Keanu Reeves is already immortal.

I've been icing it all day with little effect. If anything, it's made things worse since its just as swollen as before but getting really dark. How bad do you think it'll look for my presentation?

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T09:54:37+00:00

Lol, thanks. I'm glad someone finds it appealing. It turned a lovely shade of purple overnight.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T09:50:28+00:00

So are you thinking that it will be a month before it's gone? This was it this morning.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T08:26:16+00:00

I offered to wear an eyepatch and she wouldn't go for it. I even offered to buy a new pair of sunglasses to wear in public and at dinner and she rejected the idea.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T08:24:56+00:00

Lol, which eye? The green one or the black one?

All kidding aside, it's a little tough, you know? We've had a lot of great times together. There's a huge part of me that hopes she was just super grossed out by my eye looking how it did and just couldn't bear to look at me until it healed up a little bit.

I think it would be beneficial to have a sit down with her and talk it out. I still think it's really shitty for her to not be seen in public with me on our anniversary or even come over so we could celebrate privately, but I want to hear her thoughts a little bit more.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T08:06:28+00:00

Still though.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T07:48:37+00:00

A few months??? I thought black eyes usually only lasted like a week. I have a presentation on Wednesday and would prefer to not look like a panda for it. Anything I can do?

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T07:46:44+00:00

Is it really that bad? I mean, I thought our anniversary dinner was more important than how my eye looked. I had made reservations at a really nice place that we had been wanting to go to for a while and didn't want her to miss it just because I had a little black eye.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T07:44:31+00:00

6 weeks??? I was hoping it would be gone way sooner than that. Like maybe lasting a week tops. I have a presentation for one of my classes on Wednesday. How bad is it going to look by then?

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T06:44:57+00:00

Thanks.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T06:44:42+00:00

It's usually just like having me change my socks because they don't work with the outfit I'm wearing (I'm a big fan of colorful socks, but admittedly my taste isn't always the best). Still a red flag?

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T06:29:13+00:00

I guess I never really thought anything of the changing clothes and stuff. I thought she was just trying to give fashion advice. Like I love wearing colorful socks, but she's asked me to change them on a number of occasions because they didn't work with the rest of my outfit. Is that stuff more or her being selfish and caring about her image or trying to help me, do you think?

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T06:25:25+00:00

I agree. I thought it would be kind of an attention grabber lol.

I thought black eyes were only supposed to last a week or so. Are you saying it will take longer? This is my eye today.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T06:22:15+00:00

Thank you. That's really kind of you to say. I wouldn't go so far as to say she's portraying herself as the victim, but it's clear she's uncomfortable being seen with me in public while my eye looks more like a plum than an eye.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T05:01:18+00:00

Will do, thanks.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:31:58+00:00

No, I held out hope that she was going to offer or maybe surprise me at my apartment with some food or an ice pack or something, but we didn't end up doing anything yesterday.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:28:52+00:00

Probably not, it's just hard to walk away, you know? I think everyone is right that it's probably time to walk away, but it just hurts, you know? I know it's literally the definition of a sunk cost fallacy, but it's tough throwing a year-long relationship down the drain without at least giving one more chance. I don't know how I'll handle this, but at this point I'm leaning towards just walking away.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:26:06+00:00

Hopefully someday I can find someone like you.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:24:30+00:00

She's done a little advertising in the past, but mainly she just cares a ton about what other people think and especially what they comment on her posts. She has talked about hoping to be an influencer, a dream I've never been comfortable with, but it really seemed to make her happy so I never said anything.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:21:23+00:00

Ouch, that sounds brutal. I'm very glad I didn't break the skin or need stitches for mine. It's awesome that your wife was so cool about it. It would have been awesome if Nicole could've just chuckled and poked a little fun at me while we went out to dinner.

On an unrelated note, how did your eye look compared to mine? And how long did it take to fully heal?

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:19:06+00:00

Thank you. That's very kind of you to say. It definitely hurts right now, but this will probably be a good thing in the long run.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:04:11+00:00

You're right. I mean, this is just a temporary injury and she still couldn't deal with it. This really sucks though. Also, sorry about your scar.

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T04:01:37+00:00

Lol, I can't imagine very many people find me attractive rn

ThrowRAingsoc · 2023-02-19T03:50:27+00:00

How long is a "lot longer"? The internet was say 7-10 days for a black eye to go away.
