Well, farting is not something you consider when you think of different ways to strengthen your relationship. Actually, farting means that you feel comfortable next to your partner and it can keep the relationship going for a long time.
Yes, farting is something most of us don’t feel comfortable to do in front of their partner or other people in general. It might be because we want to look perfect for other people and our bodily functions can be pretty embarrassing. But the more you spend together with your other half, the more the boundaries disappear and you will do and talk about more gross stuff.
A family psychologist Leah Decesare has researched the secret of long lasting relationships and found out that the most important thing is trust and sincerity – which means being open and honest with your partner. She wrote in her book “Naked Parenting” that the first time she farted in front of her partner changed their relationship for good.
Her husband understood at that moment, that they are spending the rest of their lives together. This usually is more true, when the female part of the relationship farts in front of her partner.
Women are seen as these discreet and delicate things, almost as aliens. But farting in front of a partner makes a woman more human, which creates empathy and strengthens the bond between the partners. This also means that you are not holding yourself back and showing your true self to your other half.
When you think about it, farting is a natural body function and is no different from laughing, crying or eating. So, if you want your relationship to last long – start farting in front of your partner.
