Hey
I started seeing this new girl. We have been on several dates and they've always been good and fun. Last Tuesday we went out and it was great but she has been kinda distant with me since. I'm not delusional we made out at the end and everything so I know it went well. She had mentioned that she was getting her period soon so maybe that's what I'm thinking she's been distant all of a sudden. Up until this week we've been texting non-stop and whatever.
So I guess my question is do girls on there periods, not saying all girls, act in this kinda off way?
Also we did go out for food yday and it was fun but she said she wasn't feeling great so I'm probably just answering my own question here.

Welcome to the world of men and women. Gone are the days of boys and girls. Once a girl gets her first period she literally and figuratively is a women who for the next 40 or 50 years could suffer from period problems.

PMS is real and it affects each woman differently. Younger women suffer more with PMS than older women because of all the new hormones associated with puberty which starts their period. Boys also suffer with the new hormones puberty brings to them. Since there is no physical reason for this problem in boys parents usually refer to it as a phase or teenage problems.

Another problem for girls is the younger they are the more embarrassed they can be by their period even if they suffer no problems with it. Given how sexually aware today's teenagers are I find this strange as puberty is normal as is the changes it brings on to both boys and girls. If you have had Health and Sex Ed in school there should be no reason for this embarrassment.

My advice is to just hang in there as she deals with this. She will come back to you after she is feeling better and not having to deal with cramps, heavy flows, feeling slightly out of sync and other feelings she may have associated with her period.

If you have any long term feelings for her. when she is feeling better you might want to tell her that and that you would just want to be there for her when she is dealing with this and you will understand if she is not herself during this time. She might appreciate having you to lean on during this time. Just holding and cuddling her can be a great comfort for her.
