The more I think about this the more annoyed I am getting. Just going to spill it and get it off my chest.
My BF of 4 years and I don't live together, although we are looking at moving in together in 2 years, and relocating 250 miles at the same time.
Because of covid we have bubbled up and he had been staying at mine quite a lot. I have 3 children, he has none.
Over the weekend he started to feel unwell, did the symptom checker on the app and it said unlikely to be covid. I kept him dosed up on cold and flu tablets and generally looked after him.
Yesterday he gets a phone call from his boss saying one of his colleagues has a positive covid test and so he needs to have a test. So off he goes for his test. He speaks to the colleague in question and his symptoms are identical.
So the part that had annoyed me is that he keeps kissing me. Even after telling me that he had identical symptoms to the covid positive colleauge. I have asked him several times not to but he thinks it is some kind of joke.
I have pulled him up and told him I am really really annoyed with him and he said he is sure he doesn't have corona and I am over reacting.
My point is it doesn't matter if he has corona or flu or chicken pox or Ebola. The point is that he is ill, and I don't want to be ill, covid or not! He can just laze around being waited on but I have 3 children to look after. The world doesn't stop just because mum gets ill.
So if he gets a negative test like he is convinced he will, he will swan off to work and I will be left feeling ill managing 3 children and working from home.
Plus I assume that if he gets a negative test and I then get symptoms, me and the children will have to carry on isolating until I get a negative test?
Anyway he thinks I am over reacting but I think he is absolutely stupid, selfish and inconsiderate.
I have sent him off to isolate at home. Would you be furious too?
He has been moaning how dreadful he feels all weekend, why would you want to share that to someone you supposedly love! I just don't get where he is coming from at all.
