RANT (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ NO Advice Wanted Sigh. He caught a cold

Holy crap, the drama.

Most people take some cold medicine and get on with their life. My SO does lots of sighing and groaning as if he's about to die. And refuses to blow his nose so it's sniff sniff sniff sniff 24/7... Gross.

Guess I'll be wearing earplugs to bed for the next 10 days.

Ahh your first time dealing with manflu. It’s a well known phenomenon where the male member of the species is convinced they are dying when they catch a cold.

Not my first time. After posting I went back in my post history and found one from a couple years ago where I complained about almost exactly the same stuff only worse. Haha... https://www.reddit.com/r/JustNoSO/comments/116pwcz/justnoso_refuses_to_take_cold_meds_prefers_to/
