Not to alarm you, but I believe that is a sign that the devil is in your house.

I've never been in that much pain. Not when I dropped a 25lb plate on my toe and smashed it, not when I almost cut my thumb off in the snow blower. On a scale of 1 to 10 this was 20. The doc at urgent care gave me a shot of some kind of anti-inflammatory and it literally took 10 min for it to smash the pain away. Holy smokes what a relief. I didn't even need to take another pain killer. I don't know what caused this **** but I never want to deal with it again.

I don't remember what that anti inflammatory was, it started with a T, but that was good sht. The urgent care doc was surprised my gp didn't give me something stronger than advil for the swelling in my sinuses. I'm starting to wonder about this dude.

Toradol likely... Probably the most potent non steroidal anti inflammatory.

Did the doc not diagnose the issue and tell you his thoughts or did you just not listen?

She wasn't a swinger when I started dating her. She was just starting to date her husband and a bit ****ty. He was a male wh0re himself (said he's been with 150+ woman at that point) and I watched as they almost got divorced multiple times (they got married after 4 or 5 months of dating) because of suspected infidelity from both.

In a much more elegant way, he eventually sat down and said "look... You like ****ing other men, I like ****ing other woman... Why don't we just do it together".

It's been a story book ending ever since...

I read his book: "In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks: . . . And Other Complaints from an Angry Middle-Aged White Guy", which was basically an auto biography. It was pretty damn entertaining and really delves into why he is the way he is...

Worth a read.

Gekko makes an interesting point, I can't imagine being comfortable with my significant other being friends with someone who lives that life.

No clue... He was 32 at the time and she was 26. They hit it off hot and heavy being that they had their favorite thing in common. I think neither should have gotten married, but they likely did so because society says that's what they are supposed to do... Timing with their age, etc/ect.

Now, I actually think if they are to be married, it may as well be to each other. No one else would deal with them.

Fwiw... As I said, they had just met when we did. They didn't start swinging until a couple years later and we only found out because they lost their camera at our house after a party. We turned it on to see who's it was and the first pic was of his wife going down on another woman. Needless to say... We felt inclined to see the rest of the photos. We didn't even tell them we knew for another 6 months.

I had told that story before... But since then, we honestly don't hang out with them any more. They moved to chicago where there's a big swingers crowd apparently and we live in Florida. Even when they are in town, it's too see one of their multiple FB swinger friends and we don't hear from them. We are not a part of that relatively closed door society, so they kind of moved on... Now the only time we talk is when exchanging pleasantries like: "congrats on having a baby".
