Last night she was coughing in a manner my asleep brain read as “gross”, so unconsciously noped the fuck out of there and slept on the sofa. I can’t believe my non-awake brain got it.

She tested positive a few hours ago, so now I just have 7 days to worry. I probably have it, I feel a bit off already.

I know that it’s more than most people, but she was wearing low quality masks, going to a non-safe dentist at peak times, and avoiding the booster. I’ve been nicely pushing her for years, and she brings this shit home. She’s also sorry, and I say it’s fine because I want her to feel better and recover, but secretly I’m fucking raging.

Sorry to rant. Better on Hexbear than out loud.

        For what it’s worth, I get it. When my partner started to feel a headache she tested immediately and opted to sleep on the sofa herself with a N95. And I did not catch it thanks to this. And when I got it months later I immediately did the same. I would be pissed too.

        It’s easy enough to understand your partner’s attitude given basically close to absolutely everyone doesn’t seem to even pretend there is a still-mutating virus with many unknowns going around though, sadly. Which is infuriating.
