    I've had a very difficult/sad week at work, so along with talking about an embarrassing issue I'm having, I figured this is the best forum to discuss something that'll probably also bring some humorous responses.  What better way to talk something through AND get a good laugh, right?  

    I've never farted in front of my FI.  Okay, that's a lie... I accidentally did once when we were in a bookstore of all places!!!  The quietest place ever.  I wanted to die.  Since then I refuse to fart in front of him.  We live together, but I'm too embarrassed to do it and just can't bring myself to (even though he encourages it!)  Fortunately, he was the first one in the relationship to fart, so at least we were together awhile before my "accident."  What about you bees? Who was first?  Were you embarrassed when you did?  I need to hear some good stories!

    Uh ya....my SO was definitely first. Its not possible to count how many times he farts. It doesn't phase me though--my dad and brother are the same way.  I have squeaked one on accident lol but I just laugh. I am the burper though!! and a damn good one Tongue Out

    sigh. I was first. And yes, I wanted to die.

    We had been together about 6 months and neither one of us had farted in front of the other yet. We had a bet going as to who would be first. I was determined to not let it be me.

    Well, one morning he was lying on top of me and tickling me and his hips were pushing on my stomach and it just came out. Loud! He tortured me about it for a week. Then a few weeks later, he was really, really sick and he stood up to go to the bathroom and I made him laugh...since he was sick he couldn't hold it in, and while he was laughing, left a huge fart! Finally we were even!

    I have to say a lot of tension left our relationship after we got past the 'first fart' stage.

    DH farts maybe once a year, seriously, his stomach is so bad that he rarely gets gas.  When he does, I die laughing.  You would think he just bought me the biggest diamond in the world I get so excited over it.  So that means I was, eh, I can't help it.  It is what it is.

    He definitely farted first.  He sat on my lap and let one rip.  I guess he thought that would be a good way to break the ice so to speak??  Who knows.  I never fart in front of him, but I did by accident once when we were having sex.  Most mortifying moment of my life!!! Embarassed

    i'm gassy when nervous and on our second date we were pulled over by the police (speeding so i'm not even sure why i was nervous) So i was the first. (I'm sure he was sneaking them in on the first date, but we were in a crowded place I wouldn't have caught it.

    So there I am slappin em out like the classy bride I'd one day be :)

    He farted first. 6.5 years later and I still tell him I never fart. I have when he is around by accident and he is nice enough to never say anything because he knows I would die. It doesn't bother me when he does because my brother and cousins are the types to let them fly, and announce it so while I do not enjoy farts I am used to them.

    Burping I do pretty regularly, and loud. I'm such a class act.

    nieither of us do it in front of each other on purpose! haha - it wouldn't bother me coming from him though - i grew up with 2 brothers and a father who were not shy about that sort of thing AT ALL but i've always been the kind of person that hides its - my mother was the same way, i swear she never used the bathroom.

    It was probably him.  But we fart all the time, and find it really funny.  The other day in bed he did a really smelly one and then let it bellow in my face - not impressed!  But we laughed about it.

    @MissBoPeep:   I farted in his face when he was down on me once (TMI I know).  I was soooo ashamed. But it was funny, he'll never let me forget about it though!

    He farts....ALOT! And its always funny. But he definitely told me from day one not to fart or talk about poop to him LMAO. He said its disgusting to think of a lady doing it.  So i never have honestly. Which has been fine. 2 year living together and no issue.

    My FI was definetly the first. After almost a year he told me he would never marry me if I didn't fart in front of him. I think it was more feeling comfortable enough to do it around him. Eventually I did and I was so embarrased! He started jumping up and down high fiving me!!! LOL After almost 5 years.... anything is free game!

    Hahaha I love this thread!  FI and I are 11 months from being married and netiher of us has noticibly farted in front of the other.  That is not to say that it hasn't happened, but we have four dogs (two of which are boston terriers which are infamous for their gas) so the finger is pointed at them an awful lot.  My mom thinks that it is HILARIOUS that we try to stay so modest about it!

    He farted first.  But now pretty much anything goes as it's been 8 years.   So we both fart around each other.  And yes, sometimes it's still hilarious.  Like when he literally let off a gas bomb in our tent and I felt like I couldn't breathe until I burst from the tent gasping for breath.  Good times.

    It was FI, and instead of passing it off like nothing happened, he started giggling like a little kid. And he still giggles, every time he lets one loose.

    If I accidentally let one slip (which is rare), he often still giggles and will usually congratulate me on it.

    Actually, my dog farted first... and it was a LOUD STINKY fart!!!  It kind of broke the ice enough that we both can fart in front of each other, and now it's no big deal.  Someone is always farting, whether it's one of us or one of our 3 incredibly gassy dogs!

    he was first. In the damn car. With no warning. We were on our 4th date and driving home from the movies. I remember it smelling like death all of a sudden and looking over at him. I didnt even h ave to ask. I just started yelling "ewwwwww!" and fanning my nose and opening the window. We laughed it off and he has always freely let em rip since that day. I dont do it if i dont have to. Sometimes it hurts though to keep em in lol in that case ill let it go as quietly and lightly as possible. I did fart once during sex.....worst moment ever. In general though i dont get too embarrassed. it happens ya know? :)

    @DaneLady: LOL!! We do the opposite of the usual "blame the dog" game... we have 2 dogs, and whenever one of them farts we start pointing fingers at each other!  I think my FI so desperately wants to catch me letting one rip that he's willing to blame the dog's farts on me!

    DEFINITELY him. He's never had any shame about farting in front of me.

    I've never once farted in front of him in the 6.5 years we have been together (sleep toots don't count...it's not fair if I'm not awake to hold it in). I'm super modest about that and I just refuse to let one go lol.

    On another note, neither of us has ever used the bathroom in front of one another. I know some couples are cool with that, but I'm totally fine with never crossing that barrier.

    @MrsCarnival: My SO has recently decided it's ok to use the bathroom when I'm in the shower.  Not sure how I feel about this, but I don't think I will ever get to a point where I'm ok with ahem.. doing my business in front of him! On one hand I guess it says a lot about how comfortable he is with me, but on the other hand, eww!

    He definitely farted first, second, and forever!  I don't make audible ones in front of him as he's convinced that girls don't fart or poop.  He comes from a non-farting family and I come from a farty one, so it was an adjustment at first to say the least!

    FI has gotten much more polite about his farts (he generally believes that I should rejoice in their wonderment) so at least he no longer farts in bed.  In the morning, he gets up, holds it in until he gets to our bedroom door, and then lets it rip somewhere between the door and the washroom.  I cannot tell you how many times I have been awakened by his incredibly loud, sound-barrier-breaking farts!

    Honestly, it was me first and it was during sex. I wanted to crawl under a rock and DIE. Since then, we have progressed to having no shame whatsoever. We've been together for 6 years, have 3 children, and can have a conversationi without even pausing when a toot escapes. It's pretty awesome.

    ETA: It was one of those quiet little "whoosh" ones and I know he knew, but didn't say anything. I said it was a queaf, but told him a few years later that it wasn't really. lol I realized then that he was a keeper. :)

    @MissBoPeep: FI knows how I feel about that, because I lock the door when I take a shower! If he wants to come in, he has to knock and state his purpose lol. If he has to see a man about a horse, there is a half bath downstairs. I will only unlock the door for non-toilet related grooming and sexytimes Laughing

    He was 1st. For a long time. I maintain that girls are pretty and wonderful and wouldn't do anything terrible like make a doodie or fart. ;) My 1st time in front of him was in the living room and classy me blamed the litter box in the basement. He knew I was lying. :)

    @MrsCarnival: I don't lock the door because we only have one bathroom, so if it was an emergency, an "I have to go right now you've been in the shower over an hour, and I gotta GO!!" kind of emergency, then I would be ok with him using the bathroom in front of me, but I think he just doesn't feel like waiting.  Ah well.

    My friends all think I'm crazy because we've been together for 7.5 years, lived together for over two years and I've never audibly farted in front of him! But I do have a funny story about him doing it in front of me. We were at one of our best friend's family ski cabin with our friend and his whole family and their friends. The friend has two brothers, so it was basically me plus lots of boys between the ages of 16 and 20 (this was a few years ago). We were all in the hallway taking off our coats when he said something making fun of me. I jokingly punched him in the stomach which caused him to fart really loudly! Everyone burt out laughing hysterically for at least a few minutes and he was so embarrassed (but still thought it was funny). The best/worst part? One of our friend's brothers nicknamed him, "Fartpunch McGee" for the rest of the weekend! I will never forget it (and still occasionally remind him of it).

    Definitely FI. And actually he farts so much I can't remember the first time he did it in front of me. They are always super loud and he blames it on the dog. I don't fart in front of him and he likes to tell himself that "girls don't fart" or poop.

    He was for SURE. I was always so careful about it. Now however, neither of us really have any shame.

    I even got so comfortable with it that I once farted when his best friend was over..... I was soooooooo embarrassed!!!

    He's also farted in the car. In -30 degree weather (where you don't want to roll the window down at all!) and it was the fart of DEATH. I was choking! I had no warning either, he just farted and then looked over at me sheepishly and said "I'm sorry". I was confused until it hit me.
