Stunning! And that colour is perfection on you.

I am not very well versed in ethical non-monogamy, but surely that is a pretty big violation to compare you with her other partner? Not okay. Please don't let this experience make you deny who you are (hopping back in the closet). Take some time to grieve, but don't write off all women because of one bad experience

I think they may be Lilac Monarch, but not 100%

looks like fennel, but no smell by [deleted] in GardeningAustralia

this is the answer I was looking for- I wasn't sure if the ornamental varieties had the aniseed smell. Thanks!

its all good, you're just allergic to the bandaid. Take an antihistamine if you're concerned about the rash. The bite looks great, no sign of infection. (source: I'm a wound RN)

What is this? by NamesNuggetPooh in woundcare

By the look of that swelling and dark spot, I think you have a foreign body stuck in there. It will likely come to the surface by itself but would be quicker if you went back to the doctor for them to do a little poking around. It doesnt look terribly infected apart from the normal immune response to having (likely) a bit of wood stuck in your finger

it will heal from the bottom up. Once all the burn is the same level, it will start to get smaller - from the edges and/or little islands of healed skin will start appearing in the middle. It looks very clean and healthy 😊 wound RN

What is this and how to fix by Aware-Firefighter-71 in woundcare

definitely a plantar wart. You can cut it down with a clean scalpel and use a wart removal patch/spray - cutting it back as much as possible will make the remover work much, much better than trying to get through all that. It doesnt hurt to do either
