Ginger...no definitely not excusable. No matter the gender.
The more I read about hickeys the angrier I get. My GF is basically marked by another woman for days now! I'm hurt, insulted...many things. AND then...I think to myself...Did she just get that hickey right away and that was all that happened? Has anyone just gotten a hickey and there's not been anything else that goes with it? Just come up, suck someone's neck and move on? I HIGHLY doubt that. What I mean is I feel like there had to be kissing and other things that went with the hickey. AND OMG...the girl who supposedly did this...she is NOT at all attractive to the point I'm repulsed thinking of her with my GF.
But you know what...in all of my anger over this...with all that's going on right now in the world life and death, I do ask myself does any of this even matter. GF is scared, has several people close to death as is, she has death and the thought of it all around her. Again I don't mean her actions are excusable...I guess I just wonder if now isn't the time for this.
And kinda like before BD...I find myself reading about hickeys and the mental games of those two together gets me anxious again just like back with ExWW after BD.
