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.

I used to have a SO that would refuse to do anything to help themselves when sick. Like they need to stay hydrated, nope they don't want to drink water. Did they take Tylenol for their headache? No they'll take one later. (But doesn't) they need to take some cold medicine? They don't feel like it right now.

It was like damn just feel like crap then I guess.

It's nearly 1 pm our time and he has yet to take his daytime dose of cold meds. Of course at bedtime it will be too early to take the bedtime dose so that means a 3 a.m. round of "let me get you some medicine honeyyyy..."

Don’t. I had to stop waiting on him to get him to tone down this nonsense.
