LOL..thank you...I will. It's just soooooooo embarrasing. That is one of the reasons many of us ibsers don't have much of a social life.

Hey,
I don't have that problem because most of my gas is trapped....I wish I could <<<<let it blow>>>> because I know I would feel much better.
Anyway, my hubby doesn't have IBS but he eats lots of beans & veggies so...of course....he farts a lot. We have been married 37 yrs and we have lots of fun with it... Of course this is in the privacy of our own home... Sometimes they sound like a tune and we have names for different sounding ones....it's so funny  When you have been married for a long time you find crazy things to laugh about.
I have started back to work part time after being off for a year. Anyway, the place I work has one bathroom for men & women and it's in sorta close proximity to the offices. I am afraid that if I have to "D" I will stink up the whole office. Gee Whiz, I hope that doesn't happen for the sake of everyone in the office....he he
BTW, you might try taking a Phazyme before you go on a date and stay away from gas producing foods.

At least you know that this is going to be your embarassing date story, and that it wasn't worse! What if you had to explain to him when he was about to lean in for a kiss that you had a massive exlosive diarehea attack coming on. Or even worse, wound up at his place and smelled up his bathroom?
A boy once told me that you can tell that a girl is really comfortable around a guy and cares for him if she farts in his presence. I fart in front of my boyfriend. The first time I ever did was last winter when we were trapped in my closet apartment and I hade BAD gas. And oh boy do I mean bad. They were the worst I had ever smelled, completely putrid! he could tell that I was so embarrassed that he let it go. Now we laugh about that kind of stuff. he told me that I was the first girlfriend that he farted infront of. I told my coworkers this and they said that we must be a match made in heaven and will wind up married.
To sum things up- if someone can't go with the flow- then they are worthless and no good to be around anyway.
Someday you will find a guy that loves you, farts and all.

Good guys (and girls too I hope) will laugh with you and not at you.
btw, if you don't mind me asking how old are you and the guys you are dating?

i have a ridiculous affinity for potty humor. i think i'm actually a third-grade boy in disguise!
sad, but a well-told and well-timed crude joke is the way to my heart (as long as it's not in a totally inappropriate situation!).

Well my boyfriend says that if I would just sign up for the army the country could just stop its Nuclear-Chemical-Biological Weapons programme there and then. They could just stand me with my back to the enemy... well you get the picture. Anyway fart to your heart's content, it's good to relieve some of that pressure

My husband says he has to laugh to keep from crying most of the time. We have been together 22 years and he is used to it by now. We do laugh about it and now if my kids here us laughing after we have gone to bed they will say the next day we heard you laughing at Mom having gas. I guess I have a reputation around my house.

My husband and I laugh over the same things too! He's not a big guy and I have no idea how he gets all that air in, but it sure is funny when it comes out! His are different pitches ranging from a trumpet sound to whistle and different tones sometimes sounding angry or cute.
I also understand what you mean about the loo at work. Although ours is not co-ed, it is in close proximity of everyone else and to make matters worse there is a vent in the door! Luckily, everyone knows about my having IBS and there is plenty of Lysol!
Hope you have a great day!

Talking about trapped gas, that's what I get. I have started doing the stretch that heather recommends and it makes me belch like you wouldn't believe. Then my tummy feels so much better. It happened yesterday. I was in the car for over 4 hours on and off and my guts just did a number on me. I had to go to a concert last night. My tummy was huge and I felt awful. So I lay on the floor on my side, bent knees and take one arm and lift it up then try to get it to the floor, so now you are lying almost flat but with your knees bent to one side. It takes time for that arm to get to the floor and all the time I belch and belch. This stretch by the way I also did when i had a frozen shoulder (my physio man got me to do it). Anyway, try it it will help, I am sure. Neeta
