Moodswings??!!?!! Help!

[Majikku]

Hello, my g/f is really annoying me right now and all, i know today is her period but i was wondering if its normal to have this severe moodswing.

Todays plan was to play tennis but i told her i had to eat lunch first so i said if she can come in like 1 hour, but then she suddenly got upset and said bye. A couple mins later she called me but my bro picked up. She called my house for somereason.. and not my cell. He said she was sounding very upset and if i could go to the park to meet her and all. i go to the park noo ones there, i wait and then went back home. Then went back to check and waited but no one was there. So then i kept calling her cell but she never picked up. i tried and tried and occasionally she would turn off her phone. Then my told a friend to call her, she picked up and she said i'm at the arcade and then hung up because my friend asked about why shes mad at me. so dats the end of the story... i was thinking if this is normal or she can just be mad at me... cuz i really don't know wat i've done wrong...

Sincerely Kira
TIA

I think it might be her personality too. Some girls are "attention whores". I dunno if I am allowed to use that term here but some are. They think too much and they take tiny tiny things and make a big deal out of it. It might be the hormonal thing but that is something you have no control over. Every female goes through that and as men we just have to suck it up and face it. Also, it's possible that she wanted to eat lunch with you instead of you eating lunch by yourself. I recommend that you talk to her and ask her what happen and just be open. Girls are confusing and they come in many packages. No matter how hard you try to learn, there is always this one personality that will drive you nutts and make you wonder wat the hell you did wrong. So just be open, they love that stuff and talk about it. if its a misunderstanding, let her know and clear it up. Never ever ignore it cuz it might build up and end up biting you later on.

I think a more politically correct term for "attention whore" would be a "drama queen". Which is a girl who blows things way out of proportion just because she enjoys it when people's feathers are ruffled.

Now, as far as whether your girlfriend is like this or not no one on a forum can make that judgement since we don't know her in person and can only look at one isolated incident. I agree with the post above, if you really care about her then talking it out should be what you would want to do anyways. It could be an issue with hormonal imbalances but more than likely I would guess it is something else. She could have just been having a really crappy day (parents, friends, pet died, i dunno, a lot of things can cause a bad day) which when coupled with a period and then you postponing pre-made plans it could have just set her off. Go talk it out, its the only way to solve relationship problems.

Most mood swings are not actually severe. Like both of them said above, your girlfriend is probably blowing her pms out of proportion. She may be doing it just because she can get away with it and when she was a kid, even before she ever got her period she got her way by throwing bitchfits. Here is the problem, it may be a minor medical condition causing her mood swings to become sever, but you can't say anything like that to her. You have to put up with it and let her win everything. If you mention seeing a doctor or just that she is being annoying she will only get worse. It will be throwing fuel into the fire. Just let her get her way and if it really starts to get to be a problem then when she isn't pmsing, have a heart to heart with her that her mood swings are a little too sever and that she should consult medical help about it. There are pills that will help here ease up and relax but these are the "im about to break up with her" last resort.

Mood swings are never fun to put up with.. My ex was a bad one at her time of the month and we would always argue. I'm not talking about little arguements here i'm on about full blown screamin at eachother i meen mood swings are a normal thing but girls CAN control them. If like your gf is doing, they swing out in certain ways they are just craving attention and if i was you id speak to her about them and explain how you feel.

Of what I've heard, it is very normal. Some girls just have it more than others. I know one that really, really looks angry. Like she wants to kill someone or something. But normally she's just herself (pretty, very pretty ).

Perfectly normal, annoying as it is. I've plenty stories I could relate about this subject -but I'd rather not
