For once I agree!
"I don't know if I can ever trust him again after this." Yes you do know. You can't trust him.
"Wait, babe! It's not what it looks like!"
Poetry!
He could really push this a lot further.
Seems like every foid's got some frumpy 300 pound Iago whispering "leeeeaaave him!" in her ear. Strangely, it often works. Imagine if men in relationships listened to angry incels for advice!
However, in this case I think a breakup would probably be good for both of them. Though the ideal scenario would be if he gets covid and pins her down and...
The rare double-cuck relationship!
Le suffering servant has arrived. But still, this technically qualifies as the voice of sanity.

If the only things anyone did were things people paid them to do, the only things that would ever get done are the things the wealthy find profitable. What a sad world that would be.
Some of us volunteer at parks.
Some of us volunteer at soup kitchens.
Some of us volunteer advice and knowledge.
Is this really that much different?
Yeah, Reddit is a for-profit company. It's still worth it to volunteer moderation duties to ensure that people have a corner to discuss and debate without having to worry about bullies. Sure, it would be nice to get a free subscription to Premium or something, but that's not going to be the main motivation.
I use uBlock Origin. This is my way of paying back the site. Well, that and all the awards I give away or generate.
And believe you me, I very much enjoy moderating bullies and keeping vulnerable populations safe from their bullying. Clicking "ban" on some random racist so they can't call someone names? Ohhhh that's payment enough.

He will do this again. Gas stations and stores are the easiest easiest places to mask. Please keep yourself safe.:

Nope. I always have 2 extra masks on me because I'm very serious about precautions. If I had one and it broke, I'd put off my errands, go home, grab some, and then continue them. He's lying. He probably has verbalized/shown he's not on the same page as you with precautions or covid facts before. I'm so glad I'm single since this began. People rarely care and it's mostly women that do care. Please break up and save yourself.:

i would find it difficult to trust him again after witnessing him going into a store unmasked. is it possible that his mask broke and he thought running into the gas station quickly would be lower risk? yes. is it possible he used that excuse as a cover up? also yes. it sucks not knowing. you know him better than any of us — listen to your gut. if what he needed inside wasn't urgent, he could have waited until he had a new mask to go back. stuff like this (this being masks breaking and not having a spare on hand) sucks, and, albeit annoying, it does happen.:

We have been together for over five years and he's never wavered before, to my knowledge, and he's not ever done anything to break my trust. He's stuck by my side in masking the entire pandemic, and does seem truly remorseful and immediately moved to mask in the house for my sake. He's also been very mentally exhausted from his insane job and I've been noticing him making thoughtless mistakes in general lately due to it, so I am inclined to believe he just didn't think about it. But to your point, how do I know that that isn't a recurring thing… The lying/withholding is the bit that does really get me, too. This just sucks so bad. Given that I do love this person and he's never done anything remotely like this (I know we're questioning this, but he also travels internationally for work and masks and takes precautions there like masking, not going out to/eating at work dinners, etc.) so I'm gonna try to calm down and think about it for a while, maybe relationship counseling or something idk… I appreciate the thoughtful and insightful comment, it was a helpful perspective:
