I do floss but I think it's quite normal for your gums to bleed of someone was poking them with a sharp object.

(also, I once had a dentist who told me I should floss more - I can't floss because my teeth are too close to each other - and I said I was struggling, he should show me how to do it right. So he had to push the floss between my teeth using his body weight and ended up cutting my gums really deep in the process and then I was like: so how do I do this on my own?? and he just said: never mind, just keep doing how you do already, you do have good teeth, you can't floss with so small gaps either way. but the fact that you have them let you hurt you just to prove them you don't do it because you're lazy or stupid but because it's not possible...)

i wish that was me. But it was hard enough to find a dentist in this town :/

The gaps on my front teeth are really small too! I have a retainer so it really is a struggle. My dentist wants me to use those small brushes but the smallest size is still to big. I use super floss and tweezers now, still hurts like hell.

if it hurts too much or gets stuck or you hurt yourself more often than you manage, chances are the gaps are too small and it won't do any good
like, if you brush your teeth twice a day every day and all, with tiny gaps, there won't be a lot of things stuck between your teeth that'll do them harm
like your worst enemy would be spit and all which causes plaque which you can't prevent with flossing and is something a dentist will need to remove either way, so not much you can do
(also, often when you can't floss because the gaps are too small and your dentist asks if you floss and you just say yes, they can't see a difference. Like if they say ok and that's it, then your teeth are doing fine. It's only if they say you'd need to do it more often or use a diffrent tool and pint out where specifically that you need to look into other options)

Wow that's bizarre and sounds almost unprofessional depending why

As for the flossing/not flossing thing.... My old hygienist used to blame me "not flossing enough" on me bleeding a lot despite the fact that I floss pretty regularly, and then she was out sick one day so I had a substitute hygienist and with her I didn't bleed at all so whose fault was it really
