My little sister has been in a cold war with her boyfriend for over a month. She constantly complaints to me about how her boyfriend drives her up the wall. I asked her, "Are you on your period?" She replied, "Yes, what’s wrong with that?" I burst into laughter.
My sister, a Leo, has always had a fiery temper. When she’s on her period, she’s like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode at any moment. Her friends and boyfriend dare not provoke her, for fear of her wrath. You can imagine the power of "Aunt Flo" based on this alone.
Throughout history, "Aunt Flo" has been a source of contention for couples, the ultimate third wheel! Guys can’t empathize because they don’t have periods, so they end up just telling their girlfriends to drink more hot water.
Now, I’m going to let the guys in on a little secret! There’s no need to fear this "third wheel." I’ll show you how to keep your relationship sweet and long-lasting with your girlfriend, even during her period. You need to understand your opponent first. Let’s see whatconstellation your opponent is.
① Earth Signs
Earth signs are usually pretty reserved, and they become even more so during their period. For example, a Taurus woman may not be as irritable, but she’ll withdraw into silence… complete silence… and then, there’s no turning back.
Capricorns, on the other hand, will see themselves as powerful during this time, believing they can survive even after losing a week’s worth of blood. They’ll continue to study and work, taking care of themselves logically.
Virgos are clever and won’t let their period get the best of them. They’ll pay extra attention to their hygiene and make sure they always look presentable.
So, for earth signs, guys, just keep quiet and show your concern through actions. They’re all about actions, not words.
② Fire Signs
Fire signs are all about passion and can become extremely fiery during their period. A Leo woman is like a firecracker, ready to explode at any moment. Aries and Sagittarius are also spicy, and they can become short-tempered during their period. If you’re on their bad side, you might get a taste of their wrath, but don’t take it personally. They’ll blow off steam and then be back to normal.
For fire signs, just let them vent and don’t take it to heart. They love to hear compliments, so give them what they want. It’s just for a few days, so bear with it!
③ Air Signs
Air signs like Libra, Gemini, and Aquarius are known for their easygoing nature. They won’t let their period stop them from enjoying life. Even if they’re in pain, they’ll still go out and have fun.
Libras might be a bit lazy during their period, preferring to tough it out rather than take care of themselves. Geminis don’t even acknowledge their period exists, and Aquarius women are too independent to let it slow them down.
For air signs, just be there for them and show your support. They might be self-reliant, but a little nurturing goes a long way.
④ Water Signs
Water signs, including Pisces, Cancer, and Scorpio, are drama queens during their period. Pisces women become extra sensitive, and you need to tread carefully around them. Cancer women need the warmth of home, and they’ll appreciate a hot drink and a gentle touch. Scorpios require constant attention and reassurance.
For water signs, you need to be attentive to details. They can be emotional roller coasters, so be prepared for the ups and downs.
So, gentlemen, do you see your opponent clearly now? Knowing your enemy is half the battle! I’ve also got a tip for you—Swisse has set up an "Aunt Flo Research Institute" to tackle this tricky issue, giving men a fighting chance!
Actually, there’s more to helping your girlfriend during her period than just drinking hot water. Swisse’s Evening Primrose Oil Capsules contain gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a long-chain fatty acid that can help calm "Aunt Flo’s" temper. It can relieve menstrual cramps and even help prevent them if taken in advance.
A female colleague in our studio tried these capsules and said they worked wonders. She took them for a few months and went from being bedridden to being able to go about her day without painkillers, even doing some light exercise. It’s worth a try for all the ladies out there.
The institute also launched a "KO Aunt Flo" pill box, a thoughtful and convenient tool that can remind you to take your Evening Primrose Oil on time, no matter where you are. Guys, it’s time to show your caring side and get this tool to tackle Aunt Flo!
Finally, there’s a little game where you can find out theconstellation personality of your "Aunt Flo," so you can deal with her effectively.
My "third wheel guide," or rather, "Aunt Flo guide," might be a bit late, but I’ve got some for the guys: not only are there discounts at Vipshop, but you can also win free gifts by participating in theconstellation test. It’s a win-win situation—making your girlfriend happy and enjoying some deals too!
