[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last year, I had very bad covid anxiety. Post-vaccine, it has gotten much better and I'm pretty much back to normal except for wearing a mask when required by a business.

However, I think I resent my significant other for some things he did last year that I deemed unsafe, both at the time and still in hindsight. For example, frequent work happy hours. His boss would frequently host these indoor happy hours at restaurants (because that's what he was comfortable with) and invite the C-suite level leadership - so my SO felt obligated to go make an appearance. I specifically remember during an argument once, [b]when I told him I was uncomfortable with this, he basically said he wasn't thrilled about it but that he needed to for work.[/b] Anyway, we have been living together for a couple of years at this point, and [b]now that covid is over[/b], I kind of just want to move on but I also kind of think he's not the one if he couldn't see it from my perspective and just stay home, and maybe I should move out? But I'm 30, so that factors in as well. [/quote]
I don't see where the OP's SO was being disrespectful or dismissive of OP. He said didn't want to do it, but needed to for work. Given that they are not married, I can understand his prioritizing his career. What happens to his career if she dumps him, as many on this board are advising her to do? If they were married I could kind of see making a decision that might harm your career for your spouse.

BTW OP, Covid is far from over.[/quote]
She is a vaccinated 30yo with no children. [b]It’s over for her. [/b]Or do you want her to keep being anxious so you can call her hysterical.[/quote]

Unfortunately, that's not the way pandemics work. She may be at little risk of serious illness, but if she hasn't had a booster she can still get infected and infect someone else who may not be vaccinated, be elderly, poor immune system, etc. And that person can infect someone and so on. "Over" would imply she doesn't need to take any precautions or worry about interacting with others, masking and the like. She should still think about these things, she doesn't have to hide under the bed, if only to help protect others.[/quote]

How does any of this help OP? She may be right but she’s still in a dead end relationship.[/quote]
