At the suggestion of my girlfriend, I recently picked up an app called “Clue” that tracks her monthly cycle.
Similar apps have slogans like, “Saving relationships, one month at a time!” for a good reason. It turns out that:
- Knowing to be supportive instead of defensive if your partner is irritable or otherwise not feeling their best is really awesome.
- If you happen to date one of the many women that evolution has strongly wired to be naturally more interested in sex during her “fertility window”, that can be nice to know about too.
If your partner supports the idea, I recommend this as an interesting new way to add extra guardrails to your relationship.
