10. He or she needs to worry about their own health

And not tell you how to take care of yours/ live your life etc. If he is obese/ overweight even if fully vaxed he is at much higher risk for severe covid events. If he is unmasked everywhere he is putting all of us at risk especially those of us who are high risk.

Is he going to be there for you if you are dying from covid, or if you have life long damage/ problems from long covid? I guarantee you no. I would rather take these precautions to take care of myself, and my family than be murdered by covidiots.

I don’t think a friend would do this and they would no longer be my friend if it continued, actually right away for me, lol.

Re: light sensitivity. I have had this for years with migraines, and then even worse with vertigo- I found wearing sunglasses, the big wrap around ones over my glasses helped me a lot. Before needing glasses I used motorcycle goggles also for severe dry eye. For me artificial light is worse. I can tolerate sunlight at certain times of day much better usually.
