Fed up with husbands constant farting..also while we’re eating

Guys my husband is amazing in about a million ways .. we’ve been together 8 years.. have 1 daughter.. are in love.. but here’s the thing.. he blatantly farts all the time.. like every hour sometimes more.. and loud and stinky and he’s very proud of them.. he is constantly doing it in front of me even when I say hey do you mind going in the other room or bathroom to do that.. one or 2 farts a day IS funny in my book,. But constantly doing it so blatantly in front of me especially after I’ve kindly asked not to every hour is totally disrespectful... he makes zero effort to conceal it,. His dad is like this too.. farting during thanksgiving, holidays,. Burping at the table.. no shame...Here’s the biggest kicker though.. my husband does it in close vicinity while I’m eating WHICH bothers me the most.,. THIS is the line for me.. ...yes, he does have IBS.. no he won’t get checked out by a doctor despite me begging him... he thinks it’s SO funny.. and like I said despite th health issues can’t just be considerate enough to step away when he does it,, he will ask me to pull his finger, squeeze him, fart on me sometimes,.well today.. he drank beer and farted all day around and they STUNK up our house... I was like can you please not,. He wouldn’t listen,, the last straw was when I was finally having this 5 minute moment to sit down and quickly EAT my dinner.. with our daughter etc I find those moments few and far between.. I kid you not, less than 5 feet away from me while trying to eat..He lets out a huge fart that quickly began to smell.. just 30 minutes before this he had let one rip also.. and I said look I’ve had it with the farting today please stop.. I got really mad and blew up on him.. he’s now sleeping in the other room,.. am I crazy to think this is not okay??? Like seriosuly one or 2 a day gets a giggle from me but not this constant stuff.. despite how many times a tell him how I feel he just disregards my feelings... what do I do???this has been going on for YEARS.. I’ve expressed me feeling, had serious talk, ... Like do I need to get us into counseling over this crap? No pun intended ...

I’d tell him it’s a huge turn off and turn him down until he stops

If that’s not happening too often anyway and won’t bother him, then let him continue sleep in the other room or you go to it if he won’t

And leave the room if he farts always

And what an ass

He might have some underlying health problems. I know that’s not a voluntary thing to do, his gut is not healthy if he’s that gassy. Ask him to see a doctor and yes, he might need some counseling if he thinks that sort of behavior is funny. After a point, it’s no more disrespect, it’s bullying. I’m sure he wouldn’t like being called a bully.

@SW-User Yee.It sounds like hes perfectly fine with whatever he does.Shes not.Clearly one person cares.The other doesnt.They need to work on something 🤷‍♀️

Yeah in my honest opinion I would not tolerate it and if he disregards your feelings and pleas than counseling may be in order.

I've known men like this especially when younger and usually reach over and smack them when they do it and then try to act like it's cute. "One or two farts" may be excusable but I don't find it funny. He's a grown man and should act like one, a respectable one.

He may also want to check his diet. Something is wrong there.

You aren’t crazy, I would find it very bothersome if he didn’t respect my serious talks.
He's doing it on purpose to annoy you intentionally fyi, he thinks its funny that you're getting so mad about it.. maybe if you ignore him and or act like you don't notice then he'll quit.. also, what are you feeding him? Cause some types of foods make people more gassy

@SStarfish this is a good point.. he drinks a ton of beer and processed foods,, thanks for the reply.. I think you’re right
Bluebirdsonmyshoulder · 46-50, F
@Brassm0nk3y What? That is your husband, not a child. You ignore children's behavior until they fix it and you feed them the right foods, a grown ass man should be able to deal with this. Sheesh

He can't help it.It seems like hes accepted that but you haven't.
Worst case you could always be a little more separate as much as possible.Seperate living quarters?I dunno.
UglyTrait91 · 26-30, F
Yeah that's not okay at all. Maybe he's not used to people taking him serious if he's been with women before you, or he's going thru a moment where he doesn't take himself enough

Ew gross I would live in a separate room, and eat separately

Sounds like a man's man, does he play turtle with you too?
Just give him another 40 years - have fun !
