Re: How's it going, FS?

Yeah, I get that you're pissed and maybe you feel like what you do isn't any of your friend's business. And I think everyone is picking their own risks these days, depending on what matters the most to you and keeps you sane. Plus, it all depends on how bad infection rates are in your area.

I'd also say that it's possible your *best friend* is at least somewhat anxious/worried about your safety and transferring that into anger.

Unlike the above anon, that wouldn't be illegal here, but people I know are definitely doing their best not to eat in enclosed spaces with people not in their household. And it doesn't matter if those other people are "strangers" or friends of friends. Plus, the evidence seems to suggest that having had Covid (even recently) doesn't necessarily keep you from getting it again.

SA

Sorry, just ignore that, I guess. Hope you stay healthy and things stay good in your area!

No I don't think you need to retract this at all.

It just never feels like they're coming from a position of "I love you and I'm scared" but as a position of like "You're bad and wrong and I'm unhappy you would be this kind of person" (almost verbatim that last part)

I just didn't even think of Covid at all. It didn't even come into my mind. I had ordered food, went down to get it, and they offered me to join them. I just accepted and ate, not thinking it was anything until I was talking to my friend later and they were like "I can't even speak to you because you're not the person I thought you were." (actual quote) because I didn't remember Covid when meeting new people.

NAYRT, but the other anon from this thread

We're coming out of a pretty terrifying situation. People are going to take varying lengths of time to feel comfortable with normal again, if ever. And it's not as if the virus has even gone away or that the vaccine offers full protection. I'm still scared as hell of it. I've already had it once and it's destroyed my life. I don't want it again.

But i've made my peace with the fact that everyone will see me as an acceptable casualty of getting back to normal.

Sorry, i'm rambling, my point is in general don't be too harsh on your friend, even if she hasn't dealt with this too well. This is an unprecedented situation in our life time and we're all dealing with it in different ways.

NAYRT or any of the anons in this thread--it's possible your friend is just incredibly anxious in general or about COVID specifically, and they're too freaked out to react differently. Maybe they know people who got super sick or died from it.
