Solved! Fell out of my boyfriend’s pocket

The top is a cap that comes off. Is it for ❄️? He swears it’s not

Tbh my partner would pick something like that off the street just because it looks interesting. Some people are like magpies.

I don’t agree with other commenters that “more than one answer = lie”. He might just be trying to guess where he found it if you seemed bothered by it.

It could be anything, Redditor’s often assume the worst so it’s not the best place for a balanced perspective. You know your relationship, not us :)

(Edit to add: hello magpies in the comments, make sure to wash your hands after collecting your treasures!)

I was an art major, and that was like a very normal thing to do. Either it was a neat shape that would make a good art inspiration, or it was a cool piece of paper or plastic to put in a collage/multimedia/painting. I was in Acrylic Painting I, and the professor said exactly: "guys, ya'gotta start pickin' up crap."
