:marse!ycommittedwoman: Least mentally ill ZeroCovid user catches her boyfriend cheating on her with the deadly virus :marseycovidscare: :marseyh!earts:

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

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. :marseyindignantwoman:

"Wait, babe! It's not what it looks like!" :marseyhearts: :m!arseycovidscare:

I'm so sorry

You need to do what is best for you

I can't imagine the shock and hurt you're going though

I'm really sorry x

Poetry! :marseyshakespeare:

Thanks :( I really do feel so shocked, I've always been scared this could happen but I really never expected it from him? I financially depend on him so much too idk what to do

He could really push this a lot further. :gigachad2:

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. :marseychonkerfoidpuke:

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! :marseyblops2cel:

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... :marseycoomer:

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 β€” 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. :marseylongpost:

the main issue i see here in terms of y'all's relationship is that he readily admitted he wasn't going to tell you about it. if he had told you about it before you approached him about it, then you would have been able to decide if you were comfortable being around him, if you wanted to take extra precautions around each other for a bit, etc. since he didn't, that is where my mind would start wandering in terms of how often he has considered something β€œlow risk” and decided not to mask up, potentially putting you (and others) at risk. :marseylongpost2:

i'm sorry you're dealing w this, op. unfortunately, there is no right answer here, especially since you mentioned that you are largely financially dependent on your partner. i hope yall can figure things out going forward, even if it means going your separate ways. :marseywords:

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

The rare double-cuck relationship! :soyquack: :soyquack:

Please don't let reddit sabotage your relationship. I am here because I've have covid 6 times due to my big household not caring. My partner cares but he's forgotten once because it's the norm in society now. I don't blame him, he's remembered every other time.

:marseyjesus2: Downvote me to heck, I implore you all but as someone looking to avoid this I also have to be rational and understand it isn't as important to the people in my life as it is to me who's had a vaccine reaction and keeps getting it. I'm infuriated by it, it's so unfair but the world is moving on without me. Check out my post history for the reaction deets, I genuinely can't afford to catch it this much and I do and I'm still here. Please remember me it you ever catch it and feel anxious, if I can fight it so much you likely can too. Keep dodging it and I hope you never have to deal with it β™‘

Le suffering servant has arrived. But still, this technically qualifies as the voice of sanity.


All this has happened before, and all this will happen again:marseycovidscare: :m!arseyscared:

How do these Zero Covid people end up having Covid six times??? I've had it twice and never take any precautions, am surrounded by people all the time for work, travel all the time, etc.

I haven't had it. In fact I've never went 4 years without getting sick until now. COVID was awesome.

That's because pretty much every cold will test positive as covid even when it's not. That's by design

I'm going with the theory that with all the excessive precautions they've taken their immune system is functionally useless :marseyvaxmaxx: just because it's perfect cosmic irony

>I've had it twice and never take any precautions,

You noticing an infection depends on how your immune system reacts to it. It's quite possible you had it more often but never noticed.

I've read that for breeding purposes, it's best to pair a bad immune system with a good one, as otherwise you run the risk of autoimmune diseases if the immune system is too active

I take zero precautions and I've never had it lmao

These are the same people that have half the DSM in their Twitter and Tumblr bios though. They're most likely lying about the amount of times they've had COVID too.

I have a friend who I think is immune. He was around me when I had it, never caught it.

Despite this he has been vaxxed five times. Absolutely mental

I have all my shots so I guess I don't take zero precautions, but I stopped wearing a mask and all that crap the second I got my first shot.

Hypochondria.

I had COVID once and it was honestly more mild than the flu/colds I had in 2019 and 2023. Actually the flu I had in 2019 rocked me way harder, when I came down with COVID I tested positive and then ski toured 2500ft vert that afternoon before feeling bad that night lmao

Had it three times that i know. Basically was the flu at 75% strength but lasted longer. Not fun but not worth a freak out either
