My boyfriend never dares to buy for me,lol. Even I am feeling sick,if I need the pads,I still need to go out with him to buy myself. I as a medical student is not sensitive to this thing but for him maybe because of a man's ego. He will always act shy and avoid my question whenever I ask him to buy for me. He looks cute anyways. Sometimes I just want to try to tease him,but he is acting weird to this thing,lol. What do you think? Did your boyfriend or husband ever buy the sanitary pads for you? Please share,thanks.

Only Young man cares about this kind of things. If you got married, your husband probably will not care. It is not very hard.

Maybe it's true. Now still in dating time,maybe it likes too personal to buy this stuff. It would be different when get married in future perhaps. Thanks.

yeah he will if he thinks no one will buy for me...but it really never happen since im always had something extra..or even had my daughters to buy for me..and i even can ask my son on it..so no problem here...i guess for me huh theres really nothing wrong in it..but since males have different upbringing and you know as what you have said above the ego...

It's true. For my boyfriend's case,I think is about a man's ego that makes him shy to buy the pads. But it's alright with me because I always buy extra unless I forget. Thanks for the response.

My boyfriend doesn't mind buying them for me if I need them and he's out or I don't feel good so I want to stay home. He has no problem buying them for me. Maybe if he were still a young teenager or soemthing. I don't know why men have problems with that sometimes. After all, obviously they are not for him! Besides, it's a normal cycle of life and a product women need, so who cares?

Maybe it is a tough task for some men like my boyfriend. Anyways, I won't force him to buy for me if he refuses,as long as he drives me there,that's enough,lol.Thanks for sharing.

I used to buy my sister pads. hahaha. I dont think I have something to lose, people wont think that I am going to use it anyway. Besides, my sister feels sick everytime she needs those pads.

Hahaha. You are right. It's good that you have this type of mindset. Maybe my country a bit different,men are more traditional. Thanks for the comment.

No, my husband doesn't mind buying them for me. At first he sort of felt funny, but when the check out clerk never made him feel funny the didn't care after that. I have literally been on my last one and forgot to buy more and he has been a doll to get me some more.

My husband never says no to buy sanitary pads for me, I ask him only when I need it urgently he understands the situation and gets that for me.

My husband buys pads for me sometimes. I know he's a bit conscious whenever he does but I just tell him if he's going to encounter questions, all he has to do is answer briefly, "It's for my wife." It doesn't happen all the time anyway, but only in rare times I can't go out for some reason.

I wouldnt dare ask my boyfriend as knowing him he will pick up the wrong pack or forget. I work in a store so is easier for me to pick them up myself. I have seen many men buying such products and they dont seem bothered. I dont think he would mind picking them up for me. I have known women who have been embarrassed about asking the shop-floor lads where these products were so asked me instead!!!

good day.. I'm a man and a doctor but I never mind if my fiancee would ask me to buy her a pad. I wouldn't mind specially when she had a dysmenorrhea which can be at times painful. I want to help her in anyway I can.
