SKL my boyfriend treats my cycle like a full research project

I casually mentioned “I’m in luteal phase” once and this man opened Google like he was preparing for board exams.

Now he randomly says things like “ovu?” “what phase ka ngayon?” or “hormones are hormon-ing today haaa”

I don’t know if I should be offended when he says “I just know…” how to handle me when I’m being sensitive or dramatic but honestly I think it’s the sweetest thing ever?

He’s been trying to learn the cycle, ano yung nangyayari sa bawat phase, what symptoms, how to deal with it, bakit may cravings, all of it. Tapos minsan siya pa yung nagse-send sakin ng reels about women’s cycle. This man has CHARTS in his head.

Last night we were talking about the difference between my menstrual and luteal phases kasi in his words I’m 'scary' in both pero apparently may slight difference daw in intensity na ina-analyze niya like it’s a case study ...??

Plus points kasi biglang titigil siya mid-convo to say he respects us women for going through it every month 😭

Like wow… emotional intelligence in this economy…

Anyway I just needed to get this off my chest kasi ang comforting lang talaga ng feeling na being loved through understanding instead of judgment. Babi, if ever this shows up on your feed, thank you for making me feel seen :”)
