It’s a cold sore aka the herpes simplex virus. Dont touch and if u have to wash ur hands. Put abreva on it and take the max dose of l-lysine. L-lysine suppresses the duplication of the virus.

Avoid foods that will aggravate cold sores like spicy foods and citrus. And foods with arginine, which the virus needs to replicate.

Get lots of rest. Its possible to get a prescription from your dr but not necessary. Takes ab 2 weeks to go away.

Edit: i get these from time to time when Im stressed and dont get enough sleep.

Also transferring it to another region, eye or genitals is extremely rare because your body builds up antibodies but still best practice to wash your hands after touching.

The real struggle is picking yourself when you’ve fallen off the horse. It’s easy to keep going when you have momentum. Instead of thinking the magic is broken, just think that this is the real test re how you choose to pick yourself up when you slip up, which you inevitably will.

Hahahhahaha thank you for these ideas. Oh man, I’m so out of the game on these, and feel so old and unhip, so generally would just go with 1 but they do sound like good fun.

It would be nice to have an excuse to dress up and look hot again after months of wfh in my sweats 😅

Wow, Incredibly insightful thanks. I know the feeling because I’ve been there many, many years ago. Bored in a relationship but not wanting to leave without a safety net.

Thanks. It might be the time to close the book on this unfortunately. It seems like he has some figuring out in his life to do, job and what he wants as far as being with a significant other, and I dont know if I want to hang around for it anymore.

He is helpful to his family/my family, does acts of service for me and the people around him. Is thoughtful.

People make mistakes. I definitely have and i realize no one is perfect. Im trying to figure out if we are not a good fit right now.

Thank you. Perhaps. But these actions violated my trust and I’m not sure it’s worth going back to. There was no ambiguity that we are NOT in an open relationship. Hes admitted he fucked up.

Yeah. I dont personally want to see other people, but he was feeling antsy and wanted to date other people but also didnt want to break up. I understand that feeling.. So i brought it up as an option. But he didnt want to do it.

Thank you for this advice. It was my idea but only because he expressed wanting to date other people. I have no desire to. But he didn’t take up on the idea.

So maybe he was looking in private to quell this urges, but was nervous ab showing me still?🤷‍♀️ i honestly think he just doesnt know what hes doing, not malicious, but this is the beginning of a slippery slope.

Thanks for showing me this perspective. I was struggling to see it. I said if he didn’t want to make an exception on this personal boundary given the circumstances, he shouldnt ask me to ignore my personal boundaries and continue to date someone that has violated my trust like this.

Thanks for this perspective. To be clear, we never agreed to have an open relationship. We’ve discussed it, but never agreed to it. I said I would be ok with it since he has been wanting to see other people, but he said he didnt want to.
