    You can't be logical to one who shows no logic.

    You just have to take it as it comes and not let it bother you. I've been married over 30 years and think I've seen it all but she keeps throwing curves at me now and then.

    In my 52 years, I have found that copius amounts of alcohol help me get through such times. Whether self-medicating with a few fingers of fine Kentucky bourbon, shaking up a stout pineapple martini for my wife, or both, it seems to take the edge off of things until the hormones level out.

    The answer to your question is yes.

    How you deal with that is something else. Are you living the life you want to be living and where does she fit in?...there you go.

    If you want to put your razors into protective custody, I'll volunteer to foster them for a while

    I think we all (aka men and women) have our crazy moments, but if you go at it from a logical point of view, these things typically can be 1) seen from a mile away, and 2) avoided.

    First, get scientific. Figure out when she actually has periods, then track what happens to her moods before, during, and after.

    Next, figure out what weapons you have that can protect you. I typically invest in a $4 bar of dark chocolate at Wal-Mart (believe me, it's an investment). Studies have shown that dark chocolate in particular reacts with our brain the same way sex does, but especially in women. If it's a really tough one, I pick up some flowers too.

    Last, assuming you did the above, just roll with it. Understand that the hormones produce some kind of weird psychosis and give her a break. Be charming, nice, and helpful for a week so she doesn't get mean and toss your razors. We all know what pushes our significant other's buttons- don't push 'em. Buy chocolate and/or ice cream as needed. Mine will apologize once she comes off it if she's been mean, plus give me some leeway when I get mean. It's win win.

    I would put all the razors in the safe, in case she decides to REALLY mess with your mind. I.e. not her damaging the razors but the other way round.

    Good points, and trust me, some day you gonna need that leeway, and you don't have hormone spikes to take the blame.
    What I also can't really understand is why guys don't talk about stuff like periods and such with their girlfriends/wifes, but instead sit there and spy on them like it's the freakin' cold war. Just chat to her about it, ask questions and eventually she'll start to tell you about it. Helps you to know when it's not her fault she's angry or sad, and it helps her to know she has someone to talk to in case she wants to. Usually just that knowledge might be the thing that keeps a temporary blues from becoming something bigger.

    AND just in case, stock up on chocolate and ice-cream. It might seem a bit chauvinistic to think that all women needs to stay happy is a bit of sugar and cocoa, but it actually seem to help...

    Most definitely! I talk with mine about almost every time. I don't get why it can't be a topic of conversation. I know guys that won't even mention the word tampon. Those guys are in for a world of hurt when it comes to talking about finances if something like a period is taboo

    EDIT: It's not chauvinistic at all. Don't say "here, you're being a bi*ch, have some treats". My typical line is "hey, I got you a present" or "I picked us up some ice cream while I was at the store. I thought we could have some tasty dessert". It's all in the delivery.

    Good advice, Mine does to after a few days, she'll apologize. I've done nothing wrong, other than being in the wrong place at the wrong time and uttering those words that get us all in trouble....
    "What's the matter?" or "Are you OK?"
