To have answered this question from DH truthfully?

Watching TV and a character mentioned making a sex tape with a partner. DH asked if I’d ever done that. I said yes, years ago, as a young woman, and that I’d been the only person with access to the video which is long since deleted. He’s now gone off in a nuclear huff using phrases I’m very pissed off about such as “I thought you were better than that.”

Was I being unreasonable to have answered truthfully? He’s done lots of things in his past that I disagree with (and had far more sex with far more partners than me!) and this feels like a double standard!!

YANBU that's really nasty of him @Nowhereelsetogo90 . We all do unwise things sometimes, especially when younger.

I see your Debbie Does Dallas and raise you a Danish Dentist On The Job.

Promo: When he fills a cavity, it feels marvellous!

But I digress. Surely this ludicrous chain of persistence deserves to go into Classics?

Ask him if he would have preferred you lied about it.

Glad you seem to have sorted it out.

I, as a poker player, fold!

But I second the nomination!

And your insistence doesn't make it not so Hmm The fact is that we don't know. But the OP is asking if she is BU for her partner being angry she made a sex tape. And the fact is, it's probably been uploaded online and if my partner did this I would personally be upset by it.

You’re really determined, aren’t you?

What a bonkers hijack of a thread over a completely made up.scenario.

OP, I had an old video of me in my early 20s, with a boyfriend. Tbh it was so tame and I looked so magnificent then, I kind of wish it wasn't an a long destroyed vhs.

Your DH is being unfair and the PP who mentioned that he wanted to be your first experience probably hit the nail.on the head.

And I don't understand the difference between being angry they did something and being angry with them. Same thing, surely?

No, not IMO. The (incorrectly quoted) post questioned whether I would be angrier towards my partner if they filmed a sex tape and not against the person that uploaded it, and my response was that I would not be angry at my partner for doing such, but would be angry at the situation in general if it meant there was a sex tape of my partner online.

I've just read through all of your comments and wholly agree with the consensus that you've made a tit of yourself.

FYI......very disappointed that no one has got my Debbie Does Dallas reference......

I got the reference, was going to reply but the mansplaining merailer had me in stitches.
Poor man, never understanding all the polite responses to his misogyny.
Oh but if you just explain, I can mansplain some more and still I get your attention, which is all I ever wanted, whoopee

Just because you don't agree with me doesn't mean I'm wrong.
The OP doesn't know if there is a sex tape online, none of us know, that's my point. She filmed a sex tape with her ex and he had the opportunity to put it online and may have done so.

OP has said, in plain language, that she was the only one with access.

For example, filmed on a phone - her phone. Locked phone. Ex doesn’t know passcode. OP chooses not to send it to him and later deletes it. Hence, only one with access.

I’m not sure how you’ve established he’s some kind of pro-hacker. 😂

@Keyansier

She filmed a sex tape with her ex and he had the opportunity to put it online and may have done so.

OP has clearly stated that she was the only person to have access to the video and that she deleted it a long time ago.

So why do you insist there is still a possibility he could have shared it online? He never had it to share.

Why do you think you know better than her about her own life?

There is a famous saying "don't ask questions you don't want the answer to" that your DH could have done with learning before tonight.
He's being an idiot.

This.

HIS reply would give me the Ick.

You have EVERY right to be very pissed off at this reply.

Berk.

I'dve thought the average person in this day and age would just find it funny that their spouse did something like that long ago.
