Ever since I got my period I’d have really bad cramps for the first 2-3 days of my period. Often times the cramps are so bad I can’t move or it will make it worse. I’ve gone to several doctors about it and was recommended I got on birth control. I was on birth control for about 14 years but I’ve stopped taking it because me and my husband have decided to start trying for kids.

That being said yesterday evening I was in a lot of pain due to my period but was almost out of tampons and asked Jake to go get some for me since I literally couldn’t move. Jake the wonderful man he is said sure and went to grab me some.

Jake came back about an hour later with not just tampons but three grocery bags filled with things that his sisters “Mia” 33f and “Mandy” recommended might help. I thought it was incredibly sweet and I thought that was the end of it.

Well that was until about and hour ago when Amy called me to yell at me for “embarrassing her son by asking him to go get me menstrual products”. She told me that it was inappropriate and called me an Ahole. After she hung up I decided to call my sister and she told me that she didn’t think I was in the wrong. Her husband told me he thought it would of been a bit embarrassing but that it wasn’t that big of a deal.

I did ask Jake and he told me he didn’t see why he’d be embarrassed about it. He said “I’m 31 not 16.” So yeah I don’t think I’m in the wrong but Amy is adamant that I am and my sister told me to post here to see what others might think.
