she'd think you were taking the mick and punch you in the face...

Me: "Get well soon"
Brain: she's not fucking ill you moron!

Me: "Would you like me to do anything for you babe?"
Brain: yes, she'd like you to leave her the fuck alone...

Honestly, what do you say to a girl on her period without sounding like a prick?

    You can try telling a joke or something, but pms jokes are not funny. Period.

    Say nothing. Like you said, she is not ill. She doesn't need your sympathy, or support to go through her period. She's used to it.

    If she explicitly says "I'm on my period"
    You can say "Ok, fine", or if she has a sense of humor make a sarcastic compliment. Something like "Well done!" XD

    If she is very bitchy on her period, either ignore her, or fight fire with fire XD

    I did have an ex that was really pissy when she was on her period and she'd actually act like a total bitch. Slamming doors, yelling, throwing stuff. I don't take too kindly to such behavior in my home...

    When that time of the month came, I would clap and cheer, raise her hand in the air like she's a champion and scream like it's the last 15 minutes of the FIFA world cup.

    She'd get extra angry, but that's what you get for acting antisocially just because something your body is doing a thing it was designed to do.

    In most circumstances just “Oh, ok” would suffice. If it doesn’t go for the “My deepest sympathies...” option.

    Why do your friends tell you every time they get their periods anyway, do you keep a chart?

    Well, generally that's something many don't talk about. As a guy, that's prolly more than you should know about a female, unless you are saying her or live with her. Be smart, just don't let that be a topic of conversation. It's not like she has cancer. It's not something you are sorry to hear they have been stricken with. It's not a disease. Just give them chocolate and it ice cream handstand back.

      Why? For only thinking these things not saying them, and trying to seek genuine advice on this so I can try and cope better with the shit girls say and do when their time of month comes around?

      Would you prefer me not to seek advice or question my thought patterns and just come out with some random off-the-wall shit?

      Why am I an idiot for asking a question?

        For thinking that women on their period are some special creature that needs to be treated differently.

        Why would you even know? Are you going through their dirty laundry or rubbish or something?

        She calls everyone an idiot or imbecile. Do girls you know on their period talk about it all the time? Im not really up on my female friends menstural cycles.

    Your playwrighting style of presenting the people having conversations inside you head is great. I hope your future posts introduce us to more of your mental conversations.

    Something like, do u want me to get u something? Like for the cramps and stuff? But say it casually
    Those warming bottles you can put on your belly for example.
    And one might not only be in a bad mood because of the cramps, but because of the iron deficiency
    If you’ve shown your helpful shoulder and she really doesn’t want it, I guess you really just go away
    But I don’t know bout the other females, I joke around about it with my friends or don’t talk about it at all sooooo that’s my best guess
