He claims that I was "more willing to try new things" when i was on it (i.e., swinging). Actually, it was the desperation, not the meds.


Classic manipulation. In fact, I think it could be used as an example in Psychology 101.

Sorry, sister, but I want to slap your husband to China myself. He wants you to take anti-anxiety meds so you can be comfortable with swinging, not for you, only for him?

I know this is a pro-marriage board and all ... but in the immortal acronym of Dan Savage, DTMFA. Save yourself.


ABSOLUTELY! I think most of us would LOVE to slap your H.

Spybunny - Please, please, please THINK! You do not deserve to be treated like this.
