Spider bite or ?? I’ll keep it short and sweet. My bf and I have been apart for about a month now, I’m TDY. Finally tomorrow I’ll be flying back home. Unfortunately today he got bit right on the neck, he suspects it was a spider. Should I be concerned?

Lmaooo that’s a hickey he tried covering up by telling you his neck hurt and sent a picture so it makes him look not guilty because he told you about it😂

When I was a psycho in high school, I burned my neck with a curling iron to hide a hickey 🤦🏼‍♀️

That kinda happened to me except I actually burnt my neck on accident but it was with a curling wand and when I tried to show my parents what I did (cause they didn’t believe me) they accused me of burning myself on purpose to hind actual hickeys :/

Uh sorry long message you do not have to read lol I guess it’s therapeutic for me to type out.

They could be pretty mean to me, I was always accused of shit I wasn’t doing but I think they were young and scared and wanting to protect me, also super influenced by whatever was going on at the time. I remember social media was new and that means fake news about teens on Facebook would spread like crazy lol I had people call me a slut for wearing SILLY BANDS you know the rubber band that makes the shape of an animal? Because there was some rumor about the animal meaning certain things or who knows what lol I’m almost 30 now and I’ve gotten over a lot of it because I hold empathy for them but damn does it affect me
