It Happened One Night

im just going to keep recycling the same pictures of stephen and I..



Guys....

something happened last night.

It all started off so innocently..

Stephen and I had just finished watching the documentary "Paradise Lost: Purgatory"
(okay so maybe that's not the definition of innocent..)
But I digress..

Stephen was at his computer, while I blogged away from my laptop in bed, which also happens to be my office.
jealous?

When a puff of air escaped from below...
It was supposed to be quiet..
but my body tricked me..
and it made a noise..

I froze.

Stephen froze.

It was the first time since we start dating almost a year ago,
that this had happened.

Then Stephen started hysterically laughing, naturally.
Because the idea of girls pooping and farting is, of course, the funniest thing in the whole world.
And up until this point i had convinced him i dont do either..
i'm a lady.

And then I did what I always do when i get really embarrassed.
I cry and laugh at the same time.
Not the most normal emotional reaction,
but a reaction nontheless.

So,
I think our relationship is probably over.


Sharing this story on my public blog is less embarrassing.
Clearly.

  2. I live with two boys - my hubby is 26 and our foster son is 12 - bodily functions are hilarious! Inside the house they are openly discussed lol.

    It's even more funny when we have burping competitions like in Shrek - before I lived with two boys it wasn't discussed unless it was a really bad stinky one lol. It's a natural process (or so I'm told lol)

    Better out than in lol.

  3. Bad ideas come from farts that you don't let out and turn your brain to crap. Just sayin'.

  4. Haha, I love how you share stories like this with us! It's one of the reasons I love your blog :)

  7. ya know, i've been with kyle almost 4 years...we live together even...and have never had an "incident" in front of him. i'm sure i'm doing something to my insides by practicing such restraint, but it's totally worth it to be the perfect version of a female in his eyes.

    CucpakesOMG!

  8. I Just Died. I am the same way!!! I probably would have cried or laughed... I tend to blame it on the dog... ;)

  9. The first time I did this in front of Jeff, I pretended that it was really my ankle popping and "hobbled" out of the room to investigate further. I then stayed away for an hour while I waited for my face to become a lighter shade of red.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Oh geez. That was funny! I think it is SO MUCH FUNNIER, and more fun, to laugh and joke about bodily functions with them. I'm not even embarrassed at all anymore. Its kind of like one of our hallmark things we talk about ... pooping and tooting and everything. WHAT.

    But, the first time, I was a teensy bit traumatized. :D

    ReplyDelete
  11. it either means it's over, or he'll propose sometime this month. because, you know, it takes the relationship to the next level. at least, that's how it was for us.

    ReplyDelete
  12. you crack me up. Almost a year in!? You did good girl. Then again, I have Crohn's disease so pooping/farting kind of comes with the territory...my poor boyfriend.

    I do remember one time when I JUST started dating him, I was over at his apartment and my stomach thought it would be fun to attack me...ran upstairs to go to the bathroom and just as I walked out, his roommate walked into the bathroom and goes "WHO LIT UP THE BATHROOM!?" Ugh, so embarrassing. I blamed their neighbor, for the record, and Mike actually believed me until I confessed almost two years later...lol

    ReplyDelete
  13. BAHAHA oh my goodness I fart all the time now next to Mr. Charming. I'll be like, "I have to fart." and he'll be all, "Then do it already." haha at least I give a warning, he just does it whenever he pleases. ha

    ReplyDelete
  14. Wait, can I just tell you I've been living with James for 2 years and have never once been able to go the bathroom while he's home!?!? I seriously am going to need therapy. And if I ever do accidentally fart infront of him (my worst fear ever because one time I sneeze-farted infront of my ex... you know when you sneeze and accidentally fart at the same time) I'll die. DIE. I hope you're not dead.

    ReplyDelete
  15. hahahaha. It's ok, you're only human. Though believe me, I'd probably have the same reaction...and I've been in a relationship for almost 4 years. We're ladies!!!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Haha, hilarious!! Now you really should get a dog- they're convenient to blame :)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Oh gosh, girl. I let one out when my husband and I had been dating for only a month.

    My husband stuck around for 6+ years now. Haha. I don't know why...b/c yuck...ladies do not fart (or poo or sweat for that matter).

    He must love me.

    Cheers.

  18. this is too why i love your blog!! made my already bad day great :)

    ReplyDelete
  19. hilarious! this post seriously just made my day. I've been dating carl for 6 years and we don't fart in front of each other....He says that I sometimes do it in my sleep and thats super embarrassing.
    My new favorite blog :)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hahaha and so it begins. Don't worry, once you get married you'll start leaving the door open when you pee or poop. And then it will be him embarrassed and will always close the door no matter what. Or that could just be my case. Lol

    Have you seen the Kristen Bell's sloth video on Ellen? You need to see it. It's hilarious. And she cries in there which reminded me of you crying.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'm reading this in class, trying my damnedest not to burst out laughing.

    That is hilarious!

    And I can honestly say, I've been with Nick for four years and I've NEVER done that in front of him.. He doesn't believe me when I say that I very rarely do it anyway.. because seriously, it always comes up the other way. I burp. Like it's my job. But I think Nick would rather me burp than fart..

    Best post ever.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Wow! I was impressed with you making it a whole YEAR until I read some comments and saw 5 YEARS and such??! I don't even do it in front of my parents (who at one point wiped my dirty butt) if I can help it, but I never made it a year. My body is sneakier than yours I guess...

    ReplyDelete
  23. LOL! the first time is always horrifying. I can tell you that years and years and years later it will still be a tiny bit embarrassing but mostly you will laugh it off.

    Anyways, congrat's to making it to one year. Impressive :)

    xoxo
    Noa

  24. That is hilarious! I too let one out recently and my BF laughed too. I was thankful he didn't seem too grossed out! LOL.

  25. This happened to me like eighteen months but I was in the bathroom and he was somewhere else and I prayed he hadn't heard but he had--then he laughed at me for ages and I went in a strop. I take being laughed at so well :)

    ReplyDelete
  26. After this happened to my friend, and her BF called her "Tooter", I'm now terrified of it.

    So what happens now...is it a big free-for-all?

    ReplyDelete
  27. haha oh no!!
    That has happened to me before. ):
    it was sad and I cried too..

    ReplyDelete
  28. Oh no!!!!! Thanks for sharing it, though. After eight years this has yet to happen, crossing my fingers!

    ReplyDelete
  29. a milestone each couple has to face! I managed to hold off till we were married till it happened...but alas, it WILL happen.

    And hey, we're human!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Hahahaha I had my boyfriend convinced it was an animal at this quarry where we were walking. He got worried at what kind of animal it could've been and I died laughing and finally told him.

    These are the memories!

    ReplyDelete
  31. haha oh goodness! loved this!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Haha! AND I love the fact that it truly is less embarrassing to share something like that on a blog than it is to have it happen in the first place. So funny.

    ReplyDelete
  33. i love you!

  36. hahaha Best Blog Post! Oh goodness, this made me laugh! :)

  37. I totally remember the first time I "accidentally" did it in front of Luke... I too was laughing and crying at the same time from embarrassment. :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. hahaha, you made it a whole year? Good for you! I think I made it a few months in, we were drifting off to sleep when a sound happened, I jerked awake, so did he, he asked if I just..you know and I just kept saying, 'no! no, I didn't do anything'. I was so embarrassed.

    What made another time embarrassing was we were walking on the beach, he bent to pick something up behind me RIGHT when I was 'in the process'....bad timing...real bad timing...

  39. Hahahah i'm dying for you! That's absolutely hilarious. I'm going on 7 years now and haven't had an incident yet! Fingers crossed I can keep convincing him that ladies don't fart for a few more years :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. LOL oh megan i just love you!! you guys are seriously adorable. Well at least now you know you dont have to hold back ;-) hahah

    oh and is it completely bad of me that I thought you were going to say you guys were engaged by teh start of this post?

    xoxox

    ReplyDelete
  41. Oh my goodness, I laughed so hard! Mostly because of my dreading of that day to come for me... three years with Sean and that day hasn't come yet. I'm seriously dreading the inevitable lmao.

    ReplyDelete
  42. You know, at least Stephen doesn't call you "Stinky bum" when that happens. Because I bet you can't guess what happens in my house...

    ReplyDelete
  43. OMG. Haha, the first time is so mortifying isn't it? I was the same way, and now, well, I don't care. I'm sick...I know. I use it as a torture mechanism to get things I want. muwahaha.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Hahahaha, just taking the relationship one step further. I still don't let it out in front of the hubs...and it's been nearly three years. I like pretending to be super perfect. Ha.

    And I just passed one right now, in honor of you. I'm home alone, of course.

  45. Hahaha! Oh gosh, I love it. And I'm pretty impressed that you've been dating that long AND living together and you're just now, um, sharing such things.
    And I had no clue that part three of that series was out! I'm from the Memphis area and when the men were released this past summer I became a bit too obsessed with the case and watched the first two parts. So crazy. I will definitely be watching that third one!

    ReplyDelete
  46. BAHAHAHAHAHA this is GREAT. I love it. Welcome to the club! ;) HAHAHAHAHA!

    It's like a pringles chip...once you start, you don't stop!

    Hahaha kidding.

    Actually, wait, no I'm not.

    Love you so much. For realz.

    ReplyDelete
  47. First, you two are such a lovely looking couple!

    As for the farting, i think you should be proud that you got as far as a year without it happening! Sometimes it just happens.

    I've been known to have strange reactions to things too, laughing and crying at the same time sounds familiar... :)

    ReplyDelete
  48. hahahaha thats great! The first time that happened to me my boyfriend was sleeping and let one escape but the best part is it woke him up! He was so embarrassed and tried to play it off like nothing happened (we were 16)...a few years later I told the story and he was like "SHIT! I knew it!".

    ReplyDelete
  49. Oh Megan, your blog never fails to make me smile - good job on holding out for a whole year! I'm totally impressed ;)

  50. I loved this post, but even more I love all of the comments and amens that followed.

    This is why I have a dog. He's the fall guy in these situations. x

  51. hahaha i knew exactly where this post was going when i read the line "while i blogged away from my laptop in bed". I've been with my man for almost 3 years - living together for 1.5 - and i have yet to make a slip. i somehow imagine it happening like it did for you though. ohhh the joys of being "a lady" in front of your man.

  52. wait till you get married! You pee with the door open! lol it's not so bad, they think u are human and think it's funny. You should look up the video breaking the barrier on youtube, SO funny you will love it! it's about farting in front of your bf for the first time

    ReplyDelete
  53. i'm just glad i was the first person you came to with this information.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I managed to get through my entire relationship without the inevitable passing (because Jared refuses to believe girls are capable of that)... But he did walk in on my going to the bathroom once. There's a whole 'nother level of intimacy I don't recommend.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I'm dying! Seriously DYING with laughter right now! My husband likes to sing this peepeepoopoo time song every time I head to the bathroom- am (ahem) irregular 90% of the time so when it happens it's kind of a big deal in my house- and it's mortifying every time I head to the restroom and the hubs sings his little tune.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I remember the day when it happened to me. Oy. The bright side is: guys will always think that farting is funny. And that you're cool because of that. And that's cute when you get embarrassed.

    Boys.

    ReplyDelete
  57. You Miss Megan... are one of my favorite blogs finds... for this very post. Cheers to being REAL!

    ReplyDelete
  58. Omg the first time that happened to me I was sooo embarrassed but I was laughing so hard it kept happening several times after. Good thing we were already engaged because I'm pretty sure he would have left my ass if we had just started dating lol good story!

    ReplyDelete
  59. You are freaking hilarious. It still surprises me that you hadn't ever done it before, just because you seem so open. But doesn't it feel so much better now that the ice is broken? So, the big question now is... are you going to continue farting in front of him or was that a one time thing?

    ReplyDelete
  60. Wow, I'm super impressed that you were able to not fart in front of him for that long...that's impressive...or maybe my digestive system is just messed up haha...because I'm pretty sure I let one slip way sooner in front of my guy...and now we're married, so it all worked out in the end :)

    ReplyDelete
  61. you know what they say...

    first comes the fart.

    then comes the baby.

    ReplyDelete
  62. bahahah!!! I love you!
    I have convinced Tiel that I don't do either of those.. poop or fart.
    Sure has gotten tricky since we live together now. :) I mean I fart in front of him all the time. He just doesn't know it... yet.

    Great post!

    ReplyDelete
  63. Hahahah...this post cracked me up. This sounds like the exact same thing that happened to me the first time. Lots of laughs and a red embarrased face. Haha.

    P.S. I have a giveaway going on right now. I hope you enter! They will ship international! :)

    Yes, congrats...FINALLY! :)

  67. Okay, I'll admit, I remember when my husband (then bf) first accidentally farted in front of me, and he was embarrassed because he didn't know how I would react. Well, instead of acting weird and making him feel worse, I decided to rip one of my own! We were both laughing so hard and ever since then, farts have been a big (almost TOO big) part of our relationship. We've been married for over 5 years and together for almost 8! I guess it just depends on what your sense of humor is, but we laugh about poop/farts all the time. Thank God, because I ended up getting diagnosed with Crohn's disease right after we got married, and believe me, there's a lot of bodily functions involved and you just gotta laugh most of the time! ;-)

    P.S. I can't believe you lasted a YEAR!!! And someone above has said FIVE YEARS?!?!?! I don't believe it.

  68. @Anon- I do not think you NEEDED to use this space, rather you wanted to use another space on my blog to show your side to my readers. However this is not a space for debating issues. I trust that my readers will educate and inform themselves further if necessary, just as I have done in reading those articles. I agree people need to remain informed, and there are many sides to a story, especially when a charity reaches such a global scale. There are plenty of other sites (like the ones you listed) where my readers can go and view that side..my personal site, however, is not one. If you would like to contact me privately to further discuss the issue, not under the mask of anonymous, i would be more then happy to chat :)

    ReplyDelete
  69. hahahahahha I can't even tell you how many times I've done this in front of my bf. The ones that make noise are the funny ones, but wait till it's silent but deadly. My bf had to leave the room other night. & honestly I could NOT stop laughing hysterically. We have been together for almost 2 years now though so we just laugh at the silly stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Hahahaha this is too funny!!! :D Ahh that creeping feeling of shame when it happens!! Haha! The first time it happened with Luke I think my face was tomato red for at least 24 hours!!

    ReplyDelete
  71. you wanna know something worse...my MOM farted in front of my then boyfriend/now husband before i did. and, with absolutely no shame.

    seriously, mom!!!

    ReplyDelete
  72. this might be a little tmi but... not long after the hubs and i started dating we were on a trip and things got a little hot and heavy one night. he was down there doing what people do down there....and I farted. right in his face. it was the first incident as well. I coulda died right on the spot. He of course found it the most hilarious thing ever. sigh.

    ReplyDelete
  73. OH, this post is glorious! I don't hear enough about farts. I am shocked you could hold off for an entire YEAR! I think I lasted... maybe 4 months.

    ReplyDelete
  74. I LOVE stories like this. Farting during sex is definitely the best. Just wait, it will happen.

    ReplyDelete
  75. I have been married 26 years and have to post this anon, although I am a follower. I still get embarrased when it slips. One night we were in bed, and I had cramps. I thought a little one was sneaking it, but it came out like a long and suffering wail. I started to laugh quietly and laughed so hard into my arm, the bed was shaking and my eyes crying. My husband sat bolt upright and said "honey, it Ok, you had a bad dream and sort of screamed" I was laughing so hard he thought I was bawling and kept trying to console me. But my cover was kept...still don;t do it openly.

    ReplyDelete
  76. hahahahhahahahaha! Oh my, this just made my day! Hilarious!!! Oh my.

  77. Bahaha how did i miss this!!!??

    I finally did infront of cammy after five years together. Cats outta the bag! Haha

  78. Ha ha hilarious. I think when you finally do this, this is when the true fun in a relationship begins, ha ha.

    ReplyDelete
  79. oh. my. goodness. haha. I literally laughed out loud reading this! You're in deep with this relationship now that that happened! :) Cute blog!

    ReplyDelete
  80. I just found your blog and this is a hilarious first post for me to read!

    Don't worry- the first time I 'broke wind' in my front of my now husband (he kept me around!) was the day after he proposed. No lie.

    And I thought mine was stealth too. Until he pointed out that the rock I was sitting on either growled at me and I needed to run for my life, or I tooted and needed to fess up. :)

    ReplyDelete
  81. One time my boyfriend farted as he orgasmed.
    Tell me how that's even possible.
    Also I laughed and cried and still think about it sometimes and laugh.
    We'd only been dating a couple of months at the time.

    ReplyDelete
  82. seriously, reading these comments have made my life.

    @both anons: LOL. omg. commend you both for sharing, even under anonymous. HILARIOUS.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Haha! This is hilarious! I read the anon comments and those made me laugh so hard!!! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one trying to let them out silently.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Hahaha this is brilliant!! I think it took us 2 years before we farted in front of one another... mine occured from laughing & out it slipped.. :( I hoped she didn't hear it but yups she suuuure did! Now we;re no longer in 'discomfort' with one another.
