Combo breaker

Today, in the middle of an argument, my husband picked me up and sat me on our breakfast bar. I’m terrified of heights so getting down took me over 5 minutes because of how bad I was shaking. He left to meet his friends, who “don’t start arguments just because they’re bored.” FML

if you can be picked up and set down on it, it's what, at MOST 6 feet high? 5 minutes to psych yourself up for probably a 3 foot drop while sitting? idek the whole context but you sound annoying

A lot of whether or not YDI as well (I agree that this sucks, regardless of if you deserved it or not], depends on how fair your husband's accusation is and how disproportionate his response was. If he's just being an ass by ending the argument this way and there was a legitimate need for a discussion that escalated, well, then, yeah, he just sucks. If indeed, this was totally needless, well, then why pick that fight?

If you in fact started the argument because you were bored, then I think you got what was coming for you.

Sorry, the breakfast bar. What’s your height? Are you scared of walking down stairs too because a step is too high for you?

Huh... So there is an "off switch." All kidding aside because if you genuinely did start an argument just because you were bored, you absolutely deserve it. There are better ways to communicate. Learn them.

It's incredible that every other commenter is ignoring that your husband effectively chose to torture you - your husband is sadistic, leave him. If you were afraid of knives, would he have stabbed you a dozen times, and if so, would all the other commenters be leaving comments about how annoying you sound and thus deserve to be stabbed?

you're scared to jump down 3 feet? that's not even a height. you didn't even need to jump, you could have turned around and put one foot down

Okay, I'm terrified of heights, but seriously how tall is that bar? If you're a grown adult, your feet would maybe be two feet off the floor tops if they're dangling... when you're standing, you're taller than the bar. So I can't imagine being so petrified of heights that you can't even get down off a bar.

time to find a level headed divorce lawyer. If your husband is aware of your condition and did it anyway and left you there, it's a form of abuse
