For the older posters here, you know the drill. No struggle sessions, keep it nice.
For the newer folks, hi! I'm Corgi! I made these threads from time to time to see if everyone is doing OK. Got something cool you wanna talk about? Need an ear for venting? This is your space! Just be nice, this isn't the thread for arguments.
I made a down payment for next year's wedding recently, and I've been having a BLAST with the Retroid 3+. I've been going to the bar with the pup the last few days and just sitting with a pint and playing MVC2, Twisted Metal Black, Smash, and Mario. Met another Hexbear IRL recently, that was nice!
Hope everyone is doing well! Remember, you are loved 
Baaaad.
Good news: BF recovered from COVID about two weeks ago. Yay!
Bad News: He took up the bottle again for reasons too complex to talk about here. Then he tried to start a fight over something that is a legit grievance(I failed to be attentive to his needs, check in more) but when I tried to deescalate he continued to try and fight, and threatened to follow me if I tried to get away. (
After giving him 24 hours to cool off- he did it again over text.
So, I told him to get his stuff, now he's my ex boyfriend.
I was shocked with his behavior. He's a grief counselor ffs. But he is also a recovering alcoholic and I just met who he is after a weekend bender.
Sucks.
That sounds hard comrade. A partner I had experienced alcohol issues in their family and it really is a challenge for everyone involved.
