I think this board is causing a problem between myself and DH

Recently I've found myself keeping distance between me and DH, and I've noticed feelings of insecurity reappearing when they've not been a problem for years and years. We're arguing a lot over minute things, and I have a strong feeling of needing to be assertive and defensive. Nothing DH had said or done had sparked this. In fact when I first confessed that I was feeling vaguely insecure he was great, because he knows what battles I've had with these feelings in the past. He broke down tonight after another argument and said he feels it's impossible to be good enough for me,I'm never satisfied and I don't listen.

We've agreed to try counselling.

Part of me wonders whether browsing through the catalogue of bastards on here has messed up my perceptions. I think it might have so backing away from this place is my plan, but I wonder what you guys think about this situation before I go? Is it possible that these threads have turned my subconscious into a prickly superbitch?

Anyways, this would be a lot of work changing proxies just to talk to myself.

Christ. Two browser windows open. Piece of piss.

No you have to actually find a good free proxy. Then navigate the awful slow connection. Are you still not convinced?

SonofAradia this section is depressing for women too. But I agree that most relationships aren't necessarily like these ones. This section makes me grateful for getting out of abusive first marriage and finding my wonderful DH.

aaaarggh you know if you insist on aligning yourself against the Relationships Board regulars, who on the whole are pretty nice people then you will attract weirdos like ken, who need very little encouragement to come on here and peddle their dubious agendas

unless that's ok by you of course

it doesn't mean you have to agree with everything you see, but appearing on every thread started that disses the board is kinda asking for everything you got on this thread really

Aaaarghforthelasttime · 08/02/2012 21:54

Right. SonOfAradia - Kens123 is NOT my fucking sock puppet. Christ.

Exactly. And there's the real value of it, depressing or not.

Frankly I don't give a shit. Just saying that the IP addy thing is a complete red herring and proves nowt.

AF. I am not aligning myself against anyone. I don't know what ken's agenda is precisely. He wasn't responding to my first, perfectly reasonable post on here...he was responding to me saying something about people recognizing me and namechanging etc. I have no idea why.

I have not appeared on every thread dissing the board. I'm sure there must have been threads like that before I appeared. There are very few posts with me as Aaargh.

Aaaarghforthelasttime · 08/02/2012 22:07

The OP wasn't written by me either.

Heyyyho · 08/02/2012 22:07

Ken I read what you wrote about DV and "reasons" for men murdering a spouse. You have a fucked up agenda!

kens123 · 08/02/2012 22:11

Not an agenda. Have I anything to gain by having an agenda? It seems you are paranoid dear girl

SonOfAradia · 08/02/2012 22:44

There are no reasons. None.
