Today, my husband and I bought a new swing for our front porch. We put it together and sat down to enjoy our accomplishment. 5 minutes into our swing I threw up several times. I have really bad motion sickness, and apparently a swing is no exception. FML

So was your childhood nonexistent? Or is motion sickness one of those things you can develop as an adult (assuming you're not pregnant or anything)?

Why didn't you get off after you threw up the first time? I'll bet your sex life is very dynamic ;) You probably lay there like a boat anchor to keep from puking.

I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe go to the doctor for some medications? I'm just curious though, how do you handle driving?

As long is I'm upfront or driving I'm fine. I think its just the motion of going back and forth that doesn't work for me

Does it look nice on your porch at least? Or did you hang it on your double-wide to try to class up the flamingos and neon beer signs?

That is just unnecessarily rude. What about her FML makes you assume she fits the 'trailer trash' stereotype?

Probably because I'm from NC!! But that's ok guys she doesn't bother me! I actually live in a 1500 sq ft house that is PAID FOR with straight cash that I inherited. I'm 22 and my husband is 23, we also own 13 acres of land. Anything else you wanna criticize me about go ahead I can and will prove you wrong

I guess a sex swing will not be in order after that incident huh?

So, I take it a future sex swing is out of the question?

Motion sickness that severe must really suck however, why didn't you get off the porch and move to the yard/lawn/bathroom after the first time you puked?

I did move to the lawn thank you! But I was still throwing up. Bathroom was not an option

I'm guessing the swing is one of those bench like swings so you can sit down and relax as you pass by the time. And I'm guessing that you guys were swinging pretty hard. Try just relaxing by sitting it it, or swing only a few inches back and forth. Get used to it before trying to go too fast.

Motion sickness is often the result of a vision problem. Get your eyes checked. You might be surprised.

Oh, swings are the worst for me and sickness. I've taken cruises, spun myself dizzy on amusement rides but a swing will have me puking in under 20 seconds!
