...See more We all know what this headline means. It's all over the news, it's all people talk about and I can't tell if it's over hyped or if it's actual reality. with this happening in our world, we're being told to wash our hands more than ever, which I've always done anyway. My husband on the other hand, isn't so much. Even before we got married I would always have to remind him to wash his hands. There have been a few times where he'll get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and he won't wash his hands after (I'm a very light sleeper so I wake up very easily). And now because of this pandemic, it's starting to give me anxiety. I constantly remind him, even more so now. It's to the point where if he's been out to a bar or comes home from work or a weekend away at his cabin, I don't even want him to touch me until I've actually seen him wash his hands. and he just tells me I'm too paranoid. I mean no one wants to get sick. Why can't he just wash his damn hands. Sometimes I even think, "if he unknowingly gets this virus and gives it to me and I pass it on to my parents who are older and god forbid something terrible happens since this affects older people the most, I'm going to be done with him. It would be his fault, he killed them because he couldnt take 20 seconds to wash his fucking hands". I feel like this is making me crazy but I needed to let it out. Please tell me I'm overreacting and letting all this get to my head.
