Man’s expectations leave woman taken aback

DEAR HARRIETTE: I started dating a guy a couple of months ago. We’re still getting to know each other, and recently he told me something new about himself, and I’m not sure how I feel about it. Sometimes we spend the night together, and yes, if you’re wondering, when we do, we are usually physically intimate. Recently, he invited me over for a nightcap and I went, but when I shared that I was on my period, he asked that I let him know in advance so he can “manage [his] expectations.” He claims he’s still happy to invite me over, but he wants to be aware so he’s not anticipating something he can’t have.
