This is a really weird question, but I have a terrible fear of farting in front of my boyfriend-I even ahve had to make up an excuse and not see him, even though wanted to, becuase I was gassy and afraid of farting in front of him. The od part is, he farts in front of me all the time and I never care at all. I'm not sure that he'd care...but I worry becuase he has no sisters or girl cousins so I'm not sure he exactly understands girls do fart and it's not really "cute". So my question is actually a multitude of questions- what should I do about the present situtation, what's your oppinion on the whole girlfriend farting in front of boyfriend acceptibility, and do you have an personal stories?

Release the gas without making an issue out of it. With luck it will be silent and not have an offensive smell.
If however, you make a slight noise, say pardon me or excuse me and carry on doing whatever you were doing without making a big deal of it.
If you are out in public and think you are going to do a loud fart, pop to the ladies to save any embarrasment.
If you constantly have excessive gas then you may need to make changes in your diet or seek help from your doctor.
Approach the subject of farting with your partner and find out his thoughts.

I know exactly what you mean, i actually avoided my boyfriends staying overnight as i was so paranoid about it. My hubby has a great attitude about it though and put me at ease very quickly. It was actually on our wedding day(I know what you are thinking, you dont want to wait till you are married but you dont have to, i was only with my hubby for 3 weeks before the wedding) that he "freed me from my self consiousness" LOL. I think it stems from the way your family are, my family just dont fart!!!!!!
I can fart and snore in bed and sleep soundly and not care now!!

The issue is how comfortable you are with your boyfriend. If it doesn't bother you when he sounds off, the it shouldn't bother him when you do. I think the issue is rather funny, but equality in the household of Mr. & Mrs. Methane is important.
After I had developed a real comfort zone with a past girlfriend, we just laughed a lot. If it was me or her, one of us would say "S**t, I can't take you anywhere," or "I'm glad this isn't our first date!" or "Do you mind repeating that?" Check out fart.com for a lot of more information and hilarity. It is funny and I hope your boyfriend is OK about it.

I say, "Let her rip!" He might even think it's funny. The way I see it; it's natural to have to let some out at times. I realize it's "bad etiquite" but, what can you do? I suppose if possible try to release it outdoors or in the bathroom.

Hey - Everybody farts, so he shouldn't mind if you do it either. Let one rip, and just see how he reacts!
