Q&A: Menstrual Cycle During the Honeymoon
Menstrual Cycle During the Honeymoon
Question
My wife and I are on a honeymoon we waited a very long time for. She got her period, and we don’t know what to do. Do we have permission not to observe the distancing restrictions?
P.S. I’m not sure I even want to hear the answer 😔
Answer
Unfortunately, the answer is that there is no permission.
Try to find non-physical ways to show affection and love. I think that in the end you’ll be glad you held up under it. A shared challenge and mutual longing strengthen the relationship. I hope and wish that you will still have long lives together, and a time for every purpose under heaven.
Discussion on Answer
You can find them in any overview of the niddah distancing restrictions. Some of them are disputed, and if it’s difficult then you can be lenient. There’s an overview, for example, on Wikipedia: <a href="https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%94%D7%A8%D7%97%D7%A7%D7%95%D7%AA_%D7%94%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%93%D7%94" rel="nofollow">https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%94%D7%A8%D7%97%D7%A7%D7%95%D7%AA_%D7%94%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%93%D7%94</a>
But of course there are others as well (some of the overviews are listed there below in the notes).
Thank you very much.
All types of physical distancing restrictions as well (holding hands, etc.)?
