I’m usually really diligent with eye protection, actually. We live in the bush so medical attention isn’t close. Chainsawing, chopping firewood, even when I go to collect eggs from the chickens I’m cognizant that those prehistoric creatures could ruin my eyes with one peck. Clearly I underestimated the power of the ol’ cRaZY glue!

Let this be a lesson: when using ANY kind of household chemical, wear eye protection.

Shit, I put on my shooting range glasses when I Windex my mirrors, because I've gotten backspray in my eyes and let me tell you, plain blue Windex stings like a mofo.

Ive been there man but you're still young, you'll find other women you share a connection with. And not rub salt in the wound but it's a good thing you realize this was your fault once you realize your own behavior is problematic you can work to change it, I would recommend you really reflect on yourself and the person you are and ask what else you'd want to change about yourself that is the only way you can grow as person and become the man that you're supposed to be. Pain is the best teacher and regret is a close second now let go of the anger and work on bettering yourself so you'll be ready for the next relationship you find yourself in. Last piece of advice let this girl go, no matter what your heart tells you leave her alone. If the future bring you guys back together than it'll have to be her decision trying to force it or wait out her relationship is only going to prevent you from moving on an finding your true happiniess

You're young so as for being the love of your life I'm not sure this is it BUT I will say yeah this is on you. You treated her horribly and people aren't something you can pick up when it suits and drop. You listened to everyone else. On you. You chose your actions. Let the poor girl be. She deserves to be happy and with someone happy and not indecisive as fuck about what he wants.

Before most social media added the reply feature, I used to copy the message I wanted to respond, and then add a /// to separate my answer. So it would be "[original message] /// [my answer]". Good thing we can reply on most apps nowadays — it's so vital for us fast-brainers.

Just putting this out in case you don't know the trick :)
