When you start a new relationship and eventually get to know that person well enough to move in together. How long after you've reached the "comfort zone". And by that I mean when you feel comfortable to let out a fart without embarrassment.
It took me almost 3 years after my ex and I moved in together to let it rip in front of her.

Disbarring the fact that I don't believe in living together, I am 3 months in to a new relationship and not yet super comfy. We are likely to marry by the end of the year, but the things that are comfortable for us are the little things like walking around naked, seeing each other pee. Those things are ok because I am not shy or reserved in that manner. It's the bigger issues that take longer to have an open dialogue about.

I'm usually like that from the onset. It's just a by product off not really giving that much of a ....

I don't allow chicks to move in or nest at my spot, and that makes things more than comfortable for me.

ha, I was with my ex for 3 and a half years on and off and I never got comfortable enough to fart or pee in front of him. Some things should just remain a mystery. Maybe the farting thing would be comfortable after like 5 years, lol. and I would never move in with a guy before he puts a ring on it.

I think its problematic if you dont feel comfortable enough around your partner to do simple things like burping or farting..Seriously?! How can you expect to live with someone and not have these incidents occur?

My husband and I moved in together after a year of dating and basically burping/farting were of no consequence. I dont know why anyone would feel so self concious about such natural body functions - its like women who get out of bed every day at 6 am to put in makeup and do their hair so their partner wakes up and finds them looking "perfect" in bed...Come on!!! I can understand not doing those type of ugly activities on a first date or maybe after a few dates or weeks of meeting someone (because of that whole "first impressions count" mantra) - but if you're dating someone and expect to marry them or live with them at some point, you should get used to the fact that burping and farting are just facts of life!!!

haha! I see what you're saying. I don't care what I look like the morning after spending the night with a guy. I most likely look like I had hot sex anyways . the farting thing..eh...like I said, I won't be living with a guy before marriage so that'll never happen in a relationship. and my bathroom business shall remain a mystery for all of time!

Ya know...

I think you gotta let it rip immediately, don't pretend not to have gas. Just get it out of the way early on.

All organic things pass gas.

Don't be silly.

I think my wife let one out around the second or third date.

News flash, everyone passes gas. It's not a big deal.

I've never made a big deal about farting in a committed relationship.

When I was 16, my now-husband (who I dated in high school, then broke up with, then back together years later) and I were just dating. We had only kissed and made out a few times, nothing involving removal of clothing.

We were wrestling around and playing around on his living room floor, and, he squeezed me a certain way and *pppffffffffffffffffffffft* the loudest, nastiest fart you could imagine slipped out of me.

I didn't say a word, then all of a sudden he laughed said "well, I guess that means I can fart now too!"

He outdid me and proceeded to cut one.

It was gross, but, we were 16, so we found it funny. And, it "broke the ice" (or should I say, "broke the wind") and although we didn't sit around having farting contests, we at least knew that if it happened it wasn't a big deal. I was so relieved that he not only wasn't grossed out, but found it funny, that ever since then, I had the attitude with guys that if they can't handle the fact that I fart, belch, and poop, they're too uptight for me.

Its not a lack of class thing - obviously I don't do it in public or in mixed company, but if its just the two of us, well, it happens!

That never made sense to me. In fact, some of the best sex I've had was with a makeupless, tired, bleary-eyed, dark-circled face, morning breath, messed up hair, etc.

If he wants me so badly that he HAS to have me even at that time, then I know he's a keeper.
