Co-sleeping

I remember clearly the first time a man farted on me -- and I'm not talking about my brother.

You roll over in the night, you want to be the big spoon, so you cup your body to his, put your arm around his waist, then let it rest on his delightful chest. You nuzzle your nose between his shoulder blades, and you both settle in to the comfort of a warm body. Then: Pffft. Against your thigh.

Here's the question: Is it rude to roll over? Do you just pretend it didn't happen?

Pretend it didn't happen and hope he does the same when you fart on him.

absolutely pretend it didn't happen; and definitely roll over. if he farts on you every time you hug him from behind he needs either a lower GI check or a swift kick in the ass (also effective).

Def ignore. One time I was the big spoon and he let out a big one and it scared me so much I jumped and he rolled over to comfort me and check that I was ok. I don't think he realized that I jumped because of his fart.

Ignore it?! Hello NO ... you laugh your ass off because you know damn well when you fart so loud in your sleep that he jumps, you can be damn sure he's laughing his ass off at you and will in turn tell everyone you know!

If he didn't pull the covers over your head, then it was an accident. Laugh about it and enjoy the cuddling. Like a good burp, it's a mans way of saying, "Hey, I really want to share this with you!" Life is no fun without a good fart joke every now and then and payback is a bitch.
