I think it would have been stronger to only state "that's your choice. This is who I am."
By bringing up the whole making love argument it actually weakens his cause as far as looking strong and not backing down because now he's trying to force this additional argument [/b]
Normally I would agree with you. In this case its not extraneous Right now he does need to bring it in as THE argument that is behind this particular conflict, because there needs to be equitability, and relational equality brought to forefront. The subject was his needs and feelings are valid. When they fight about (fillintheblank) Im sure HD would agree with you.
HD the next time you fight and she comes to bed late, give her a silent, warm, affectionate (not passionate) kiss.
