hey so quick question
how do I explain why I bleed ink to my boyfriend

-yes he's already seen it
-I was cutting up vegetables and scratched a finger
-it'd be great if someone could give advice relatively soon because I don't know how long 'I need to lie down and then I'll talk to you about it' will work, he's still panicking he's just not demanding an answer right this second

thanks for the help

It's okay.

[Private]

[thesettingsun]

[Alright. He switches to messaging her directly.]

How bad is it?

Re: [Private]

[me_matey]

well

she doesnt

share my feelings. for one.

[thesettingsun]

I'm sorry.

[It's never easy to learn that, even if you're still friends. Maybe especially if you're still friends.]

[me_matey]

i mean

its fine

we still friends. we still livin together.

its fine. im fine. it is what it is.

[thesettingsun]

It's okay to not be fine with it. You don't have to be strong for this.

[me_matey]

i have to learn to be fine with it because its not changin

[thesettingsun]

You're allowed at least a little time to be upset and binge on ice cream.

[me_matey]

i cant. im afraid if i start, ill never stop being upset over it

[thesettingsun]

You won't. I promise. You'll even feel better sooner if you let yourself express being upset now.

[me_matey]

or ill do somethin stupid and ruin what we still have

[thesettingsun]

You can't hold it in forever. You just can't.

[me_matey]

well

no i cant and i know that, had a whole time gettin almost frozen to death to get that but

idk what else to do

[thesettingsun]

Hanging out with friends, watching movies, and crying into my ice cream usually works for me.

[me_matey]

but i still come home to her

what i want is for that to not hurt. for it to make me happy like it did before my dumb ass went and fell for her

[thesettingsun]

Do you want my honest opinion?

[me_matey]

i mean

ok. i think i can take it. gimme ur worst.

[thesettingsun]

You should move out. At the soonest practical opportunity.

[me_matey]

-...-

its my ship

[thesettingsun]

Ask her to move out. She has family in the area, it'll be fine.

[me_matey]

and live with the sister that wouldnt even tell her she was in town for months on end? or with kei?

hell no

[thesettingsun]

I would rather die than suggest Kei, don't worry.

Doesn't she have a cousin in town?

[me_matey]

ye but hes

like

8 years old or somthn

[thesettingsun]

So he must be living with his parents, who would be Sakura's aunt and uncle.
