There's something that's been bugging me for a while now, and I figure--if I can't ask this here, where can I?
So for the last year and a half, ever since I moved across the country and started working, I've been a bit... well... gassy. I constantly feel like I'm trying to hold one in, and although I've perfected the art to a point that my risk of dusting the crops in normal social situations is minimal, I worry about more intimate moments. I used to cuddle with my friends all the time in college, and it was blissfully gas-free, but nowadays I avoid even sharing the same couch with someone lest they suspect the intense physical struggle I am constantly going through. It's gotten to the point that on the rare occasion that I have a party or a date, I only eat white rice the whole day (which, fun fact: does not make you fart). I may or may not have a guy who I have the potential of future close contact with, and I cannot imagine my mortification if I were to inadvertently bless him with a gust of wind.
I am not sure exactly what could be causing this. My diet is pretty normal and consistent nutritionally. I have gained a little weight (maybe 5 pounds?) but that's actually placed me in a healthier range than I was before. My physical activity level is woefully inadequate, but I'm not sure that would be the only cause.
So, fellow social awkwardites of the world, do you have any suggestions/personal stories/name-calling for a flatulent female?
