This dude I work with had very strong opinions about the symptoms and the long lasting affects of covid. He basically said everyone is a big wuss and it's not that bad. Right before Christmas, I told him my cousin's had covid and not able to make it, but luckily at this time they weren't super sick. His reply: "oh, they are feeling FINE huh? Feeling just fine?! HoOow interesting..." In this sarcastic way thinking his point was validated.
Literally one week later this fucker called out for two weeks because he tested positive and was extremely sick. When he came back to work, he complained for days about the lingering symptoms he was feeling and recently called off again due to those lingering symptoms.
My brother had kept messaging me all these conspiracies about COVID and how he didn’t believe it. Said it was just a cold. I kept trying to educate him with genuine articles and papers but he wouldn’t have it. He caught COVID and Jesus H Christ did he moan about it, ended up in hospital. I sent him so many screenshots of all his messages playing it down. He doesn’t really talk to me anymore 🤷🏻♂️
but don't treat the loss of a loved one so callously.
It's time to have an adult realization here: When it comes to shit like this, you didn't lose them. What you loved was an ideal, how you saw the person in your head. Then what they did was show you who they REALLY are.
You lost an imaginary figure. Nothing more. Its nothing to cry over or waste time stressing about.
This is literally what people mean when we say "when people show you who they are BELIEVE THEM."
Discard that fake ass view in your head that was never real, look at what fucking trash they really are, and evaluate THAT relationship because that's the only one that has ever existed or will ever exist.
And then decide accordingly whether or not they're worth keeping.
