My boyfriend freaked out because I had a threesome

It happened before we were together, but he can't handle it and he's being a real jerk.

    i agree with the guy

    But wait....am I the only who noticed this is not at all Cary's usual tone? Did a ghost-writer write that or something? Just strikes me as odd, the tone and content.

    But why all the bashing on the boyfriend? I'm a guy, and I can relate, totally. Granted, he's being immature. What he really should do is drop the relationship immediately. She is not his type at all. If his original un-forced-by-therapy reaction was to be cool with it, then they've got a future. But he reacted as I would, and needs to find a different woman to raise children and spend his life with. It's all rooted in jealousy. Because you want to be your wife's first and only male in a threesome. You don't want to consider the fact that your wife lived out a powerful fantasy with just some dude. Or worse, some dude she really loved at the time. The only man that will not react this way is either so beaten down and depressed that he thinks he is lucky to have her, and could do no better than her, or a man who has had so much sex with so many women and possibly men that he really gives a rats ass what the woman has done in her own past. They could talk about their exploits and laugh about it. Now there would be a good match for her.
